Digman's World, CD Review >>

Performed under the intense musical barrage of barbarian drumfire, and filled with the ancient (and unexpected) vocal rights of 'white voice' communication (feminist shepherd calls). PEOPLE'S SPRING is a six-member band featuring the historical reconstruction effort of Trance Therapy Polish Music Ethnography. Creating into modern CD art the artful beauty of musical primitivism.

Instinctive music; the Warsaw Village Band opens with "To You Kasiunia", a wedding song that begins with the hammered dexterity of dulcimer (guest performer Marta Stanislawska), and then cumulates musically into a crescendo of trumpet (Piotr Korzen Korzeniowski), archaic rhythms, and the white voice fever of dance. A listening, as well as moving, experience.

The third-track "At My Mother's" is the slow step of ancient music infusion. A well arranged story of sultry folklore (when a girl becomes a woman), which is melodically carried once again, by the excellent push of trumpeter: Piotr Korzen Korzeniowski.

"Who Is Getting Married" (the seventh-track) is the historic emancipation of a young Polish girl who refuses to marry. Driven by the power of voice-noise (feminism) that is sung within the unstructured (but rhythmic parameters), of well-played drums.

Embellished by such instruments as the Polish fiddle (suka), hurdy-gurdy, jew's-harp, and the dhol (drum); PEOPLE'S SPRING is a fifteen-track 'Spring Fever' Musical Festival, of traditional, and surprisingly beautiful… Polish Songs!
