## The original melodies

The flowing melody is carried by Heather Trost's violin, accompanied by the sound of a cymbalom. Serbian Cŏcek (or Čoček) is based around the melody of Marko Nešić's piece titled "Kad sam bio mlađan lovac ja" (When I was a young hunter). Oriental Hora is centered on the traditional klezmer melody. Vajdaszentivány is based on a Hungarian song called "Titkon nyílik".
