 Please get in touch if you'd like physical copies of the double cd, since I have about 12 here in Europe. Otherwise, it's available directly from the label in Australia.

 "A dialogue with the Balkans musical tradition in contemporary transfiguration."

 Available through the great Ramble Records, Vigilance Suite I & II is Jeff Gburek utilizing guitar, zither and an e-bow to process the horror of the war that is currently still sweeping through his ancestral homeland of Ukraine.

The album’s music, 20 different suites spread across two CDs, is rich with tension and melancholia, but it does spiral off occasionally into side tangents and even light moments that evoke a sense of hope.

If Elkhorn’s acoustic improvisations and the more impressionistic work of Pelt are your thing, then this is a record that will move you to your core. Click here to get your copy today.
