GETTING TO KNOW DUET AGATA
by Jacqueline Jax host of A.V.A Live Radio
Interviewing: Irena Kotvitskaya
The project uniqueness and novelty is in the interaction of specific vocal and instrumental lines. The vocal line is traditional, sacral. It saves dialects, archaic mood and manner. The instrumental line combines the author’s performance style and techniques of modern music styles (world music). The accordion and the voice often coexist in different tonal and rhythmic plans that create a polyphonic effect and make parts more self-sufficient.
Song name: Jurja
Music Genre: neo folk/ world music/accordion&vocal
Ancient pre-Christian texts and authentic dialects have gained the unique sound due to the original author’s treatment. Belarusian song heritage is placed within modern musical context which includes minimalism, neo-classic and common European folk music forms (waltz, tango, salsa, milonga).
“Jurja ” it’s Pre-Christian prayer for a good harvest, song of spring period. This аuthentic song is more than 1000 years old
