Stanoje Janković - Po gradini mesečina sija meka (Isidor Bajić)
• Music: Isidor Bajić (1878-1915)
• Lyrics: Milorad Petrović Seljančica (1875-1921)
A haunting rendition of "Po gradini mesečina sija meka" ("По градини месечина сије мека") by Serbian baritone Stanoje Janković, with beautiful musical accompaniment by an unnamed Roma orchestra. This recording was made in Europe, probably in the late 1920's.
"Po gradini" is still quite popular and is one of several songs composed for the play "Rakija" (Ракија) by beloved Serbian composer Isidor Bajić (1878-1915) of Novi Sad. The lyrics were taken from a work by Serbian poet Milorad Petrović Seljančica (1875-1921). ◆
