  Article:   MICA ŢIGANIADA OR THE ADVENTURE OF THE ROMANIAN FOLK-ROCK DURING THE COMMUNIST PERIOD / MICA ŢIGANIADA OU L’AVENTURE DU FOLK-ROCK ROUMAIN PENDANT LA PÉRIODE COMMUNISTE.

  Abstract:  

Mica Tiganiada is a Romanian folk-rock music composed by Phoenix in 1972, during the communist era, when rock music was forbidden. Therefore, the composers had to adapt their rock music to the “accepted” items: the folklore. This is an excellent example of mixing the aksak rhythm, the rock ensemble, the women choir and the violin into a coherent piece of music.

Keywords: folk-rock, Transylvania, Phoenix, Romania, communism, aksak, Brăiloiu, gipsy, Todorov.
