Celebrating Macedonian Independence with the Queen of the Gypsies (Qype does London)

Qype does London
September 9th 2008



The event was my first BYOT (bring your own tambourine) concert, and I was much impressed with the variety of

It would have been impossible not to have danced – the steady rhythm laid firm foundation to the flittering melodies as Esma’s voice soared. The song tempos darted from frenetic to insanely frenetic, while every now and again dipping into mournful.
