"Bozhychi" folk ensemble. Sho z Kyjeva ta j do Rusalyma. Kolyada songs. (From Kyiv to Jerusalem)

You might have met this group in our collection earlier – when the ensemble released its first album (the producer of which was Oleh Skrypka). Furthermore, "Bozhychy" quite often participate in folk festivals, while Kievers, if I am not mistaken, could even see them as participants of a theatrical performance. Thus, we may state that the ensemble is living and advance ahead. And it is pleasant, because both from the very beginning and now "Bozhychy" can skilfully create a very warm and cosy atmosphere. As a matter of fact, you feel as if your old friends have come for a moment to welcome you – and stayed for some light hours. You see these people not so often, but when you do see them, you really feel glad – because with them even silence seems to be good. Still, you don’t know that for sure – as they don’t keep silent, they sing. They sing well. They sing honestly.
