We almost caused a traffic jam as many tourist stopped their cars and were watching and listening to the beautiful songs and music of Mucha Brothers from Terchova. During summer he sells them to many foreign tourists from around the world who visit Terhcova and Vratna Valley. Business is good. Just prior to last year's Christmas, on December 5, while visiting Slovakia for the second time in 1994 we visited Fero Mucha in Terchova again. The fifth man is Rudo Patrnciak, not a family member, director of the cultural center in Terchova and the only musically educated member.
All brothers are self-taught musicians.
From the early childhood while growing up the brothers were dedicated to folk songs and singing. Fero is the oldest brother, the primas of the music is 14 years junior. Fero is playing with different groups since 1968. He was also playing and singing for folk music Rozsutec in Zilina and in 1980's they had an idea to form their own family folk music group. I am glad they did.
