		The viola is a stringed musical instrument which serves as the middle voice of the violin family, between the upper lines played by the violin and the lower lines played by the cello and double bass.
		The CsÃ¡ngÃ³s have a distinct Hungarian dialect and ancient music, and are known for a sort of percussive cello called a gardon.
		In the end of the 1990s, the Maramuzical music festival was organized to draw attention to the indigenous music of the area.

	Romanian Gypsy Musicians
		Gypsy musicians working as purveyors of traditional music in rural villages as well as larger towns had to know the various regional repertoire, to be always prepared to acquire new music, and to creatively adapt older music for new occasions.
		The touchstone of Romanian traditional music is the cry of the gypsy on his violin, the dazzling virtuosity of the tambal (the chromatic, multi-stringed hammered dulcimer), and the lament of the gypsy singer, improvising vivid reverie which never fails to touch the heart of any Romanian.
		On the other hand, when engaged in music they are invested with special rights and authority (they are masters of ceremonies and their word is obeyed with no complaint or protest), and they suddenly become everybody's beloved friends, and are rewarded lavishly.

	Django Reinhardt’s Gypsy Jazz music ::
		Django was born in a caravan at a crossroads in the Belgian countryside on January 23, 1910.
		This music seemed to impress Django because he took his guitar and accompanied my improvisation.” Together, they toyed with Stéphane’s melody, trading choruses, improvising over the theme, throwing in licks they had picked up listening to 78s, copping the stylings of their American to transport themselves far from the stilted elegance of the Claridge.
		Manouche and Gitans proudly played Django’s music and pronounced it mare gilia—“our music.” His legacy had been on the verge of being lost; now suddenly, it was positioned to become a mainstay of their cultural heritage.

	Gypsy Music Festival (Part One) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The mournful polyphony exploded finally into infectious dance rhythms accompanied by guitars, violins, mouth music, the sharp tap of tin spoons, young men's muffled bootheels thudding on bare boards, and the cavernous enclosed echo of milk-jug percussion.
		Perhaps the divine feminine is understood by these Gypsies as being a little more incarnated, a little more accessible, than the remote concepts of divinity with which we gadje are comfortable.
		As if deliberately to highlight the tensions between Swiss and Gypsy cultures, all of these incredible invocations from the Gypsies were schizophrenically interspersed with the hymns, readings, recitations, and the standing up and sitting down rituals of the regular church service.

		The Hungarian instrumental dance music of the early 19th century--so-called "verbunkos" music--along with Hungarian popular songs ("magyar nóta" in Hungarian) and the csárdás, are referred to even by Hungarians themselves using one word, cigányzene (Gypsy music), if a Gypsy band happens to be playing them.
		To be able to assess properly the music played by them--particularly if one takes into account the role of rural Gypsy musicians too--it is essential to have a thorough understanding of the whole of the Hungarian musical tradition, both written and unwritten, since that is the context in which it emerged and developed.
		Verbunkos music went out of fashion in the second half of the 19th century; at its demise sheet music was needed to revive the few tunes which are still played now and then by musicians today.

	Gypsy Music: an overview by Michal Shapiro
		Gypsy Jazz...Because the Roma have lived and played in such diverse lands, a bewilderingly wide assortment of music can all be lumped into the generic category of "Gypsy Music." For the new listener, a bit of explanation will make the searching and buying process clearer.
		Flamenco music is probably Europe’s most famous folk music, and though many Spaniards may tell you that flamenco is NOT solely a Gypsy invention, their contribution is so formidable, that they have become synonymous with it.
		The music that Hungarian Roma played while busking on the street, or in the country is quite different, entirely a capella, with the exception of hand clapping and milk-can percussion.

		The Gypsy Road is a compilation of performers from a dozen different countries, reflecting the gypsies' movement from northwest India to Southern Spain and even to Russia and Eastern Europe.
		The music is not the hyper-speed rhythm of its Serbian and Romanian neighbors.
		While their music is not authentic flamenco, the success has kindled interest in the real stuff: the gut-wrenching, throat-ripping music that first boiled up from Andalusia in the 1600s.

		Sadly the music of this people has been neglected as they have always been looked down upon as thieves and bandits, a point which is unfortunately undeniable, though over-emphasized.
		The gypsy band is apparently the mainstay and one of the most important components of a gypsy tribe.
		The gypsy band itself offers accompaniment, even though it is by no means the most sympathatic -- in fact ensemble often breaks down -- the players obviously have fun playing and they are clearly virtuoso players in their own right.

		Putumayo's compilation of gypsy music follows their usual vein of output: palatable introduction for neophytes, but not always the most inspiring or brilliant material.
		Think of this compilation as the junior high school of gypsy music: important and providing the necessary foundations for further study, but by no means the apex of achievement.

		The virus, dubbed Antiman.A, was discovered at the end of April and duped users into executing its payload by pretending to contain news about three Romanian journalists that had been kidnapped.
		At the time, BitDefender's chief technology officer Bogdan Dumitru said the virus writer was obviously a Romanian citizen that had "deep discontent" with gypsy music in Romania.
