Belo Platno - Serbian Traditional Music

I love this music.

Music Characteristics: The main characteristics of the music of Belo Platno are the Balkan modal style, striking female voices and the playing of authentic traditional instruments.

The modal style consists of singing and playing according to modes*.

The musical arrangements for group performances are based on field and other sound recordings. The songs are sung in local slavic dialects.

White Linen is a frequent motive in Serbian folk songs.

As a symbol of purity, white linen follows a man through life: at birth, he is swaddled in it; at his baptism – wrapped in it; at his wedding – bound by it; 

as a wedding guest – presented with it; during his life he wears it, and is finally shrouded in it.

There is particularly a large number of songs in which a young girl bleaches linen or weaves it on a loom. 

The symbolism of whiteness is multiple and refers not only to looks (face, hands, breasts) but to qualities as well (chastity, gentleness, purity).
