This CD is perhaps one of the most "avant-garde" Ukrainian recordings ever! The music of this unique album projects Ukraine into the 21st century but without rupturing with the past. This experimental music, inspired by electro-acoustic and minimalist tendencies of contemporary music with a transposition of ancient Ukrainian themes such as songs of the Chumacs, Hutsuls or ballads of the Kobzars, is performed in a unique theatrical manner. Interesting, original, cerebral and symbolic, this musical extravaganza reflects an intense preoccupation with the darker aspects of current social and political reality. Something totally different well worth the listening experience.
