Kitka with Tutarchela - K’irialesa

In October 2010, we toured Georgia and Armenia. While in Tbilisi, we met with the women’s choir Tutarchela, directed by Tamar Buadze. They taught us this winter holiday song from Samegrelo, Georgia, sung in the Megrelian language. Translation: “May God grant you many New Year’s blessings. May your family be filled with bounty, and peaceful homecomings for loved ones who are far away. “
