Thanks Alexander - we call those "driveway moments" in the radio trade... because usually that's how it happens - pull into the driveway, ready to turn off the car, and just can't because the song (or news story, or whatever) is too good. Glad you were able to safely experience one of those moments on the open road!
Has to be one of the best and most unique collection of pieces I've heard on new sounds. You know it's good when you literally have to pull over and just listen while on your ride home.
Nonesuch and The Pennywhistlers did this wonderful choral music back in 1966.
The Pennywhistlers can be seen on YouTube.
Folksongs of Eastern Europe.
Nonesuch Records HS 72007, [1966]
