PJEV CROATIA A CAPPELLA, TRADITIONAL, BALKAN POLYPHONY PJEV is a female a cappella quintet from Zagreb which cherishes traditional vocal music from Serbia, Croatia and Bosnia & Herzegovina. It gathers singers from these countries and their common ground is a shared tradition transmitted by a common language. In times when mainstream rhetoric serves to divide these nations and cultures, their songs pay tribute to the underlying unity. “Medna roso” LP was released in 2023 as a collaboration with Kit Downes and Hayden Chisholm by Redhook records. 52
