It is pretty hard to be unique in today's world where everything looks like each other. Authors,architectures,sportsmen,musicians even artists are reiterate things what have been done in the past.Even so, there are some people try to do something different although the number of them is very few. Today we will listen a band which has specific songs.


   Orange Blossom is a specific music group which consisted of members from different countries.It founded in Nantes(France) in 1993. The name of Orange Blossom came from a train:"Orange Blossom Special" was a passenger train between New York City and Miami.There is also a charming fiddle tune with the same name.Anyway, although it was founded in 1993 the band hadn't created any remarkable music until 2005. They tried to make Franco-Arabic music in acoustic style with violin,guitar and accordion at first.Then they lost some members of the band. After that, they changed their music. They started to mix their music with electro-based instruments and they were trying new music samples from other countries. Finally they discovered a great ground for their style:It was a mix of electronic and world music.

     After tough years  they released their second album, Everything Must Change in 2005 and their destiny had changed with this album. Indeed, they changed a lot of things with this album.Everything must change! This is the loud sound of rebellion dear friends. If you are happy you can't change anything easily in your life. Obviously past was hard for them. I think they were wandering at the edge of cliffs. That is why they wanted to change everything. I am so happy for their achievement.


    Now, they have a multicultural face. Their music doesn't belong to a distinct region. When you listen their music, sometimes you feel in Egypt, sometimes in Morocco, sometimes in France and sometimes in South America.  Let's listen some of them.

    One of the most interesting and mysterious element in this world is miracle. Many of us believe miracles while many of us doesn't believe them. Maybe we contextualize the things we haven't met as miracle until we meet it.  Even so, we would like to coincidence with a miracle. When I listened Elena Ledda for the first time, I found her songs miracle-like.      Elena Ledda is an Italian composer. She usually sings traditional Sardinian* folk songs. Actually she was an opera singer but went for an other way. She chose singing Sardinian songs. I think she discovered something we can't see in folk songs. Maybe her root pull her into that genre of music.      Elena Ledda is also a special name. As you know, Helen was daughter of Leda and Zeus in Greek mythology. I don't know whether it is her real name or not but seems it is not her real name.      Elena has many different songs. She has both joyful folk songs...

        There is an unusual Japanese word: Boketto. It means gazing vacantly into the distance without thinking. Sometimes you listen some sort of musics and boketto mood occurs. When I listen Anna RF it happens to me. So, who is Anna RF? Let's discuss about it.         Anna RF is a band which has three main members. I told "main members". Because you can see different faces in their movie clips.         Anna RF means "I don't know" in Arabic-Hebrew language.         Their music is basically mid-east music although they use electronic instruments. They try to mix East music and West music but they are well known with their Eastern style musics. Moreover, they wear Eastern style clothes in their most of movie clips. I like their traditional trousers, vests and dresses) Sometimes they looks so funny and enjoyable in these clothes. I like "jump" and "gozleme" as their funny movie clips.   ...

   It is very hard to talk about masters. You try to say words adorned with praise but it beggars description. Nevertheless, I will try to write about Itzhak Perlman.          Itzhak Perlman is widely considered the greatest living violinist. He started to play violin when he was four years old. At the same age he was struck with infantile paralysis but he didn't give up playing violin. At this point, he had pretty difficult times. Because children want to run or want to play.On the other hand, being handicapped was a big obstacle for his career. Nevertheless, his talent surprassed all obstacles.He says that people who assert their inabilities as the reason of their failures should take a lesson from his life. Here one of his performance when he was 13.                                                     ...
