Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract This thesis is a contribution towards an historically informed understanding of contemporary music making amongst Roma in Ostrava, Czech Republic. It also challenges, from a theoretical perspective, conceptions of relationships between music and discourses of ‘race’. My research is based on fieldwork conducted in Ostrava, between August 2003 and July 2004 and East Slovakia in July 2004, as well as archival research in Ostrava and Vienna. These fieldwork experiences compelled me to explore music and ideas of ‘race’ through discourses of diaspora in order to assist in conceptualising and interpreting Romani music making in Ostrava. The vast majority of Roma in Ostrava are post-World War II emigres or descendants of emigres from East Slovakia. In contemporary Ostrava, most Roma live on the socio­ economic margins and are most often regarded as a separate ‘race’ with a separate culture from the dominant population.

With the aim to tackle them, an interesting strategy is the study of food and ingredients with satiety properties. In addition to reducing food and/or calorie intake, this type of foods must be included as part of a healthy diet. With regard to this, it is well known that the Mediterranean Diet (MD) is a feeding pattern that helps us to maintain good health, providing an adequate intake of micronutrients and active compounds. With this background, the main aim of this research was to identify MD foods with a high satiating potential capacity. For this purpose, three typical foods of the Mediterranean region, mainly based on vegetables, were selected: hummus, ajoblanco and gazpacho. As a control, white bread was used. Twenty-four human healthy volunteers consumed a standard breakfast followed by the different typical Mediterranean foods, and then the subjective sensation of hunger and satiety for each food was assessed by visual analogue scales (VAS) during 3 h. Subsequently, volunteers had ad libitum access to a standard meal.

Tis paper focuses on the interplay between the political regime, musical life in Bulgaria, and the status of Bulgarian composers. Many books, articles, conferences and PhDs have been presented recently in the feld of cultural studies, promoting a multidisciplinary approach in several felds. A new approach tothis dynamic period would clarify the overall development of Bulgarian musical culture in the twentieth century. Keywords: music, political aspects, Bulgaria, history of the twentieth century, Bulgarian composers Introduction This article focuses on the interplay between the political regime, musical life in Bulgaria and the status of Bulgarian composers between 1944 and 1989. My interest in the history and problems of Bulgarian composers and specifically in the politicization of music during the period of totalitarian rule in Bulgaria (1944–1989) stems from the early days of my musical career and my childhood. Music written by Bulgarian composers has significantly influenced me over the period of my formal education.

La cocina andaluza se basa en ingredientes autóctonos muy apreciados, cocinados de manera tradicional y sencilla pero bien condimentados. Tres de los aspectos que condicionan la base de la gastronomía andaluza son, los ingredientes autóctonos diferenciados entre las zonas de costa y la de interior, el legado de la cocina andalusí y los platos y técnicas tradi- cionales siguiendo el calendario litúrgico. Ingredientes autóctonos El enclave geográfico, los distintos espacios naturales (bosques, montañas, ríos, campiñas, vegas, dehesas, etc.), y la extensa línea de costa, crean las condiciones idóneas para el cultivo de una gran variedad de vegetales y para la cría o la captura de un gran número de especies, tanto terrestres como acuáticas que representan la oferta gastronómica. Es una cocina que forma parte de la dieta mediterránea con predominio de frutas y verduras, carne, pescado y frutos secos.

  • Post- Communist Bulgaria Challenges National Folklore Tradition
    IMPROVISATION AND VARIATION: POST- COMMUNIST BULGARIA CHALLENGES NATIONAL FOLKLORE TRADITION Elka Agoston-Nikolova Abstract: The paper discusses the tension in post-totalitarian Bulgaria be- tween the national folklore tradition of Communist times with government- sanctioned state ensembles and festivals and age-old Balkan multiculturalism now represented in a westernized free-market consumer society, where sponta- neity and improvisation bridge the urban and the rural, the local and the global. Folk pop, folk jazz or other mixed genres reverberate with humor, parody and, above all, freedom and love of improvisation. Key words: chalga, high and low culture, individual dynamic folklore improvi- zation, national folklore tradition, state folk ensembles, wedding orchestras “Communism was… modernity streamlined, purified of the last shred of the chaotic, the irrational, the spon- taneous, the unpredictable.” (Bauman 1992: 2) The Communist view on folk and intelligentsia focused on the necessity to preserve and elevate folk culture. This idea was not new. Ever since the 19th century when Herder’s theory of Volk und Seehle conquered the National Re- vivals on the Balkans, folklore traditions became part of the national ideology and great efforts were made not only to preserve the folklore tradition but also to purify it of contamination. The Communist state spent generously on new state and amateur folk ensembles, village music collectives, national folk fes- tivals, building up a wide network of professionally trained folk musicians. In contrast, the ‘town culture’ of before the Second World War, which developed in a multiethnic environment, was rejected. In the towns Bulgarian folk music mingled with Jewish and Gypsy improvisational talent on numerous occasions: at fairs, markets, birthday and name day celebrations, wedding feasts.
