Tamara Obrovac, one of Croatia’s most distinctive and original musicians, presents the new album of her Transhistria Ensemble, Misečina bila, released by Cantus – the Croatian Composers’ Society on 18 March 2026.
Faithful to her unique artistic vision, Tamara blends jazz with the musical spirit and dialectal heritage of Istria, creating a distinctive sound world that transcends genre boundaries.
Her expressive voice intertwines with the inspired performances of her long‑time collaborators, forming a musical dialogue marked by spontaneity, strong communication and inventive improvisation.
The album features ten new compositions and an arrangement of a traditional Croatian song from Gradišće (Burgenland Austria).
Recorded live in near-concert conditions, the album captures the natural interplay and musical chemistry that have defined this outstanding ensemble, performing in the same line-up for more than twenty years.
