Of the many songs, ballads and caroling songs that have accompanied our ancestors in our countries for centuries during the holy Christmas season, about twenty of them are commonly sung. The author of polyphonic adaptations, Zuzana Vlčinská, was happy to include not only well-known carols, but also almost forgotten gems of this genre, mostly from the Moravian and Silesian region, in the Poslyšte collection.
Carol is not only a song, but also a game and a ritual of meeting, giving, and sharing the good news of the Savior's birth and new hope in the middle of winter. And Zuzana Vlčinská tries to bring 30 carols closer to these roots in accordance with her own unique pedagogical-therapeutic method of experiential singing. Through a songbook and a CD, everyone can be inspired to sing together in an inspiring way using elementary musical and declamatory means. The simplicity of the adjustments mainly concerns the low level of execution, but it certainly does not mean musical trivialities. These arrangements can be seen as a basis for spontaneous joint music making ad libitum. Likewise, the enclosed CD with a recording of most of the carols performed by the chamber choir Ensemble Guillaume, Zuzana Vlčinská and Zuzana Lapčíková does not mean a single correct approach and interpretation. Rather, it is a kind of sample book of ideas and arrangement possibilities.
