Jelem Romale on 19/01/2008 at Folk iim fire castle in Bad Honnef
"Do you know where this castle is the fire?". The question came from a woman out of a car with Neuwieder indicator. She was already gone past it, I showed her the way and went there myself. Prior to his steps also drew a couple on the grounds of the seven Mountains Grammar School. I had the feeling that it would perform that evening, and I set up a standing-room. The feeling trough not, in legible text of the poster Jelem Romale was "sold out" with a bear. want, but I still had not, because organizer Jutta Mensing had held chairs for the press free, and the press, which included representatives of the Rhein-Sieg-Rundschau, their camera-toting reporter but was rather sideways, as to sit down, the rhinestones, of which a couple was there, and the folky newsletter, so my humble self. Such a service I praise me!
Jelem Romale is a quartet that specializes in Russian Gypsy music, and yes, that otherwise often ostracized word "Gypsy" was used because it is so common in Russia, where no disrespect Connotation have. The Quartet consists of Claude Bernad of the Ahr (vocals), Sabina Danilov from Azerbaijan (violin and vocals), Georg Kremlin from eastern Siberia, but of German descent (guitar and vocals) and Vladimir Belau from Kazakhstan (guitar and vocals).
the foyer of the lodge fire was so proppevoll. Jelem Romale had also been frequently played in the area, be it in Bungertshof, the Charly Festival in Bad Godesberg, or just at the Ahr. And they have earned a Fanpublikum that followed them now in the fire palace. Therein which were also Gerd and Martina Schinkel, the quartet had already in her closet as a guest. So now that promised to become a first class evening. And yes, it was a beautiful evening. Claudia sang mostly, the third song was disputed by the other three, who accompanied them but otherwise, with their instruments. Here I play the violin very well liked, because Sabina mostly hovered around the hymn tune with a second vote. The guitars were for an intro to the often have a French singer to follow, usually with simple chords, but also because there were more complex games. The center was formed but without a doubt the song. The songs were probably all sorts of things like love and poverty, Heimatlosgkeit and the vastness of Russia and Eastern Europe. Since I can not speak Russian but yes, they could also act by anything else. A morale Combination of melody, tempo, rhythm, key and so on and a text content on the other hand did not come with me. For me it just sounded partly Russian, partly in general Eastern European, not infrequently, Yiddish, but Yiddish klezmer music is after all from the cultural area. The music was mostly very spirited, but to me it was still wanting in polyphony and variation in wealth. What me at Ta Alania then eventually became so enthusiastic and my initial difficulty for me to listen in, overcame, after I waited in vain. What I did was very close, however, an undercurrent of melancholy behind or under the temperament. Maybe because the movies play in, in which was a dissolute and joyful celebration of Gypsies or Jews by encroaching thugs of Nazis or the like over and destroyed. Perhaps it is also true that these two ethnic groups as often pogroms was exposed to the joyous in their songs reflect. I
the concert was so beautiful, but it was not so much cheering wildly enthusiastic as the majority of the audience. I went before the addition was, but not in it, but only because I wanted to get the train instead of having to wait half an hour at the bus stop. After all, the line is 66 a hour on the way to Siegburg. And so I ran it and came after five minutes for the most part downhill sprint at the same time leading to the train at the stop.
