Journey of Voice contains 16 tracks featuring
many vocal traditions from around the world as far as Rajasthan
to Bolivia! Not only the CD highlights the astounding diversity
of cultures but as well spans across different musical genres,
including fiery Russian gypsy tradition, native Brazilian
chants, seductive French cabaret and cool jazz ballads among
others.
With a rich voice as at ease in Russian, Tatar, French, Portugeuse,
Bulgarian and Spanish Zulya captures the vulnerable yet powerful
expressions of sorrow and desperation as well as tenderness
and joy with skill and integrity.
"My wish is to show the fascinating richness
and beauty of songs of our world which can draw us closer
to a more common understanding of each other's culture"
says Zulya.
Accompanying this remarkable singer are seven fine musicians,
Martin Tucker (keyboard, kora, flute, percussion), Cary Lewincamp
(guitar), Fred Bradshaw (saxophone), Nick Glade-Wright and
Dan Magnus (percussion), Mauricio Duarte (guitar) and Kevin
Cooney (bass) providing colourful and appropriate backing
arrangements to the vocals which are the main feature.
