🌍

Contexto cultural

Croatians often listen to 'zabavna glazba' (pop-folk) during celebrations. It is common to sing along loudly, and 'slušati' becomes a collective experience. Klapa music is a traditional form of a cappella singing. People will stop and 'slušati' klapa in stone squares (pjacas) for hours. Tamburica is the soul of eastern Croatia. Listening to the fast-paced strings is often accompanied by traditional dancing (kolo). The alternative scene in Zagreb is huge. 'Slušati mjuzu' often refers to going to clubs like Močvara or Tvornica Kulture.
