- AI Overview
- Eno Koco's "Albanian Urban Lyric Song in the 1930s" published by Scarecrow Press, received a Certificate of Merit for Best Research in General History of Recorded Sound. This book was recognized for its groundbreaking contribution to the field of ethnomusicology, particularly for its focus on a previously overlooked urban song repertoire from southeastern Europe. The study sheds light on musical life in Albania during the early 20th century, offering valuable insights for scholars and enthusiasts alike.
- The book delves into the Albanian urban lyric song of the 1930s, analyzing its composers, performers, and the songs themselves. It explores the indigenous musical modes used in these songs and classifies them within a newly established framework of south-western Balkan modes. Koco's work also examines the development of the genre from traditional Albanian urban songs to a more artful form, which was then integrated into classical repertoires.
- The book is complemented by two music CDs, making it a rich resource for those interested in Balkan music, ethnomusicology, and the history of recorded sound. Barnes & Noble notes it is a must-have for university libraries supporting related academic programs.
