Moj e
Bukura Moré (My
Beautiful Morea) has its
origin in Southern Italy,
in Calabria, where an
Albanian community has
lived for more than 500
years, and so has the
song! The tenderness of
the melodic lines
expresses the natural
beauty of the distant
homeland, which according
to legend can be seen
from the Calabrian
mountain-tops. As in most
folk songs, this tune is
remarkably short; the
melody itself has not
been altered, but has
been extended, enriched
in texture and presented
in different ways. The
melodic lines serve as a
point of departure for
the proliferation of a
distinct harmonic
vocabulary. TS.
