When jazz weaves itself into the fabric of Siberian folklore, the result is nothing short of alchemy. Ekaterina Ungvari, a singer whose voice carries the weight of philology and the lightness of improvisation, has stitched together her latest album, "Siberian Songs", like a master tailor crafting a quilt from forgotten melodies.
Ekaterina laughs when she recalls how her grandmother’s lullabies—whispered like secrets—became the foundation for an album that dances between jazz, rock, and the raw earthiness of folk. "Summertime", Gershwin’s classic, was her gateway drug:
she muses. The result? A collection where tradition doesn’t just whisper—it roars.
