History is reflected in the words of folk songs sung by some of our folk bands

Albertina - - A schooner was built on the Baltic - Albertina, that was the schooner's name. - Pump her dry! - Albertina says the story, - Albertina's all for glory - Albertina, that was the schooner's name. - Pump her dry! - Chorus: - Albertina says the story, - Albertina's all for glory - Albertina, that was the schooner's name. - - 2. And the schooner is painted already, - She is painted in red and violet - Pump her dry! - She is painted, says the story, - She is painted all for glory, - She is painted in red and violet. - Pump her dry! - Chorus: - - 3. And the schooner is rigged out already, - She is rigged out with tackles and with ropes, - Pump her dry! - She is rigged out, says the story, - She is rigged out all for glory, - She is rigged out with tackles and with ropes. - Pump her dry! - Chorus:

Quotations about Folk Bands.

A sample of what has been written about folk bands. A Quotation:-

There are in the music of the violin ... accents so closely akin to those ofcertain contralto voices that one has the illusion that a singer has taken her place amid the orchestra. One raises one’s eyes, and sees only the wooden case, delicate as a Chinese box, but at moments, one is still tricked by the Siren’s deceiving call; at times too, one thinks one is listening to a captive genie struggling in the darkness of the sapient, quivering and enchanted box, like a devil immersed in a stoup of holy water; sometimes, again, it is in the air, at large, like a pure and supernatural being that unfolds its invisible message as it goes by. Marcel Proust
