REVIEWS:
"Steeped in Ukrainian traditional music but with one foot firmly in the present... ethereal quality of Alexis Kochan's voice and the tasteful incorporation of diverse musical styles..."
David McGunigal Interchange April 1994
"For something completely different, there's a new collection of beautiful Ukrainian songs... by Winnipeg quartet Paris to Kiev. Combining a variety of wind and reed instruments (including some lovely pan flute) this classy recording features the fine voice of Alexis Kochan and should sell briskly amongst the country's sizeable Ukrainian community.
Heck, it could even cross a few musical borders- I'm a rocker at heart, but I found the cleanly produced material soothing and quite enchanting."
James O'Connor Uptown March 10, 1994

What an addiction!! I bought ALL of the CD's of this group & still can't get enough. It doesn't matter if you don't understand the language. These are timeless songs & speak to the ear of the heart. You owe it to yourself to indulge in these beautiful cloaks of sound & color. Bravo! Encore!!
