БАНДУРНА МУЗИКА
OКСАНИ ГЕРАСИМЕНКО
"The
mystery of the soul, of love; the enigmatic birth of music...
All
these are best desribed by just one Ukrainian word "TAINA".
Таїна
людської душі, вічна таїна кохання, божественна таїна народження музики...

Originating in many countries, where Oksana toured, the pieces often came to life impulsively, recreating a memoir or happening in the life of the composer. Wonderful images - "Blue Sky Melody", "Sun's Ray", "Autumn Dreams", "Rain Fantasy" - open up a curious world, painted with colors of music. With light, impressionistic touches the images charm with finds of timbre and strains of finesse. The music of these and other pieces seems enveloped by some mystery, secreted deep in the soul of its author, who confides only in her bandura. And the unusual combination of bandura, flute, cello and string quartet rather successfully transmits the dreamy mood of Ok. Herasymenko's music. Such combinations are like new pages in the repertoire of the old Ukrainian folk instrument.
So listen in. Listen closely to Oksana Herasymenko's music... and the feeling of peace, of lasting beauty, and the sense of participating in a great mustery of art will never leave you...
