FOREWORD

The author, composer, arranger, and editor of the electronic book “Pearls of Bulgarian Folklore” “New Songs from the Pazardzhik Region” Part Ninth is the folklore singer Ivanka Ivanova Pietrek, whose artistic name is Ivanka Ivanova. Her songs haven’t been published, they’re created by her after samples from authentic folk songs from the Pazardzhik region, which she has collected for years.

The roots of being Bulgarian are exactly in the folklore arts as a whole, and this is her goal – for them to be preserved and passed on to the future generations.

The specifics of the Pazardzhik Folklore Region

It is a specific part of the Thracian folklore region and it is a mixed region from the folklore point of view. It is influenced on the Thracian, the Rhodope, the Pirin and the Sofia sing tradition. It is characterized by a large variety of beats. A two-voice part is detached from the town of Vakarel to the Topolnitsa river and there are two singers in a band in Sestrimo and Varvara villages.

The songs in two voices with dynamic second voice are separated around Velingrad town. The highest interval between the first and the second voice is fourth.

The Western part of the Thracian lowland begins from Pazardzhik town. The town is a juncture between Europe and Asia. The pause between the couplets is typical for the singing of the region. The common beats here are 2/4- Pravo horo, 11/16- Krivo horo, 7/8- ruchenitsa, 5/8- Paidushko horo, 9/8- Daichovo horo, 13/16…and mixed beats like 5/8 + 9/8- Yovino horo. The slow songs have the typical throat trembling (modulating of the sound). The songs are thematically various: harvesting, heroic, mythical, haidouk, love, songs for table, for work and working-bee.

The traditional instruments are wooden flute, bagpipe (dzhura), rebec, tambourine and drum.

Kade hodilo svirilo,

Izlaga Yanka chichova,

ta e sas nego tragnala.

Varveli, shto sa varveli,

minali gora zelena.

Nastali pole shiroko,

sred pole darvo visoko.

Te sa na syanka sednali,

dvamata da si pochinat.

Na darvo pee slaveyche,

to si na Yanka dumashe:

„Yanke le, moma hubava,

and where he went he played.

Where he went he played

and he loved younger maids,

he loved younger maids

but older maids he fooled.

He fooled Yanka, my uncle’s daughter,

into leaving with him.

So they went and went,

past a green forest.

They came to a wide field

with a tall tree in the middle.

Тhey sat in the shade

together to rest.

A nightingale was singing in the tree,

and was saying to Yanka:

“Yanka, beautiful maid,

go back, Yanka!

Тhis boy is married

he has a wife,

he has a wife

and tiny young kids!”

„Hayde Yano, mori, hayde Yanke!

Hayde Yano, hayde Yanke!

Da ideme, mori, gore, dole,

gore, dole v ravno pole,

da gledame, mori, popovite,

popovite dvama sina.

Ti shte vzemesh, mori, po-malkiya,

az shte vzema po-stariya,

da staneme, mori, dve etarvi

da ne delim nashte dari!”

2. Two maids, I say, have been living

Two maids, I say, have been living,

two maids have been friends

they have been weaving the same cloth

and preparing gifts together .

So the two, I say, have been talking

so the two have been talking:

“Come on Yano, I say, come on Yanka!

Come on Yano, I say, come on Yanka!

Let’s go, I say, up and down,

up and down to the flat fields,

to see, I say, the priest’s

the priest’s two sons.

You will marry, I say, the younger one,

I will marry the older one,

so we will be sisters-in-law

so we don’t have to split our gifts!”
