Slavic Folk Songs is a powerful a cappella album performed by Latvian singers Ansis Bētiņš and Artūrs Čukurs. Produced by Maria W. Horn and released via the Stockholm-based XKatedral label, the album focuses on Ukrainian traditional songs and chants. It features a mix of studio recordings and a live performance at Fylkingen, Stockholm, from March 2023.
The songs are based on oral traditions, performed in the "white voice" style characteristic of Slavic folk music. The album explores themes of struggle, hope, joy, and love while showcasing the richness of Slavic singing traditions. The duo began their journey by researching Slavic folk music, inspired by its beauty and emotional depth, and sought to preserve its heritage, especially in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which endangered these traditions.
Ansis and Artūrs arranged the songs for two voices, emphasizing honesty and respect rather than historical accuracy. Their shared passion for vocal traditions and friendship deepened their exploration, making this project a personal and cultural journey. Both artists are academically trained in music, with extensive studies in Latvia, Italy, the Netherlands, and the Czech Republic. The album reflects their admiration for Slavic music and its timeless beauty.
