Style
Elitsa Todorova developed a percussions-playing style of her own, combining quick ostinate rhythms on the tarambuka with synchronized playing and singing. The result is a mosaic of unique vocal movements and impeccable musical improvisations. She plays traditional percussion instruments in a most non-traditional way. In her repertoire Elitsa plays instruments like the tarambuka, drums, maracas, claves, old silver coins, shepherd's chimes, horses' bells, a magical thunder-wand, guiro, chimes, but of all musical instruments the best, in her opinion, is the human voice.
