Tamburitza Rroma is
a band that formed out of the 2001 World Music Festival in Chicago.
There were a few of us that wanted to perform some gypsy music. So
we assembled some people that enjoyed playing that type of music.
Our first appearance was at the Hot House, an international venue
in Chicago. We enjoyed a nice reception from our audience and we're
asked perform there again.
Our members include tamburashi from the
Chicago area. Joe Modrich, Steve and Dan Ovanin, George Ivancevich,
Pet Naumovski and Joe Kirin. Most of the members play in other tambura
groups as well.
We will continue to perform as long as people are interested.
Recently, We performed at the University of Chicago 42nd annual Folk
Festival. We also gave an hour workshop on the tambura.
Next up for us is Bronkos in Crown point Indiana. This is a very loose
atmosphere venue and known for big time partying. After that we will
make another appearance at the Hot House in Chicago. 31 E Balbo.
