Olexa Kabanov. Ambrelyre. Polyphonic wheel lyre.

I recommend listening to this disc – to everyone. Because the hurdy-gurdy lyre today remains a unique instrument with a specific sounding – its voice is a wonderful guide to imaginary and internal worlds. In the end, history of the hurdy-gurdy lyre goes back to about a thousand years ago – and it means that in this music there live medieval castles, and wandering musicians, and that clear air that our cities lack so much now... Far not every musician is able to breathe in real life into age-old instruments, to let them sound brightly, deeply – not with glass strasses, but with jewels. Olexa Kabanov, no doubt, is. In his performance traditional melodies sound as if they did not have hundreds of years behind their back – to that extent they are live, close, and warm. The feeling is that both the melodies, and you go beyond the limits of time – and nobody gets older, nothing disappears, while the music sounds... It is nice, by the way, that the few author's compositions only deepen this feeling. Actually, if one did not know where they were – one would not guess, that is how everything fits to each other. And another remarque. The ambrelyre that you hear here is Olexa Kabanov's author polyphonic hurdy-gurdy lyre. Due to certain upgrades, it has become a versatile orchestra of an instrument – it has been enriched indeed. I think that you will deservedly evaluate the depth of its voice, refinement of the shades – and will want to know more...

Marinita. Marinita. /digi-pack/.


Marinita is, in fact, Maryna Zakharova, who was the heart of the very original project Anno Domini. So, Marinita is a certain development to the story, testing herself in a new, even more open format: with the opportunity to collaborate without any special linking to a certain composition. The debut album under the new name...

Yuriy Kovtun. BraviBelli.


...the album at once creates elated, festive mood – but in a surprising way. In the correct way. Because, although about a half of the compositions can hardly be called merry ones – a smile is very expressly felt in them. Somewhere dim, somewhere transparent, somewhere dreamy, somewhere thoughtful – but it is present in each piece, and it warms.

Run. Over the Border.


In the world, certainly, there are quite a lot of people who play Celtic music – and even more say that they play it. But not everyone is able, having taken a correct basis, to correctly invest his or her own breathing into it – so that the harmony really came to life. Rune – you will hear that yourself – taught their music not simply breathing...

The Sokalsky Quartet. Koljady. (Christmas Carols)


You will come across Christmas carols of France, England, Wales, Sweden, Austria, the USA, Spain, Germany here – honestly speaking, the very list inspires respect. Moreover, all the songs are performed in original languages – and this is, you should agree, a piece of work. And it was worth it...

Folk Instrumental Orchestra of the International Culture & Art Centre Kyiv. Melodies Known Worldwide.


This is a masterly and harmonious performance of a great orchestra consisting of real masters, which is rated highly not only in Ukraine, but far beyond its bounds.

World known dances.


The name of a disc speaks for itself. Here are hopak, sirtaki, lezginka, hava-nagila. Executed on a synthesiser, these melodies are intended rather not for domestic listening, but for use at lessons of dances, or in the dramatised performances or concerts at school or kindergarten.

Olexa Kabanov. Wind from the Orient.


It seems that every musician who follows the way of self-perfection early or late faces the music culture of the East – and gets penetrated with it. In the end, it is difficult to stay indifferent to this beauty. Thus, the only thing left is to let it in, let it through and – let it go. Evidently, Olexa succeeded in it – you will hear that yourself.
