Biography

It's very hard to find biographical information on Sarievski in English. If anyone can provide me with some Macedonian sources, I'd be happy to translate them. We also need to find a suitable image. --AimLook (talk) 16:54, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I found an article about his death (and by extension, his life) here [1]. I will try translate some now.

The picture there isn't the best... the one from the MK Wiki is pretty good: [2]. Could you translate the license?

Most things on the net are song lyrics or blogs with tangential mentions though, its kind of annoying :). Balkan Fever 02:27, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I saw that news article too, that's how I managed to find the date of his passing. The image was taken from the "Dnevnik" newspaper and the license of the image on the Macedonian article is the "any kind of poster" license on this Wikipedia. --AimLook (talk) 16:13, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Some translated info from the aforementioned source.

He sang (possibly wrote) 380 songs over six decades.
Born in Galičnik, he finished secondary education(?) in Skopje where he learned to play accordion. In 1946, on (the) Macedonian radio, he recorded "A bre nevesto oko kalešo" which started his career.
First tour of Tanec was from Niš to Split in 1950
Became the largest ambassador for Authentic Macedonian culture.
"Од Галичник до легенда - Александар Сариевски" biography by Kiril Todevski published before his death
Many of his songs often confused by younger generations as folk songs.
Branko Crvenkovski, then prime minister, referred to him as a bard.

That's pretty much the most important parts of the text. Balkan Fever 02:49, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have already added a few of those details (which I took from that article): that he was born in Galičnik, that his music career began in 1946, that he was one of the founders of Tanec, and I also used Todevski's biography of Sarievski as a source in the Zajdi, zajdi, jasno sonce article.

I'll be a little more specific and say that his music career began with his appearance on Macedonian radio, I'll try an work in the bit about the younger generation believing his songs to be traditional folk songs, and I'll try and include the quote from Crvenkovski where he refers to Sarievski as a bard. Apart from that, the A1 article essentially talks about Sarievski's life in a hagiographic way. --AimLook (talk) 16:27, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
