Traveling through Roztocze

Roztocze, eastern Poland, near the Ukrainian border. Here, wind instruments reigned supreme: Western concert flutes, horns, tubas, trombones. All of these accompanied the fiddle at weddings. There are few recordings of this music, but this CD is full of them.
The bands in this collection were no longer playing at weddings by the end of the 1970s. The CD recording also contains groups of women singing beautiful and ceremonial songs ? you can hear the Ukrainian influences in them.
