The northern and southern traditions are contrasted by the “rugged and heroic” tone of the north and the “relaxed, gentle and exceptionally beautiful” form of the south. These disparate styles are unified by “the intensity that both performers and listeners give to their music as a medium for patriotic expression and as a vehicle carrying the narrative of oral history”.Albania’s political, military and cultural domination by outside elements have contributed to the country’s modern music scene. Albanian music is a fusion of the music of Southeastern Europe, especially that of the Ottoman Empire.
