Strangely enough, until now, not that many discs have been released with songs of UPA (Ukrainian Insurgent Army). Even if we consider it more broadly – with insurgents' songs. Kost' Erofeev, Rutenia, Volodymyr Verminsky, collections by the studio theater "Ne Zhurys!", Kraina Mriy and the "Golden Collection" series – not an exhaustive but almost complete list, if we speak about modern arrangements. So, "Lvivski Muzyky" in due time made their contribution into that good cause. "Long Live Free Ukraine!" is, presumably, one of the most lyrical albums on this topic. And it is no surprise – in fact, this ensemble is, in general, characterized by a soft, transparent attitude to the song. And due to such interpretation, you think not so mush about the heavy military paths, but about how ordinary people paced along those paths. People who longed for freedom and comfort as much as anyone does – with the only difference that they were not afraid to truly defend their right to freedom...
For technical reasons not depending on us, the quality of the recording is not always irreproachable – but, considering the theme of the album, which is interesting for lots of our visitors, we still decided to represent this CD in our shop.
