Eduard Drach. Pro slavu i bahatstvo. (On Fame and Wealth)
Eduard Drach issued his previous album, if we are not mistaken, almost 10 years ago – in 2002. Well, during this time not that many things have changed in the world – at least, if we consider the essence, not external events. So, for a person prone to thinking, material for reflecting on is provided on the daily basis – without failure... Well, as the first recognition was brought to Drach as long ago as in 1989 by the ability to reflect, notice details and draw generalized conclusions embodied in his songs – it is no surprise that over this time quite a lot of new songs have been accumulated (only in this disc – there are more than 20 of them). And here I would have mentioned that Drach is a multi-instrumental performer: he plays the kobza, lyre, bandura, gusli, guitar, piano, violin, mandolin, banjo, etc. But – no. As well as in the previous album, he makes an attempt here – a skilled attempt – to continue and develop the kobza-lyre tradition. Thus, the main instrument in the album is the kobza... Accordingly, the songs' lyrics in their form tend not so much to the bard tradition, but to the kobza one. However, considering their essence, these two traditions can be referred to as sisters. For the case is a certain philosophical and meditative, but also very emotional, way of outlook, isn't it?
Whatever it might be, in the new album by Eduard Drach one can hear not only purely Ukrainian instruments – but also poignant words about everything that happens around us. And, unfortunately, it does not seem that relevance of these observations will soon become obsolete...

Audio cassette/ ..He is a successor of a certain art tradition, a performer with his own face and style. With a nice face and a clear style.

Ihor Bilyi. Ya – ne lyalka. /digi-pack/. (I Am Not a Puppet)


Actually, this is the author's album – Igor Bily is the author of all the lyrics, and he did not organize any band to that end. All the songs are for two guitars. Concise, clear, and simple enough. However, the key emphasis is still on the lyrics – it is worth listening, hearing, and understanding. Attentive songs are always relevant.

Volodymyr Shynkaruk. Shestystrunnyy doshch. Vam, molodym... (Six-String Rain. For you, the young...)


...if the inner world of a person is multidimensional – it is possible to wander in these dimensions infinitely, and about each of them it is possible to tell some story. Volodymyr Shynkaruk seems to have in store an infinite number of such histories – and he knows how to tell them honestly, deeply, interestingly. So that at a certain instant his stories become – your own.
Domestic price: 306.60UAH, International price: $21.90USD

Volodymyr Shynkaruk. Perekoty-nebo. (TumbleSky)


This seems to be that very bardic song, although in the sounding there is now more transparent, delicate sense, which is conveyed not with words, but exactly with music. But at the same time, the word has not become less significant. As it should be when the issue is intelligent, thought over, internally experienced texts, not just rhymed lines of certain meters.

Eduard Drach. Nebo Ukrajiny.


Edward Drach appeals to the Kyivska Rus history either in strict historical or at a poetic foreshortening at least in this album. Actually, that is what he us a poet for. More precisely - the bard.

Serhij Moroz. Jarij, Dushe...


Vasyl Stus is one of those poets who are known to everybody who knows at least something about Ukrainian poetry. That’s why it is not a surprise to anyone that from time to time musicians of quite different styles and trends turn to his literary heritage...
Domestic price: 278.60UAH, International price: $19.90USD

Olexandr Ihnatusha. Bily vovk. /digi-pack/. (White Wolve)


At a certain moment it seems as if you were listening not to a simple musical album, but to a collection of songs from films. From old and kind films about love, striving, laugh and tears, nonsense and serious questions of life.
