Ostap Shutko, Leo Witoszynskyj. Cantabile e ritmico.
Each of them is a real star at his place. Leo Witoszynskyj is one of the best classic guitarists of Austria. Ostap Shutko is one of the best classic violinists of Ukraine. However, these statements are true both for their countries and for the world of classic music in general – we have already discussed this before. Thus, to your attention is the second joint release by these musicians. Unlike the first disc, it is not a concerto but studio recording. Thus, there is no atmosphere created by a concert hall filled with audience – but instead there is the sounding that can be achieved only under conditions of concentrated studio work. And consequently – more subtleties, nuances of the performance technique, more attention to details. And, accordingly, fewer external moments. In the end, deep, beautiful music sounds here, therefore the possibility to concentrate exactly on music – does not seem superfluous at all. Although the performance mastery is such that, presumably, no extra noise would be able to really distract the listener from immersion into the melodious waves. This is the case when, even knowing the piece well, you all the same discover it anew – and isn't it one of main signs of musicians' level? Well, and in addition – as well as the last time –you will find in the booklet brief but substantial notes by Leo Witoszynskyj about the works performed here.

Vitaliy Sobolev, Yevhenia Nesterenko. Mykola Lysenko: Works. /digi-pack/.


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.

Herman Safonov, Helena Strogan. Berezovsky, Schubert, Ischenko.


"The duo of H. Safonov and H. Strogan, – according to composer Stankovych, – is the highly-professional ensemble of musicians, who differ due to their rich culture, nice understanding of style and form, delicate test, capability of expression of wide imagination and emotional spectrum: from the finest lyricism to wild wide-open emotion..."

Herman Safonov, Helena Strogan. Grieg, Brahms, Galperin.


This is the feeling as if you look at a picture painted in cool tones – and suddenly you understand that it is warm, very saturated emotionally. Then the colors start creating another pattern... Actually, that is why it seems to us that this disc can become a source of significant pleasure for experienced connoisseurs as well.

Natalia Tolmachova, Olga Shutko. Romantic Cello. /digi-pack/


The violoncello here lives a saturated live, breathes full breast, flies freely, whispers gently – a great number of colors and emotions are incarnated skillfully, exactly, elegantly. Yes – maybe, it is elegance that may be called one of main features of the album.

State chamber ensemble "Kyiv Soloists", Myroslava Kotorovych. Sotvorinnya. /digi-pack/. (Creation)


...music in their performance sounds bright, enchanting – and intimate. They play as though for the whole world – but also as if only for you and only now. However, the listener must also conscientiously perform his/her attentive, concentrated and relaxed work – otherwise, honest exchange will not be possible. Not to speak – to listen.
