REVIEWS


"...The sound addition of Kneja is the CD with traditional folk songs, which once again shows
the outstanding gift of Lidija Bajuk-Pecotic. We are talking of the truly fascinating and unique
literary-musical-artistic-Slavenic-Croatian-Medjimurje’s guide...”

(B. Nadj, Kiga, KRUG, "Medjimurske novine")


"...The publisher of Kneja put his good will and with cooperation with the record company
enabled the reader to get a mini CD together with the book. Six musical interpretations of the songs
that are part of the fairy tales in the book. All the songs have a special touch of the author
who is one of the most meritorious names among those who started the ethno section
in the domestic pop scene...”
