A Surprise in Every Piece

There are some recordings which captivate the listener immediately. This is one of them; and it’s very surprising as well: by its theme, its music, and by the commitment of the singers led by Katarina Livljanić. The singing is luminous. Truly. This is music which makes your soul and your body vibrate, and in front of which one remains speechless. This record is an absolute discovery.
