For 27 years, the folk song group “Lot Kurbeti” has kept alive the tradition of isopolyphonic singing in Greece. Its members, immigrants who have been living in the Greek state for years, have already become part of the activities and events of the Albanian community.<\/p>\n

Popular artists are excited that the Labe song attracts everyone, including the Greeks, while they want polyphony to be sung by young people as well.<\/p>\n

“It is a pleasure that this year we are at the Folklore Festival of Gjirokast\u00ebr. Also with a diverse activity in Greece, in different districts and prefectures, activities organized by the Albanian community in Greece and not only, in the National Holidays organized by the Embassy of Albania every year in Athens and mainly with the Albanian community” – said Shezo Bushi, popular singer.<\/p>\n

“We also help the young generations, we want to teach them these songs so that they can keep the Labe song” – said popular singer Fatjon Grabova.<\/p>\n

“Wherever we always sing our group and the song Labe above all, all the people become part of this song” – he further added.<\/p>\n

“Yes, the Greeks too, many Greeks. Even here, where we are today, we were met by some Greeks who know us and follow us, they met us here and came specifically to listen to us, we have many people”.<\/p>\n

Ensembles and popular groups from the Diaspora have joined the stage of the Folklore Festival, which have presented the best values \u200b\u200bof folk and tradition.<\/p>\n
