Beautiful recordings! My grandma was Ukrainian and always used to sing folk songs from her childhood, these remind me a lot of her 💛💙
Favorite track: Da nad moeiu hatynoiu (Lyrical song).
Natalia Serbina jest etnomuzykologiem, pedagogiem, badaczką terenową i wykonawczynią muzyki tradycyjnej, zwłaszcza z centralnej Ukrainy, którą się zajmuje od 1995 r. Bada także folklor muzyczny Ukraińców rosyjskich (Omska, Kurska, Biełgarodska obłast'). w roku 2000 ukończyła Narodową Akademię Muzyczną im. Czajkowskiego w klasie Jewhena Jefremowa. Studia doktoranckie zakończyła pracą o lirycznych pieśniach ukraińskich. Śpiewała w zespołach Bożiczi i Drewo, od 2008 kierowała zespołem Striła. Od 2010 dużo występuje solowo, prowadzi warsztaty. Jest chyba dzisiaj jedyną ukraińską lirniczką tradycyjną. W tradycyjnej praktyce to zajęcie zarezerwowane zwyczajowo było dla mężczyzn, chociaż wyjątki się zdarzały. O wątku kobiecym w lirnictwie pisze Natalia Kononenko w swojej pracy "Ukrainian minstrels", a i sama Natalia Serbina prowadzi własne badania w tym zakresie. Mimo tego jej działalność budzi na Ukrainie liczne kontrowersje. Sporo występuje w Rosji, gdzie przyjaźni się z wykonawcami z kręgu zespołu Sirin i gdzie wydała swoją pierwszą solową płytę w 2011.

My grandparents arrived in Canada from Ukraine in the early 1900s, so this is a must have for me - especially from a wonderful label of historical goodies. Rod Stasick
