Label:
SOUNDS OF SUBTERRANIA
"This is one my most beloved albums ... it always reminds me of the horror that occurred in my homeland, Ukraine, in 1933.
And I am always thankful when I hear it. It is good to remember the suffering of other people ! Otherwise, life is not worth living.....
This album came about in an interesting way .... there came to me a melody at some point that year ...
I was not even at the piano .... a melody that I just began to sing ... This album also contains "ISLANDS" for solo piano --- a remarkable bass-oriented piece depicting enormous masses of mystical and murky islands moving through an imaginary sea..
It was inspired by and created for a dance performance by Windwitches of Stockholm." Lubomyr Melnyk Original Release: 1984 - Now a limited All Analog Remastering Recording in very special packaging!
