The But family became the basis of the "Being" ensemble as long ago as in 2000 – and, above all, Oleg But. Both the family and the ensemble have been slowly growing since then. The growth relates both to the number and quality – however, participants of the ensemble from the very beginning require serious professionalism from themselves. And – adhere to the selected course, they even create with their own hands some instruments. Behind the back of these musicians, there are a lot of folklore expeditions through villages of Ukraine – and access to a great volume of unique material. "Being" has the objective of recreating, as well as the most exact restoration possible of sounding of traditional rural ensembles. As a result – the ensemble is an active promoter of Ukrainian culture, it takes part in numerous festivals, festive amusements, "vechornytsi". Moreover – it is the co-organizer of the "Traditional Dance School". Speaking about the album "Life Being", it can be called retrospective – it represents rural music from a lot of corners of Ukraine at once, dances and songs from Transcarpathia and Poltava Region. Considering that each of the localities represented here had a special instrumental composition of ensembles – the work was, probably, laborious. But the result is successful – varied, bright, to say nothing about its being educational.
