Ce recueil contient une sélection de mélodies composées par Gjovalin Nonaj, typiques de la musique folklorique des Balkans, adaptées pour la flûte. Cette musique se caractérise par la richesse de ses variations mélodiques, en ce sens, elle se différencie de la plupart des styles de musiques occidentales. Energie, nostalgie, mélodie et sens du rythme... contribuent à former une sonorité complexe, polymorphe. De nombreuses mélodies sont écrites dans des rythmes différents et irréguliers : on trouve beaucoup de mesures à 5/8, 7/8 , 9/8... avec des subdivisions très variées. La flûte s'est imposée devant les autres instruments traditionnels d'Albanie, notamment les instruments à cordes comme le lahuta (1 corde), le çifteli (2 cordes), le sharki (6 cordes). Il en est de même dans les au tres pays des Balkans (le sas en Bosnie, le kolo au Monténégro, l'oro en Macédoine et en Bulgarie). Cette musique peut bien sûr être jouée par d'autres instruments. Il ne faut pas oublier que ces musiques sont essentiellement festives. Comme toutes musiques folkloriques, elles participent à la vie des peuples et aux nombreuses fêtes familiales.
