Orpheus In Exile: The Songs Of Vadim Kozin

MARC ALMOND Orpheus In Exile: The Songs Of Vadim Kozin (2009 issue UK 13-track CD, the fourteenth solo studio album by the British singer/songwriter, features Russia's most famous folk ensemble, Orchestra Rossiya, and sees Kozim's lyrics specially translated for Marc [having never been sung in English previously]. The flamboyance & despair of Kozin is juxtaposed by the ever-present optimism of a lost genre of song. Marc gives these universal concerns an overdue airing on a unique album that gives the original songs an all-new big, classy and stylized orchestral production, yet stays true to the original feel and roots of the songs; fold-out digipak picture sleeve with integral booklet, within a picture card slipcase)

Tracklisting & More Information

Vadim Kozin was the Soviet era's much-loved, exiled then forgotten singer of Gypsy Folk and Russian Torch Song Romances. Marc discovered Kozin's work on his first visit to Russia in 1992 and was immediately taken with the purity and passion of his voice, as well as the beauty and melancholy of his songs, which are enhanced by the hardships Kozin suffered throughout his life. Recorded & mixed in Moscow and having joined forces with Russian producer & musical arranger Alexei Fedorov [who shares both Marcs love of Kozin and his aim to help bring his repertoire to a new audience], 'Oprheus in Exile' features Russia's most famous folk ensemble, Orchestra Rossiya, and sees Kozim's lyrics specially translated for Marc [having never been sung in English previously]. The flamboyance & despair of Kozin is juxtaposed by the ever-present optimism of a lost genre of song. Marc gives these universal concerns an overdue airing on a unique album that gives the original songs an all-new big, classy and stylized orchestral production, yet stays true to the original feel and roots of the songs!
