Julian Kytasty is celebrated around the world as a master of the bandura. This plucked string instrument has become a symbol of Ukraine through it's association with the deep tradition of the kobzari. On Songs of Truth, he brings expressive clarity and vibrancy to this centuries-old repertoire of these blind bards through skillfully retold historical epics, timeless philosophical songs, biting satire, and joyful dance tunes.
