Ukrainian Opera Singing. Masterpieces of Ukrainian Music. /digi-pack/

The first collection, as you can see, is focused to opera singing. The choice of exactly this theme as the first one may seem rather strange – but only at the first look. For the thing in question here is masterpieces, thus we have to admit: first truly world-wide glory to Ukrainian singing was brought exactly by opera singers, wasn't it? Do not forget that their repertoire was never limited to classic arias only – all of them performed Ukrainian folk songs as well, and caused no less fascination with them. Or even more...

It is not only interesting, but also pleasant to know that – guess who – Oleh Skrypka himself made a direct contribution into compilation of absolutely all discs of the "Masterpieces of Ukrainian Music" series. Considering that it was his recording house "Kraina Mriy" that has been working over the series – that is, actually, not surprising. But, in any case, it is nice to see that Skrypka has revealed an outstanding awareness of the material. You should also take into account how extensive the palette of themes selected has appeared – and not hackneyed, by the way... We believe that when working over these compilations, he had a lot of interesting discoveries for himself – and we have no doubt that for the future audience of these discs these discoveries may appear no less interesting...
