CUCUK (Ma-No
MNCD001), with Son Of Slavster. This raw, getting-down-to-business performance is
the only recording of Miroslav's Los Angeles based quartet. The band operated between 1995
and 1998, and built a large fan base playing loud and funky versions of Macedonian,
Serbian and Gypsy tunes and using influences which ranged from Indian Classical to Surf
music. Featuring Anand Bennett on electric violin, Courtney Bishop on bass and Bryon
Holley on drums. Available in former Yugoslavia
KRUSHEVO
(M044A). In this recent offering from M.A Recordings, Miroslav is joined by one of
Macedonia's best known musicians, the acclaimed guitarist Vlatko Stefanovski. The duo
recorded a set of ten traditional Macedonian songs and dances inside a unique national
monument in the city of Krusevo, Macedonia. This 96 kHz audiophile recording captures the
astounding acoustics of that space, as well as the performances which are dynamic,
colorful, intimate and virtuostic at the same time. Available
WINDOW MIRROR
(M016A). This solo guitar recording contains J.S.Bach's Suite for Lute BWV 995 and
Miroslav's own suite of East European songs and dances called "Laments, Dances and
Lullabyes." The recording was made at the Harmony Hall in Matsumoto, Japan, where
Miroslav's sound was beautifully captured by the master of one-point recording Todd
Garfinkle. The January 1997 issue of Guitar Player magazine called it
"breathtaking." Available

L. Shankar and folk music of Macedonia. Available

Belgrade, Yugoslavia, a space noted for its unique acoustics. Available
