What is in a Name?
In Croatian Živjeli ~ Cheers!
Pronounced "ji vo lee". It comes from the root word "to live". In Croatia it is one of the first words you learn - Cheers! I wanted a name that had a connection to my family and something that expressed my passion for music. In this busy stressful life we lead, there needs to be an opportunity to enjoy life, relax and socialize. My paternal family originated from Croatia and France. I have been very blessed to meet many Croatian people and visit Croatia to visit cousins. Croatian people are a lot of fun. They love coffee and it is a real experience sitting for hours sipping coffee. They have a joy in life, even after the most devastating experiences, and spirit for music. Hospitable and passionate they are great entertainers and hosts. Dalmatian music is some of the most beautiful in the world and it is really special to hear it echo in an ancient building along the coast on a sunny day. More Northern traditional Croatian Folk Music is played on stringed instruments ranging in size, from a stand up bass, rhythm guitar, to smaller mandolin type instruments called tamburitza. Played at weddings and festivals there are traditional dances and costume that cannot be described in words. I hope a visit to Zivjeli Musica inspires you, draws out your passion giving you a sense of peace and community. Živjeli Musica ~ to live for music ~Debbie
