His recordings have included such diverse instruments as hurdy gurdy, bouzouki, harmonium, spike fiddles, bul bul tarang, the optigan keyboard, xaphoon, and field recordings. Hala Strana’s releases have featured arrangements of traditional music from Hungary, Romania, Croatia, Albania, Ukraine and Bulgaria as well as original music influenced by the music of these areas.

It sounds like I'm sitting on the bank of a river somewhere in the middle of nowhere in either the Cascade Mountains or the Appalachians. Either way, awesome.
