folklora.lt

Ansis Ataols Berzins, a computer programmer and member of the Riga-based folklore ensemble Maskackas spelmani, last week opened a comprehensive Web site devoted to Latvian folklore, particularly music. folklora.lt also may well be among the first Latvian Web sites to use dynamic fonts to control the appearance of text on the reader's computer monitor. Among nice features on the site is a guide to traditional Latvian instruments and a directory of folklore ensembles, some of which have provided MP3 sound files for downloading.
