Seemingly, the collection with such title should contain a classical set of heroic and patriotic songs and marches. Seemingly, it should be straight as an arrow and simple as one sign. But we are lucky. This collection is like a river, which sometimes is quick and sometimes is slow, or sometimes is severe and sometimes is tender. It absorbed rain, dust, clean brooks, blood and groundwater. Still, it is possible to explain everything more clearly – just have a look at a list of performers. I. Kozlovskyi, K. Ohnevoy, "Dumka" choir, "Khreshchatyi Yar" and "Zoloti Klyuchi" ensembles, State Honour Bandurist Choir of Ukraine and others. The names speak by themselves. Moreover, don’t doubt – there are real rarities among these recordings. But the matter doesn’t concern rarities; it concerns the quality of performance, the way everything is performed, played and, finally, collected. It is done very well. It is worth listening.

The discs of this mini-series stand out due to their design – you can easily differ them against the general background. As usual, here you will find recordings from the funds of the National Radio Company – and, as usual, a part of these records is rarity. On the other hand – true classics of the "golden times" of the Ukrainian variety art are represented here.

Compilers of the "Golden Collection" do an extraordinarily important thing – they remind partially forgotten names, illuminate creation by famous people from some new sides. Due to such releases, it becomes obvious that riches of Ukrainian music are – practically inexhaustible. Thank you.

With a plangent song the heart clears up. After that, it becomes empty, quiet and – light... It seems that the new collection from the "Golden Collection" series sets as the objective exactly this sort of impact on the listener – at all events, we believe that it is quite able to lead through sadness to calm and joy.

If you look from one side – well, what can be positive about drinking? Both time, and money disappear to nowhere – and then, suddenly, the whole life might disappear somewhere... And from the other side – you should really know nothing about drinking to make your life worse.

No music instrument is able to surpass the force of expressiveness of the human voice – or almost unable. At least, it is with voice that they compare sounding of an instrument – when it sounds so beautiful and live that it seems to be a miracle...

In the funds of the National Radio Company of Ukraine, they have found quite a bit of merry, humorous songs. Ukrainians have always been able and are able now to make fun of themselves, they are not afraid of laughter. And it means that they have strong roots, deep ones. There is something to be proud of and something to dig out. It is important.

...children's singing always stands a bit aloof from all music forms. It is a sort of unchangeable coin – which in all "adult" styles is used very carefully, so that it did not lose its innocence.

...everything is not only real, but also very skilfully performed. Since the title says everything by itself, then it is quite understandable that the songs chosen for this collection are far from being sad – one may have a long party with them as they keep up high spirits very well...

Ukrainian folk songs in general are phenomena, which are able to attract attention to themselves. Irrespective of the fact whether it is an authentic performance, or whether it is a professional one, or whether it is a modern adaptation. Because the Ukrainian language, you know, happenes to be melodious and euphonious. One can particularly feel that in Ukrainian songs.

...there is one more reason why people recollect these songs as they were performed exactly by groups of those days. You see, it is not the first attempt to perform folk songs with the help of modern instruments and devices and to interpret their music into modern language...

Услышал две совершенно потрясающие думы про Федора безродного и на смерть казака-бандуриста. Про думы рашньше знал, але николы не чув. Сам я кубанский казак и знаю цену хорошим казачим песням, но эти думы, маю вам доложить, уникальны. Текст не весь понимаю, хочь мову добре знаю (видимо это "староукраиснкий" язык).
Може хто пидскаже, де знайты та, звычайно, послухаты инши козацки думы.

Юліано, це просто.
Всі українські народні пісні і так доступні для кожного бажаючого, чи не так? Нікому не потрібен дозвіл, аби їх знати - і навіть аби співати)
А ці альбоми є платними, бо тим, хто співає, тим, хто утримує звукотвірні, тим, хто безпосередньо записує і зводить записи, а також тим, хто ці альбоми вигадує, втілює, видає, і т.д. - всім цим людям потрібно годувати дітей. І свій кусень хліба вони, повірте, відпрацьовують сповна. Олігархи наживаються, як відомо, на дещо інших речах)

Nice collection of old ballads. Strong vocals and some banduras. Many different groups. I only wish the lyrics were included in Ukrainian (with English translations too).

Дуже потрібною і цінною є збірка козацьких пісень і дум - разом зібрані перлини. Наголосити хочу на оригінальному виконанні
"Чорна рілля ізорана..." - ця дума більш звична у сольному виконанні Василя Жданкіна.

Exceptional! The music is inspiring. Of special note, Kozlovs’kyj, undoubtedly Ukraine’s best tenor, accompanied by a powerful bandurist chorus, probably will never be surpassed in his rendition of ZAVYSTALY KOZACHENKY. Another track OJ NA HORI TAJ ZHENCI ZHNUT is magnificent, great bandurist chorus and soloists. I just loved BAJDA. There’s a slow bandura music only introduction. As the tempo picks up, a symphony orchestra kicks in and the music gets faster and louder. Then suddenly with a brief effective banging of kettle drums, a powerful chorus bursts into an epoch song.

Значне кружало. Слухається на одному подихові, пісні випромінюють якусь первісну могутню силу і старовинний український дух нездоланної волі. Шкода, що вкладинка не містить текстів пісень. Хоча всі вони добре відомі, я так і не спромігся відшукати текст козацької молитви «Ой, Боже, Боже, зглянься на нас» у мережі.

I'm very interested in the Bandurist chorus type of music and highly recommend this disk to anyone who is also interested. Excelllent renditions of true Ukrainian traditional kozak songs. Hopefully there will be more cd's like this one available soon. My daughter plays the bandura (third generation Ukrainian) and is constantly playing this cd.

Super! Grandios wird das ukrainische Kosakentum musikalisch praesentiert. Ein MuЯ fьr alle Anhaenger des ukrainischen Kosakentums. Tolle Saenger, tolle Beherrschung der Instrumente, insbesondere der Bandura.

Сегодня получил на почте диск. Замечательные произведения, именно то что я искал. Абсолютно согласен с Рыжей Кисонькой - в школе не оценил по достоинству. Время наверстывать упущенное.

Supurb album. A good variety of music make this disc a good choice. For those who have a fondness for bandura music, tracks 1, 2 & 17 have terrific bandua accompany.

Очень хорошее качество записи, уникальные голоса. Козаки здесь очень часто лежат убитыми или плачут, да так, что волос дыбом становится. Многое из представленного на диске входит в обязательную школьную программу на Украине, но мне кажется, что в детстве мы не оцениваем по достоинству масштаб этих исторических драм и трагедий. Так что давайте "засядем коло чари" - может быть, немного посветлеет.
