This book represents a group of individual musical essays collected under common Albanian themes, with a particular focus on historical identities and traditional musical performance. It shows that, at the beginning of the 18th century, there was a growing interest in representing the Albanian hero Scanderbeg on the operatic stage, as some well-known composers of baroque music began to place a greater emphasis on music’s dramatic power to elicit emotional response. The book also notes that this sense of drama was also incorporated into the vocal forms such as opera.
Eno Koço was awarded his PhD at Leeds University, UK, in 1998, and has given papers on the music of Albania at various universities and scientific research centres such as Limerick, Leeds, London, Palermo, Bologna, Cagliari, Tirana, Tbilisi and Thessaloniki. He is the author of several books on Albanian music, including Albanian Lyric Song in the 1930s (2004), A Journey of the Vocal Iso(n) (2015) and Traditional Songs and Music of the Korçë Region of Albania (2018), as well as a number of articles.
