AFA "Rugova" – Peja

17 years without Ramë Kapllan Nikçi

The seventeenth anniversary of the death of the founder, leader and choreographer of the "Rugova" Indigenous Folk Ensemble in Peja

RAMË ( KAPLLAN ) NIKÇI

( 1928 – 2006)

The jatagani, the dance, the mountain song, the characteristic dress were always for him, symbols of the nation.

Tireless for 60 years in their presentation, around the world, showing the persistence of the people of Rugova. They were born from the rock and the rock was made to protect their land, the land of their grandparents and great-grandparents.

Biro, love Rugova, that's what Rama commanded us, love your beloved hearth; the snow-capped mountains, the long-suffering people, the bravery of legendary men, their talk, pride, generosity and the prosperous table laid out for friends.

Forever in our memory, his legacy for the cultivation, prosperity of the original folklore and its transmission from generation to generation.

Members of the "Rugova" Autochthonous Folk Ensemble
