Auleja is a small but beautiful village in Latvia’s eastern region of Latgale where a rich heritage of folklore has been preserved. It is precisely the traditional vocal music of this area, characterised by smooth, graceful melodies and a specific style of multipart singing, that has earned particular recognition. After a careful study of the recordings of these singers, Tautumeitas (‘folk maidens’) group has adopted the traditional singing style of Auleja. The group’s understanding of this style has also been formed by the conclusions drawn by Tautumeitas initiator Asnate Rancāne during the preparation of her bachelor work “Aulejas laika bolsu stilistika” (Stylistics of Seasonal Bolsi from Auleja). This knowledge is reflected on the album Songs from Auleja.
