Melodies are particular to every folk and infer a cultural identity and inner „home“ – even when geographically distanced. Melodies can be misused for radical nationalism, yet in their entirety they are a universal language of mankind that knows no borders. |
„Falk
Zenker asked the invited musicians from Bosnia, Serbia and France, to
bring a traditional melody to the symposium. Kamenko Kulap, Laurence
Bourdin, Bogdan Rankovic and last but not least Falk Zenker himself
proved how each had interpreted something different in the words “traditional
material” be it a traditional instrument or melody. This was irrelevant
as to whether the modus was jazz, improvisation or jam session. They
have spent the last weeks playing to each other and improvising. The
results of the harmonious collaborations were played in the concert
earlier.“ 1.
