The legacy of the children's songs of Eastern Europe provides an almost inexhaustible reservoir of graceful, imaginative, mystical and cheerful stories. The most beautiful of them are presented on this album. The jazz trio East Drive is accompanied by old and new musical friends and companions to bring these songs to life. East Drive is one of the most dazzling phenomena of Europe's jazz scene today. They combine both strong melodies and dense rhythms with a freely improvised approach in their music, yet still not being afraid of straightforwardness and clear harmonical ideas. Every performance by East Drive becomes its own unique reality, due to their readyness to take risks and blind trust, their ability and will to pick up and perpetuate any impulse of the others, their pristine energy, pure impulse and sheer endless creativity.
