Isihia

Исихия / Isihia，典出十四世紀(jì)保加利亞第二王國(guó)時(shí)期興起的東正教靜修派(Исихаст)。21世紀(jì)伊始，保加利亞樂(lè)隊(duì)Isihia偕同Lot Lorien以及馬其頓樂(lè)隊(duì)Anastasia，掀起了保加利亞年輕一代對(duì)巴爾干本地音樂(lè)的懷古風(fēng)潮。這個(gè)八人編制的樂(lè)隊(duì)在配器上堅(jiān)守全盤(pán)本土化的策略，巴爾干風(fēng)笛 (bagpipes)、保加利亞三弦琴 (gadulka)、大鼓 (tapan)、牧笛 (kaval) 是成局的基本配備。樂(lè)曲常以ambient長(zhǎng)音鋪底，旋律上以保加利亞?wèn)|正教圣樂(lè)為主，并佐以稍經(jīng)打磨的粗礪保加利亞民樂(lè)唱腔，試圖探尋東正教靜修派的純凈保加利亞精神。
 
Isihia (Bulgarian: Исихия, &hesychia&) are a Bulgarian music band founded in 2000, the style of which unites elements of Bulgarian folklore and Hesychast Christian chant of the 14th century to create an atmosphere of Balkan spiritual mysticism. Many of the group's songs cover topics of the medieval history of Bulgaria, mostly the period of the Ottoman invasion of the Balkans and the attempts on its repulsion and the early Ottoman rule of Bulgaria, i.e. the 14th-15th century, but also other moments of hardship such as the tragic Battle of Klyuch of 1014.
