Description
 
This CD is devoted entirely to folk music of national minorities living in Poland today. Not much is left of the national mosaic typical of the Polish Kingdom before the 18th century partitions of the country, but still much enough to reject the thesis from the times of Communist Poland, claiming that our post-war population was an ethnic monolith. Here we begin with two Slavic minorities, Ukrainians and Belorussians, both estimated at 300,000 - 400,000 people and close to Poles genetically and historically. The accompanying English/Polish booklet desciribes in detail, the artists, the music and history behind them. Selections 1 - 11 present music of the Lemkos from the lower Beskid. Selections 12 - 21 present the music of the Boykos from the Bieszczady mountains. Selections 27 - 32 present Ukrainian music from from southern Podlasie. Selections 33 - 40 present Ukrainian and Belorussian music from northern Podlasie. Selections 41 - 45 present Belorussian music from northern Podlasie.
