...their life." All 13 members of Taraf de Haïdouks grew up in the same small Romanian village, and all come from musician families where grandfather, father and son were raised to play. Saban Bajramovic, 66, a gypsy music legend in Serbia who once played for Josip Broz Tito and India's Jawaharlal Nehru, was imprisoned for desertion from the military and made that experience the inspiration for his life's work.
