The region of Shkodra is considered to be the cultural centre for Albanian music. You can find unique folk and traditional music as well as Albanian popular music. The use of the violin and clarinet is common in the music of the region but more recently the accordion and guitar are used. Musicians from the area include Bik Ndoja, Luçija Miloti, Xhevdet Hafizi, and Bujar Qamili.

Albanian music is a big part of life for Albanians. Even with Albanians living outside of Albania, listening to the latest Albanian music and groups is common place. If you are interested in listening to Albanian music, it can be downloaded from the internet.
