NYT про Мар'яну Садовську - не пропустіть зустріч в неділю, 24го січня, в Культурному Центрі!

"One thoroughly worldly individualist was Mariana Sadovska, a Ukrainian musician based in Germany. She wrung startling drama from traditionalist songs turned contemporary in a set that spanned folklore, humor, grief and rage. Her voice holds the clarity and bite of Slavic folk styles; her stage presence has the bright-eyed intensity of Björk or PJ Harvey. Backed by Christian Thomé on drums and electronics, Ms. Sadovska moved between acoustic instruments — harmonium, jaw harp — and her own keyboards and electronics. She summarized her songs before she sang them, among them a creation myth, a New Year’s ritual involving a goat, and a bitter, furious reflection on Ukraine after the Russian invasion, all of them vividly focused."

The show at Webster Hall on Sunday featured 12 overlapping sets that included a variety of music, much of it affirming a heritage or giving it a personal twist.

Прямуючи в Україну, яка в 30-ті роки переживала не найкращі часи, Майкл Шемрок був повен надій і планів. Інженер за фахом, він думав, що буде корисним у створенні соціалістичної держави майбутнього, у чому йому допомагатиме син Пітер. Однак американець помирає, отримавши секретні папери про репресії…
