Ukrajins'ki solospivy. Golden Collection. (Ukrainian Solo Singing)

In this particular case the matter concerns classical performance of Ukrainian folk songs and arias from famous Ukrainian operas. I say classical performance because performers are a mostly opera singer, that’s why in the first place the disc has to interest admirers of this genre. On the other hand, the compositions presented here are so famous, that one can start familiarizing oneself with opera singing exactly with this disc – of course, if one lacks time and patience to do that directly in the opera house. Besides, this is the first meeting – or an acquaintance – with bright performers, most of whom cannot be heard alive, but whose skill is worth our attention. Still, strictly speaking, one may regard this disc as a collection of very beautiful lyrical songs – and simply to get pleasure from harmonic and quiet mood, as well as serenity, which these recordings are saturated with. May be, the latter is the most important thing.
