Ciocârlia is a well-known Romanian folk tune that was first made popular by violinist Angheluş Dinicu in the 19th century. Its popularity spread further afterwards, thanks to Angheluş's grandson, Grigoraş Dinicu, and to violinist/composer George Enescu.
Enescu also quoted Ciocârlia in his popular composition, the Romanian Rhapsody No.1 for orchestra.
