New Sounds
New Americans: Eastern Europe
Show #2732
Tuesday, November 06, 2007
There's music from Kitka, the all-women's ensemble who specialize in Balkan music on this New Sounds from a brand new release in collaboration with the Ukrainian-born singer and composer Mariana Sadovska. "The Rusalka Cycle" is part transformative choral music based on laments from the Rusalki - in Slavic folklore, the restless spirits of women who have died unjust or untimely deaths found in streams and lakes, forests and fields – and part tradition-keeping, as Sadovska’s ethnomusicological work ensures that these song traditions are not lost. The full theatrical production will be on stage in San Francisco on January 4-6, 2008. Also on the show, music by Ljova, Victoria Jordanova, Dusan Bogdanovic, and Milos Raickovich, to name a few.
