The two musicians from the Arbanas community in Dalmatia, primarily residing in the idyllic Zadar region in Croatia and its pristine surroundings bordering the Adriatic Sea, have preserved and reworked the once forgotten traditional songs of their community.

Dina Bušić and Melita Ivković have joined forces to rework and perform old-time songs of a collection they have arranged and cultivated over the years.

“The concert took place in the framework of the International Workshop on the Albanian Language, Literature and Culture in a bid to further strengthen the sense of identity and cultural heritage preservation,” the Arberesh Research and Publication Centre said.
