Because of his friendly support our visit of Spain was so successful. He was our guide for mediterranean music and culture and alwayse in a stand by mode to translate for us during the whole trip.
21-23 July, Boltana 2006
The organizers of Conspiremus let Vladiswar Nadishana to open the concert program of the festival. Nadishana presented there his solo program with such instruments as kalyuka, jews harp, frame drum, mandola, ghost catcher etc. His consummate playing on unknown for a spanish public music instruments impressed the audience a lot. And the performance of Nadishana was acknowledged as the best one.
We were very happy about the fact that habitants of Spain keep and develop their music traditions. The rich stands of music instruments' makers and a large number of people (mostly young) were the best arguments for it. We appreciate everybody we met during our visit to Spain for their hospitality, opennes, friendliness and kindly support.
