Polis'ki muzyky. Ukrainian ethnic music.

There is some general impression of this entire story. A simple impression. Thank God, there still exist people on the earth who in contrast to most of us not only listen to songs. These are the people who sing. These are the people who make recordings.

Three main categories of professional musicians are presented at this disc. Travelling singers – lyre players, and later – concertina players (you can find a more detailed information on lyre players in the album "Polissya lyre player"). Then shepherds – in old times they performed signal and magic music. But in our time they mostly perform dancing and onomatopoetic melodies using self-styled and wind instruments. And, at last, troyisti muzyky, who feel themselves well even in our time. They have blended with the time so well that now even use electric instruments (musical, of course). To tell the truth, such instruments do not sound at this disc, and it is for better. Except for six tracks, simply instrumental music sounds. Simply music sounds, but this music is not simple at all. At least because these melodies are several centuries old.

Anton Jozhik Leyba (Hedgehog)

"Ukrainian Ethnic Music" series came out of many ethnographical expeditions to different region of Ukraine. Compact discs have stylish design. In the colourful booklets you will find information about the places where recordings were made, stories about performers, lyrics of the songs etc. Information is given in Ukrainian and English.

Folklore National Rite Ensemble "Rodoslav". P.1,2. (2CD).


The group is experienced and high-quality, it has been existing since 1991, it tours quite a lot – but the two-disc collection that you now see is the first official album by the ensemble. Well, this is the case when it is better late than never – because these musicians are worth knowing.

Ethnic Culture of Polissya. Traditional Music. (4CDs).


Rivne Polissya still preserves a significant number of archaic features in the material and spiritual culture and is characterized by conservatism and remainders of pre-Christian beliefs, ancient customs, world view and visions of the Ukrainian people. The folklore tradition of this region was formed in difficult historical condition...

Oj ljesom-ljesom. Traditional Music of Rivne Polissja. (Oj, through the Forest)


On the whole, the album, I think, can create quite an integral feeling about the culture of Polischuks – the more so that here, in addition to ceremonial and domestic songs, quite a bit of humorous refrains can be found. And it means that the impression will not be one-sided.

Na nashij julojci. Ukrainian ethnic music.


You can easily imagine wrinkles around eyes, work-weary hands and skin darkened of the sun. Simple, warm and dry music of singing – like wrinkles or work-weary hands. It is difficult to explain or to describe these voices, but for me they seem to shine. So quietly.

Vjenochok rut'vjanen'kyj. Ukrainian ethnic music.


Discs reflect a deep ritual layer of folk art and invite you to travel with them. To travel not only through the villages of Beresteyshchina, but also to travel by seasons of a year – from Christmas and New Year to autumn weddings.

V hetoj hati. Ukrainian ethnic music.


At this disc the songs from Beresteishchina are collected. Now it is the territory of Belarus, but the songs and melodies are ours. Our own. From these parts. Real.
Domestic price: 67.14UAH, International price: $14.92USD

Postop'janka z Podljashsha. Ukrainian ethnic music.


Pidlyashshya is a south-western region of Ukraine situated at the border, so naturally its culture is influenced by close neighbours – Belarus and Poland. In those parts along with usual songs you may also hear spiritual songs, Russian romances and songs, which once used to be Polish, but now have already become Ukrainian.
