We are so excited!<br />
The day was long but we believe that the result is perfect. Tomorrow we are going to listen all of the songs that we have recorded during this week and then probably decide the order of the pieces in the CD. Stay tuned ;)finnobalkanvoiceshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03202184522338662953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7819209948412994794.post-68695521507926945622013-08-28T23:09:00.003-07:002013-08-28T23:12:28.537-07:00Wednesday = Quartet dayYesterday we worked with our quartet songs. In the morning Vaya Quartet sung Gancho Gavasov's arrangement from traditional tunes from Shopluk region. In the afternoon Mamo sung Mira's beautiful composition "Minä pyy pesätön lintu" and Metsän sävel, traditional tunes from Ingria. Juulia was bit ill but she was singing with good attitude! Day was nice and there was time to relax too and spent more time with families. Mamo (and mamo means a mother) has 8 kids all together so this is the place say enormous <b>thanks</b> to fathers and babysitters during these weeks. Today we'll work again as octet and it will be long day I quess.<br />

During our lunch brake we had an opportunity to see some of the concert halls in the <a href="http://www.musiikkitalo.fi/web/en/">Helsinki Music Centre</a>. Of course we had to try out the acoustics! Here is a short video from the <a href="http://www.musiikkitalo.fi/web/en/organo">Organo</a> hall.<br />

Tomorrow we will start very early in the morning and become really pretty with the help of Leena from Svenska Teatern (the Swedich Theatre in Helsinki). Then we will have a photo shoot with Kai Bäckström, let's hope for good weather. And then some more singing again!<br />

Here we are! Our first day at the new incredible Music House went pretty well!! For welcome we have got lovely presents from our dear MAMO's (Moomin coffee cups). THANK YOU! The day went very fast. We did a good work and we'll continue tomorrow. The morning will be very exciting! Expect more info here and on our Facebook page.finnobalkanvoiceshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03202184522338662953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7819209948412994794.post-68186749774194244582013-08-22T11:10:00.001-07:002013-08-22T11:26:09.634-07:00Singing and surprise<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Vaya came to Helsinki last night and now all group is here after big adventures! It was emotional to meet when two years has passed by. We practise in Music House's 7th floor in Sibelius Academy Folk Music Departement. It's wonderful we got an oppoturnity to practise there and Folk Music Departement is sponsoring our studio next week, so we say BIG thanks for them!<br /><br />Second day was very intense. We started with old Bulgarian songs we already know, turned into Finnish songs and then practised new arrangement of tradional Bulgarian song Snohsti e Dobra, arranged by young talent Gantcho Gavasov from Plovdiv. Also we met woman with good heart (as Iliana described her later), producer Aino Roivainen, who after few phone calls and emails got Kalevala Koru <a href="http://www.kalevalakoru.fi/">http://www.kalevalakoru.fi/</a> be our sponsor on coming weekend when we'll take our promotional photos. So early tomorrow morning we'll go to Kalevala Koru in Pitäjänmäki!</span><br />

It's called "säätö". Many musicians are using word often, no wonder why. This day was quite full of "säätö". I don't even remember all things we had to arrange... Embassy driver had wrote my number wrong and Dora couldn't catch me in the morning. We didn't know where she is. Then after some episodes Dora is suddenly in front our suburb's Alepa (grocery) and sits few minutes later in our - not so quests prepared- kitchen. Everything will really be arranged. You should just has to accept "säätö" is part of this kind of projects (sometimes quite a big part). Yes - - - and Vaya should be in the plane now!</span><br />

Mamo and Dora (+kids) met in Music House at midday, got lunch and started working. It's wonderful to get involved again to different vocal timbres and expression with Dora. We expect Vaya come this night. It seems reason they didn't catch the flight was flight company had gave two different time to the same flight! We wait you Vaya!</span><br />

missed the flight at the Sofia airport. Let's hope they are OK and they have no
problems to find the new flight. By coincidence (from 2 years ago) I had mobile
number of driver of Bulgarian Embassy (who will pick Dora Hristova up from
airport at midnight) and he promised to tell her that girls are still in Sofia and Dora should call me tomorrow morning to
make a new plan... But in first case - let's hope Vaya is coming SOON... Mix of order/chaos started before I expected. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

we had tournee in Finland. After that has happened SO many things and lots of
hours has been used to make recordings possible. Applying grants & finding
sponsors and finding suitable time (one is pregnant, they have wedding, other
is pregnant, oh, she's also pregnant, they move to another country and oh,
she's pregnant again!). And also we had not so happy moments when one singer
got seriously ill and we had to finally find a new singer.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
