Simion Bogdan-Mihai
A nostalgic, homegrown romanian folk artist.
Cobza player, PhD Graduate in Letters, Writer, Lăutar I met my enchanted Cobza - Romanian short necked, unfretted lute very similar to the oud of Iraq and Syria - decisively at the age of 15. Ever since, I've been trying to promote oral music from every province of Romania (both Romanian and of all the cohabiting minorities), to restore the route of this music since its dawn until the present day and to show why this music reflects the society it was born into.
