Medena Ensemble
A group of Aotearoa women, enamoured with Bulgarian Folk Song, led by TUi MAMAKi. This ensemble explores vocal tone, bewitching harmony, playful rhythm and the colourful feminine fabric of a community blend. Medena means "honeyed".
Be they Classic Bulgarian Folk Choir Arrangements, or Obscure Rural Treasure Songs, sometimes arranged for improvisation, these gifts are issues of Tui's relationship with Bulgaria and its enchanted voices.
