welcome to circa slovenia tonight we're here to hear the wind band or goldba as it is known
locally here they're performing a medley from jesus christ superstar which is fitting because
certain it gets its name after church there's been many churches here for over a thousand years
they survived an attack from the turks around the 15th century and buildings behind this band are
where people would hide from the incoming raids here we're enjoying bohemian rhapsody after the
goldbaugh wind symphony we had the big band but i was expecting a bigger band and as the night
went on the wind increased making it increasingly difficult for the musicians to read their music
tunisia tunisia cool
the wind finally won as the storm blew in knocking the sheet music flying across the parking lot
this kind lady was nice enough to pick it up after checking it out she delivered
it over to the maestro but i guess she just wanted to play some games with him
it was such a pleasure to listen to this band on the thursday night
slovenia really treasures its music and culture here
enough with the music now on to my favorite part the food this one is pleskovitza it is a serbian
national dish that is popular across the former yugoslavia and gaining traction all across europe
it is a mix of various meats and it clearly just looks like a thin hamburger
the wind was not very kind on my hair this evening but i was looking at this
plasco pizza with admiration balkan hamburger how it's called hamburger no
but hey
and that was our night out in cirque niza i really enjoyed listening to music and eating
the pleskovitza i was mingling with the locals but i clearly stood out it's such a small town
only four thousand people when i went to the bathroom a man was leaving he might have had
a little bit too much to drink that night he said where are you from he immediately recognized me as
an outsider i guess when you spend enough time in cirque neitze you get to know everyone in the town
he had a cleveland indian shirt on and i recognize that that's the slovenian connection to america
the highest population of slovenians in america is in cleveland so it's a nice little link there
we had a nice chat and everyone was very friendly and welcoming now this is a little
sign off on the vlog hope you enjoyed watching the goldball and big bands here in cirque niza
and getting a taste of small town life and culture as i adjust to life here in slovenia
to many more concerts music and trying new balkan foods we'll see you next time
