Synopsis

Product Description

Peter Ostroushko's new recording celebrates the holiday spirit with music from a multicultural landscape he calls the "Heartland." It's a musical journey, from the beautiful ancient a cappella carols of Peter's Ukrainian heritage to hot Brazilian choros as interpreted by Peter's mandolin. Recorded live in concert at the Fitzgerald Theater, Peter is backed by a stellar group featuring the vocal talents of Ruth Mackenzie, Tatiana Riabokin, and the awesome dreaded Nowytski Sisters. Become a part of Peter Ostroushko's Heartland Holiday Concert tradition.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a quality recording of a wonderful Christmas concert that includes a very international selection of music. "Carol of the Drum" is a nice, quiet rendition of The Little Drummer Boy. "Shchedryk (Carol of the Bells)" is a fun "Grateful Ostroushko" jam that goes something like Shchedryk (with the traditional Ukrainian lyrics, as opposed to Carol of the Bells lyrics) => God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen (instrumental) => drums => Shchedryk (instrumental)... Peter's mandolin work is beautiful throughout. One of my very favorite Christmas CDs!"
