Biography

We often speak of gypsy musicians as virtuous of imitation: great ear, great technique, stop. From the old Gypsy music culture, characterized of saxophones and clarinets, mixed  with Rom people creativity born the Balkan brass band.

In the Balkan region, the bands formed on the model of gypsy brass band are mostly Gypsy band. From the west Seria to the Macedonia, Gypsy people change with a big creativity the role of traditional band. These bands were created during 19th century.

In Kocani, a new city of Repubblica of Macedonia,  gypsy music is called Romska Orientala Musika. In Macedonia, the majority part of gypsy people are Muslims and the musicians play for their people and for the Gadjes, people who are not gypsy.  They are great to mix different music styles, maintaining the main sounds and melodies of oboe musicians.

The slow and improvised introductions are called with the turkish term 'tadzim' or in Macedonian 'trapeza'. Romantic sounds are indicated in various ways: 'gazel' in Turkish, 'sevdak' or 'sevdalinka' in Macedonia and Serbian. Styles are constantly mixed and they could be Turska (Turkish), romski (Gypsies), bylgarska (Bulgarian), rumunski (Romanian) or srpsko (Serbs). Most of the rhythms used in the instrumental pieces are based on traditional dance called 'cocek' if are famale dances, or 'oro' if are circle group dances. Also in this case, sounds come from ancient and modern sources of inspiration up to the rumba and east salsa dance.

Kočani Orkestar plays an interpretation of original tradition tracks, but the leader Naat Veliov gives a modern touch with his great talent. The band did important projects during its career: composed a belgian documentary soundtrack; took part in 'Antigona' di B. Brecht; has arranged and performed three tracks for Vinicio Capossela in 'Live in Volvo' album. Recently the group has collaborated with Paolo Rossi, Roy Paci, Modena City Ramblers and Luca Bassanese, all they are famous italian singers. 

At the end of 2007 Naat Veliov and the band recived title of 'Rapresentative of Macedonian culture in the world' from Government of Macedonia. From 29th of October to 2nd of November 2008 Kočani Orkestar was invited from Macedonia embassy in America for few concerts and meeting in the World Cultural Centre and in New Orleans.
