Masterpieces of Choral Singing. Conducted by Pavlo Muravsky. Golden Collection.
The whole collection and all compositions presented in it are connected with one person - the matter concerns Pavlo Muravskyi. By the way, even today, at his age of 90, he is not looking for calmness; on the contrary, he is working hard and selflessly. At that, not even hundreds, but thousands of professional musicians-choirmasters, singers and cultural workers are proud to call themselves his pupils. It happened that exactly this person has been in charge of the leading and the most appreciable in the whole state choir within the last half a century or so. And, as they say, it is exactly under the direction of this person that such choirs as "Trembita" and "Dumka", as well as the choirs of the Ukrainian radio and Kyiv conservatoire have become the best ones. At that, the mastery performance of these choirs can be compared with academic examples of the world choir music – in particular, thanks exactly to Muravskyi. So, I think that every true admirer of choral singing will perceive this disc with respect – and it will be right of him.

Chorus named G. Veryovka. Verbovaja doshchechka. /digi-pack/. (Willow Plank)

Whatever you might say, the National Choir named after G.Veryovka is a real, bright, original legend. Living.

Vydubychi Church Chorus. Golden Melodies. Ukrainian folk songs.


...these songs at this disc sound somehow strictly, greatly, spiritually in that sense which is meant in connection with the church singing. Natural melodiousness of both Ukrainian language and, as they say, people’s soul is quite evident for everybody who listens to Ukrainian song...
Domestic price: 278.60UAH, International price: $19.90USD

Halych Chamber Choir "Yevshan". Fol'klorna skrynja.


Here usual Ukrainian songs sound as spiritual ones, though they seem to have nothing to do with the church. So then, here a song as it is acquires a new quality and a new content – to be exact, an old and almost forgotten content.
