Greek folk ensemble "Sartanski Samotsvity". Of, Mana, Vay!

So then, here is the second disc of music, songs and dances (pay attention to the video) of Ukrainian Greeks. "Sartanski Samotsvety" is a Greek folk ensemble, the members of which come from Ukraine, from the village of Sartany in Mariupol region. The brochure added to the disc tells much about the ensemble itself and the Greeks who live on the territory of Ukraine in general – you will have the chance to read everything by yourselves. This year “Sartanski Samotsvety” will be 70, and it is considered to be the leading Greek ensemble in Azov region. That’s the very reason why it is known not only at home, but also in Russia, Georgia, Greece and Cyprus. Now we know it as well, and all that is quite astonishing. At least, it is astonishing personally for me. That is, I know that Ukraine is a multi-national country, but it has somehow never occurred to me that our folk songs and melodies (after all, Azov Greeks are a part of our nation) may sound in such a way as well. At the same time, all that is not only unusual and interesting, but it is nice – and this is the main thing about it. A person who is not indifferent to folk art should not disregard this disc - irrespective of the folk art the ensemble gives preference to.

Anton Jozhik Leyba (Hedgehog)

Dark Patrick. Fainne Gael an Lae.


For every question has its answer, therefore as a result the amount of magic beauty in our world gradually increases – and thus more quiet happiness is reflected in human eyes. Music by the group Dark Patrick evidently demonstrates that even in sad melodies a trifle of joy always lives, and in joyful melodies there is always space for deep, free breathing.

Yuriy Kovtun. BraviBelli.


...the album at once creates elated, festive mood – but in a surprising way. In the correct way. Because, although about a half of the compositions can hardly be called merry ones – a smile is very expressly felt in them. Somewhere dim, somewhere transparent, somewhere dreamy, somewhere thoughtful – but it is present in each piece, and it warms.

Olexa Kabanov. Ambrelyre. Polyphonic wheel lyre.


Far not every musician is able to breathe in real life into age-old instruments, to let them sound brightly, deeply – not with glass strasses, but with jewels. Olexa Kabanov, no doubt, is. In his performance traditional melodies sound as if they did not have hundreds of years behind their back – to that extent they are live, close, and warm.

Greek folk ensemble "Bir Taifa". Dzhanym.

Folk Instrumental Orchestra of the International Culture & Art Centre Kyiv. Melodies Known Worldwide.


This is a masterly and harmonious performance of a great orchestra consisting of real masters, which is rated highly not only in Ukraine, but far beyond its bounds.

Sbyranka. Karpatiana.


Carpathians are a peculiar and, in a certain way, separate space, in which musical likings of several people meet and merge into something integral. That’s why it comes as no surprise that not only Ukrainian, but also Moldavian, Romanian and even Jewish melodies are presented in this album.

World known dances.


The name of a disc speaks for itself. Here are hopak, sirtaki, lezginka, hava-nagila. Executed on a synthesiser, these melodies are intended rather not for domestic listening, but for use at lessons of dances, or in the dramatised performances or concerts at school or kindergarten.

Olexa Kabanov. Wind from the Orient.


It seems that every musician who follows the way of self-perfection early or late faces the music culture of the East – and gets penetrated with it. In the end, it is difficult to stay indifferent to this beauty. Thus, the only thing left is to let it in, let it through and – let it go. Evidently, Olexa succeeded in it – you will hear that yourself.
