| Ridni Naspivy
A wonderful combined effort of the well-known folk instrumental ensemble Ridni Naspivy and the duet of the Pryjmaky brothers of Kyiv! They perform very familiar Christmas carols and songs as well as less familiar ones, and also include a number of traditional "Vinshuvannja" or well wishes presented to the hosts by carolers who visit homes during the Christmas season and sing for the families. A fresh album, with acoustic, folk accompaniment! (And a few English carols redone in Ukrainian!) Texts are given in the liner notes.
