After forced sedentarism of nomadic Moldavian Roma Groups implemented by the Soviet authorities at mid-twentieth century and massive industrialization of the Soviet economy – more traditional occupations of the Roma have disappeared. One of these traditional Romany crafts which are missing today is "Lautari" (Roma musicians). Currently the traditional Roma group of “Lautari” live in the Center part of the Republic of Moldova, especially in Chisinau city. Another little part of community of Roma musicians are settled in Northern Moldova, in Riscani and Edinet districts. At the present, the main occupation of this Roma ethnographic group is the participation at entertainment events: Roma/Gypsy music, dances and songs.
