Bubuqe Rada in songs!
Collage of songs from the singer’s repertoire:
PROFILE! Burbuqe Rada, she has been involved in music since she was little, her parents always encouraged her immediately after spotting her talent. This is how she becomes an active part of different school choirs.
Her “born” voice for the song has helped Rada on the way to the microphone. She`s active with various children’s concerts, until it is time for high school where Rada study music.
It was a period when there were many activities. Burbuqe Rada is engaged in this way with the Auto tractor Ensemble, the Polygraphic Estrada where she also worked in the special bookstore, thus continuing with the May Concerts, Festivals in TVSH, Music Surveys.
The participation in the year-end festivals in TVSH was in 1981, when the well-known composer Tish Daia punctuated it with a song of his entitled “Te ngreme dolline”.
For Burbuqe it was an unbelievable dream with the change except everything was true. She dedicates her achievements as a singer to the composer from Shkodra, Tish Daia saying: “if he hadn’t invited me, I wouldn’t be known as a singer”.
She used to sing the song with which she represented at the Festival every year-end in the big party that was organized at the turn of the year, until the 90ties.
For 6-7 years, she sang songs from the composer Tish Daia, but also for Agron Xhunga, Gjergj Leka, Aleksander Lalo, Agim Krajka.
In her beginnings, even though she was talented, she was shy, so much so that she had to “fight” with herself to overcome her emotions.
The most golden period for her as a singer was from 1981 to 1990, where she received several second prizes at the Fest. in TVSH and first prizes in the May Concerts.
In addition to success, Burbuqe Rada has also had difficulties, as in the case of the concerts in May, where they accused her “shfaqje te huaja” , even though the audience forced her to return to the microphone several times.
It would only take Vera Grabocke’s intervention in the Party Committee (who had planned to remove her), for her to continue her activities as a singer.
Well, the same thing happens at the Festival, when the attitudes and singing style are criticized like “shfaqje te huaja” .
This time she needed the intervention of the great composer Tish Daija to pass “without getting wet”.
More than 20 years have passed since she has been missing from the stage and the microphone. Currently, she has a completely different profession than singing. Rada works at the Albanian Post Office and performs the song only on occasions of holidays.
