about

Lubomyr Melnyk's latest release, and his latest creation: He describes the music as a Film For The Mind " ... it is highly unusual work, where the Right Hand keeps an endless stream of patterned tones, while the Left Hand sails like a ship on the sea , through Harmonic cadences spread over two octaves .... it is a sombre and though-provoking piece.

Dedicated to the heroic Ukrainian soldiers who held out against the enormous Russian army for several weeks in the Azov Steel Plant of Mariupol.... it is a spiritual journey into the soul of man... into the Beautiful Depths of our spiritual strength.

One side (Side Studio) is the ANALOG Hi Fi recording made when Lubomyr had just
created this piece in the recording hall .... and Side Two (Side Live) is the same piece, with some changes, recorded just 3 days later in live concert.

This is an historic album, that should be heard !
