Solomia Chubay. POETY. /polygraphy in English, premium, CD+book/.
POETY is a strong and sound, but at the same time – multi-layered project by Solomiya Chubay. It is dedicated to the 70th anniversary of her father – and it is a tribute to our other iconic poets, those now alive and those in other world. Therefore, not only Chubays' lyrics and voices are heard here: Ukrainka, Tychyna, Vinhranovsky, Stus, Bilotserkivets, Izdryk, Savka, Kiyanovska, Zhadan, Andrukhovych. On the one hand, it's rock music as it is – and that's why Jalapita plays. On the other, the symphony sound by the Rockoko band and the INSO-Lviv orchestra, and the jazz-rock Ihor Hnydyn on drums add a completely different dimension to the sound and the aesthetics in general. In fact, it is almost a rock opera: the songs follow each other so harmoniously that one even aspires to discover a transversal plot in the lyrics as well. And, perhaps, it is worth trying: it will be your individual line of meaning. Besides, this is the family voice of the Chubays – just compare the intonations of Solomiya, Taras, and Hryhoriy. But at the same time, it is looking for and germination of one's own voice. In the end, just as it was bequeathed by the father.. And yet – this is a testimony to poetry, which happened not only due to, but also despite of. And that knows how to be different – harsh, tender, transparent, deep, life-giving. Alive. For us – if we are alive. If we are able to listen and hear.

...the album again suggests the idea that the war for independence of Ukraine that started dozens of years ago – lasts till now. And now even more than ever before it is opposition of identities – because external, political and geographic independence is worth nothing unless it is founded on internal freedom. To quote the song – "...to be oneself and to be proud".

The album was first released in 2000 – and it was perhaps the first collection of insurgents' songs in modern arrangements in Ukraine. And it still, in my opinion, remains the best one.
