Hrvoje,
The Valentic Brothers (Charles and Frank) in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvainia have been making tamburas for years. I play a 1980 Charles Valentich G brac, my brother plays 2 different Charles Valentic D-bugarias and has Blozen bugaria. I also play 2 Lado Krklec prims...he is originally from the homeland...but now lives in New York City. I play one as an e-prim and one as a d-prim.
I have a question. How many tambura bands (of quality enough to play in the festivals) are there over there now ? Do more bands start up every year...is it becoming more and more popular or stays about the same ?
