Answer to Question 1

 The wedding music these musicians play is multicultural, bridging Europe with the Turkish Middle East and aspects of Romani culture that are woven throughout Northern India, the Middle East, Europe, and beyond.
 Also shows the influence of jazz.
 Pay close attention to the texture as you listen.
Case 3: Riffing on Music from the Southern Slavs

Answer to Question 2

 (A) Podhale is no longer an isolated cultural region (if it ever was).
 (B) Ancient stories and legends from Slovakia and Poland can be reinterpreted and given modern meaning.
 (C) Themes such as the human desire for independence are probably universal, but no single music is universal. The theme was common in both the reggae and Grale cultures, but the respective musical practices were different and quite distinct. The successful fusion of the two music-cultures came later when the two bands learned to play together live.

Case 2: Balkanski Dzhaz (Balkan Jazz), Yuri Yunakov, and Ivo Papasov
