The Doina is a Southeastern European musical tune style, having its roots in the music of Romanian (Vlach) shepherds.
It can be found in Romanian music, as well as in the Klezmer music and the Roma/Gypsy music. The Doina's main characteristic is its beatless, often improvised slow melody that generally can't be danced to.
The very origin of the word "doina" is unknown and it is spread throughout Romania and Moldova.
