Comments:    No amount of listening to 1930s gypsy jazz will prepare you for this raw, thrilling document of Romanian gypsy dance music circa 1970. Violinist Ion Ptere Stoican leads a large ensemble here, but the dominant voices are his violin and the cimbalom, a hammered dulcimer that improvises alongside him like a jazz piano. Unique, fascinating and fun. (RA) 02/01/06 >> go there
