GJERGJ KASTRIOTI- SCANDERBEG IN INTERNATIONAL AND NATIONAL ALBANIAN MUSICAL CREATIVITY

Summary/Abstract: We, Albanians, even though among the oldest in the Illyrian Peninsula and beyond, because of different historic events, did not progress under natural conditions and circumstances. We did not have an overall uninterrupted and favorable development of culture, including music creativity, like other European and developed nations. Nonetheless, the truth is that we had a promising initiative, an early development of music that was valuable even though it was not under favorable circumstances. It started in the second half of the IV century and beginning of the V century with the renowned Dardan bishop: Niceta di Remesiana (= Nicetas of Remesiana), who was born, lived and ended his significant activity during 340-415, in Remesiana (near Bela Palanka in Serbia today), an area that belonged to the Illyrian Dardania, bordering with the province of Dacia. There he lived in times of numerous barbaric incursions, accompanied by looting, destruction, burning and murder.
