Congratulations – our collection of recordings by modern opera singers of Ukraine has been replenished with one more glorified name. Mykola Shopsha has a bass of a great beauty and force, it has been for almost thirty years now recognized by connoisseurs and critics all over the world. Eloquence, expressiveness, the great masterful performance make it possible for him to include into his repertoire over 30 opera roles, more than 500 chamber pieces – and to perform them inimitably. Moreover. A number of modern Ukrainian composers – as, for example, Yevhen Stankovych – write some oeuvres especially for him, taking into account the force and range of this voice. A serious proof of respect, isn’t it? Thus, there is no sense to continue speaking; it is necessary to listen, as the main thing is already clear. You will hear an opera bass that is very similar to a large powerful river – the force of the current thrills you so much that you do not notice the depth at once. But, when you do notice the depth, you forget about all the rest. It is even more interesting to observe it due to that you hear here not opera arias but chamber pieces, and almost half of them are folk songs (and even some Russian romances). Thus, you can see that mastery reveals brightly here.

Audio cassette/ ..As he himself used to say, the variety art presented Ukrainian folk songs too one-sidedly – only facetious and everyday songs were performed. Now you will feel how the interweaving of his wonderful voice and the Kapella performance raise a Ukrainian song high up to the skies revealing people’s soul..

..the entire album is recorded based on poems by Taras Shevchenko. It is unlikely that for many his poetry conjures purely lyrical images – but the music leaves you no chance. Even dramatic, heavy lines are revealed in a different light here, because the music permeates them with – peace.

The disk "To the Great Kobzar" is small in size but a valuable present for all the fans on the occasion of Taras Shevchenko's 200th anniversary. This is a special and wonderful recording.

This disc was created on the eve of Mykola Lysenko's anniversary – and, perhaps, it should be emphasized that it is work by young performers. It's nice – both because they have managed to record and release this program, and because they chose him – Lysenko. Let us just keep it in mind that one can talk about it, or one can – do it. And it is done – well.

It's nice that now within the framework of the "Golden Collection" it is possible to hear at least a small portion of truly exciting opera recordings. And, as is often the case with collections of this series, the disc contains real rarities: the oldest recording presented here was made back in 1940!

Мой отец впервые услышал Шопшу в каком-то телевизионном концерте и был просто потрясен его голосом, попросил меня разыскать альбом с его песнями. UMKA оперативно выполнила заказ, и уже через пару дней мой папа смог наслаждаться прекрасным сильным басом этого исполнителя. Спасибо!

This cd of bass singer Mykola Shopsha is wonderful for anyone who loves to listen to the bass voice as much as I do. It is not heavy but melodic with much expression and perfection. Mykola's is not the deepest bass voice I have heard, but is very impressive in it's delivery of beautiful Ukrainian music. A true delight to the ear, even though I do not understand the language. A delectable range of music which is a delight.

Начал он за здравие: "Наливаймо, браття!" (так и видишь его произносящим тост в компании запорожцев), а кончил за упокой - потерял любовь и остался в одиночестве среди мрачных российских равнин. Некоторые вещи, представленные здесь, мне знакомы в другом исполнении, но я никому не могу отдать предпочтение перед паном Миколой. Не говорю о его приятнейшем голосе и вокальной технике - это величины недосягаемые. Но для меня загадочно следующее: что и как именно он делает, что веришь каждому спетому им слову?? Я ни минуты не сомневаюсь, что действительно отдаст душу за карие очи (и так изысканно у него это выглядит!). А "Бандуристе, орле сизий" - как будто живой Шевченко грустит вдали от родины. И так все записи: каждая оригинальна, красива и производит большое впечатление. Но на что певец намекает, поместив последним романс "Ямщик, не гони лошадей"???
