Collection: Russian Folk Music The “Songs of Ustya” album opens another side of the North Russian folk tradition. Alexandra Vasilyevna Kokorina is more than 80, and she is a very special person. She knows almost every possible song found in Ustya district of Arkhangelsk region: lyric and drawling songs, chastushkas, dance songs, circle dance songs and recruiting (military) songs. Preserving the inimitable local dialect Alexandra Kokorina is a native informant of rare proverbs, sayings and set phrases virtually lost in modern speech.
The “Songs of Ustya” album was recorded in April, 2014 in Orlovo village of Ustya district of Arkhangelsk region, in “baba Sanya’s” house; and the album preserves all her warmth and sincerity. The recording was initiated by Alexey Sheptunov, an Arkhangelsk musician, a folk researcher, a journalist, the leader of the MOON FAR AWAY neofolk group. The two-disc edition contains not only songs but a number of videos with Alexandra Vasilyevna Kokorina. |

Collection: Russian Folk Music Subcollection: Gypsy Music At later stage gipsy singers abandoned traditional popular songs in favor of Russian romances. The Russian composers of that time pretty often used diverse national melodic elements - Spanish, Italian, Oriental - and imitated correspondent performance manner, gipsy way of singing, in the fi rst place. Its emphatic expression, drastic change of themes, excessive emotions and passionate openness were extremely genuine and original. Nowadays brilliant Russian romances - “Blue Eyes”, “Long Road”, “Don’t Rush Your Horses, Coachman” and many others - are defi nitely associated with gipsy way of singing and sung by gipsy ensembles on a regular basis.
The CD presents the authentic phenomenon in all its diversity. Different singers and variously composed ensembles present their own interpretation of Russian romances, town songs at the turn of XIX-XX centuries, modern songs related to gipsy fate. But easily recognizable singing manner of Russian gipsies pierces the whole album. |
