Lidija Maxymjak. Kolyskovi dlja ditej. (Lullabies for Children)

Lullabies are, probably, those songs that will never be superfluous. At least, I very much rely on that. As the mother is the first person who can demonstrate beauty to her child, teach harmony. And a melody, tender singing is the easiest way to do that. Especially – with a baby who, except for the mother, does not notice or perceive virtually anything in the world around. And the more lullabies the mother knows – the better. However, even if she does not know them herself – there are discs with lullabies, and quite a bit. One can pick them up for any taste. Both modern, and most ancient, and in modern arrangements, and in authentic performance. We have in this case, first, more or less modernized sounding. But, certainly, not sharp one – a lullaby should, in any case, sound soft. And, secondly, not really widespread Ukrainian lullabies are collected here. It is rather not easy to find the songs sung here on some other discs, except for a few well-known pieces. And they are worth attention – because they are just beautiful. However, it is up to you to choose – thus, listen.
