Music genre
Čalgija or Chalgiya (Bulgarian language: Чалгия) is a Bulgarian music genre, which also is a subgenre of the old urban traditional folk music (starogradska muzika) of Bulgaria.[1][2][3]
Čalgija is performed by ensembles called Čalgii (Чалгии) with instruments such as a dajre (tambourine) and tarabuka (hourglass drum) providing percussion for ut (lute), kanun (zither), clarinet and violin.[4]
Čalgija should not be confused with Chalga (a contemporary pop-folk dance music of Bulgaria).[5]
