Hunter Nocturne


On March 29 1957 Dr. Zynovij Shtokalko, one of the great bandurists of twentieth century, went into the basement of his Brooklyn apartment, picked up his bandura and turned on the tape recorder.  Forty years later the resulting music, Atonal Etudes 1 & 2, became the inspiration and starting point for this project.

The bandura is a string instrument originating in Ukraine, where blind bards (kobzari) used it to accompany thir epic songs.  For the last three years Michael Andrec, Jurij Fedynsky, and Julian Kytasty have worked together as the Experimental Bandura Trio to develop a contemporary musical language for this ancient instrument.  This CD is the product of those sessions.

Our sincere thanks to:

cover photo Chagall - I and village - 1910

Our music is based on  elements of original Slavic melodies, written down in 19th century by a famous Polish folk music researcher, Oskar Kolberg.
Several original Slavic instruments were used in our recordings, of which Wielkopolska drone pipes, ancient Slavic panpipes, and a Kurpie wooden trumpet are only examples.  A classical cello and guitar were also used.
This booklet contains notes recording themes that inspired us, and a map on which you can find places in old Poland where the tunes originated.
We feel that in our music ancient themes have acquired a new age aura.  Traditional Slavic melodies empowered with our inspiration gained pristine strength and a new harmony.
