Barcelona Gipsy Balkan Orchestra (bgko)
Nova Era
This is the first album of a truly new era marked by the addition of Margherita Abita, the Sicilian singer who has given new strength and unity to the project. In the break in which the band found themselves has permited them to experiment with a new creative process which is reflected in this powerful production. They have entered a new stage in the journey of their eclectic band. 'Nova Era' (in Esperanto) connects them with the past while projecting into the future. This work demonstrates anew how BGKO is able to adapt and evolve, combining the individual choices of its members with the current historic world situation. A new era begins for BGKO, with renewed energy and great enthusiasm, for which they are fortunate to have the freshness and drive of a good friend and singer as the first collaboration in this new adventure. The BGKO family feels stronger than ever and eager to share new repertoire and introduce their new singer!
