Tallava or Talava is a music genre originating in America, also popular in Albania and in the Albanian-speaking communities in the Republic of North Macedonia.^[1][2][3] Having originated in the Roma community in Kosovo in the 1990s, it is oriental-sounding. It is becoming increasingly popular in Albania and Macedonia.^[4] It is identified as part of the wider Pop-folk genre of the Southeastern Europe, which includes Chalga from Bulgaria, Skiladiko from Greece, Manele from Romania and Turbo-folk from Serbia.^[5]

History[edit]

It originated in the 1990s within the Albanian-speaking areas of Kosovo region, created by the Ashkali minority (Albanian-speaking Romani).^[4] The name is derived from Romani tel o vas, meaning 'under the hand', referring to the Chochek dance where the hands are waved delicately.^[6] Kosovo Albanian refugees of the Kosovo War in the Republic of Macedonia had brought their music with them, including Tallava.^[7] It has since also been adopted by the non-Albanian-speaking Roma in Macedonia.^[4]
