Ancient epic songs of the Olonets province
Bylina of Fofanov I.T. is performed by Scobelev O.A.
Dear listeners! You hold a disco with the record of “About Dobrynya” bylina, probably the first complete record of the bylina made in the 21st century. It is a reconstruction because bylinas were last recorded in traditional environment in the 1950s. Since that time performing of bylinas by native folk singers has completely stopped. This bylina was reconstructed on the basis of the old sound record of Ivan Terentievich Fofanov the famous narrator (1873-1943) who dictated the text of this bylina.
Bylina is a Russian ancient epic song. The plot of bylina is some heroic event or a remarkable episode from the Russian history. The term “bylina” was first used by I.P Saharov, folklorist (1807-1863) in the 1840s.
The first bylinas appeared probably before the Baptism of Russia (988) and they had features of very ancient pagan epic songs, which were later “Christianized”. According to the place of their origin bylinas are divided into Kiev and Novgorodian, and later All-Russian ones. The peculiar poetic language of bylinas and the way to perform them had developed for many centuries. It is considered that in old time narrators performed bylinas playing the gusli, later their performance was a type of cantillation. The basis of the special bylina’s accentual verse is commensurability of lines and stresses that result in rhythmic uniformity. Although the narrators used only few melodies they enriched them with various intonations and also they changed their timbre.
As a rule a bylina consists of three parts: the introduction, which is not directly related to the content, its aim is to prepare the audience for listening, then the main part (action) and the conclusion. |

THE VOICE OF PIRIN - music: Kiril Stefanov 2:14
Pirin Ensemble was founded more than 55 years ago in Blagoevgrad. The ensemble quickly established itself as one of the best and attractive formations in Bulgaria. Its repertoire includes original songs and dances mainly from the Pirin region. But in recent years the ensemble increasingly features also music from other folk areas. The album “Old Treasure” shows this variety of music and dance, presented on the stage by the extremely beautiful costumes of the performers. Divided into two parts, the programme includes myths and rituals, holidays and weekdays not only from Southwest Bulgaria, but also from other Bulgarian folklore regions. Swift shoppe ring dances (horos) alternate with the exquisite women ring dances, with Pirin dances and the hefty men’s Dobrudja dancing. The choir, orchestra and soloists with their skill and talent are equal partners which shape the overall stage picture. PIRIN, the Bulgarian ensemble for songs and dances, is a generous gift to the world! - This recognition comes from Columbia Concert House, USA and it summarizes in one sentence the creative achievements of the ensemble and its impact on the viewers. |

Subkolektion: Ethno
According to the Indian tradition Nandi is the lord of drums and Nataraja is the lord of dance and therefore the pieces were named Nandi Nataraja`. Although there are 6 tracks on the cd, the project is conceived as one whole single song to be listened all at once. Nandi Nataraja comes from Indian oral tradition and it reflects the classical Carnatic music with its raga and taga system.

Kolektion: TraditionalTheodora Baka (born in Larissa, Greece) has been familiar with the traditional songs of her homeland since she was a child. The singer is accompanied by an unusual formation (’ud, lyre, and zarb) that underscores the songs’ remote, southern timbre. Her versatile voice celebrates in song the old legends and myths of her homeland, laments the lost freedom of a young bride, and converses with a lover. The yearning sound of Baka’s voice is captivating.
