Ukrainian Folk Jazz – Leléka

In the organizer's words:

Since its foundation in 2016, the Berlin-based ethno-jazz band LELÉKA, led by singer Viktoria Leléka, has dedicated itself to reviving old Ukrainian folk songs. The rhythmic and formal basis is jazz, while folk elements are heard harmonically and LELÉKA follows folk music models in terms of melody, articulation and phrasing. However, the arrangements do not look back, but breathe new, modern life into folk music with contemporary settings and improvisations. The band's position between the worlds is also evidenced by the prizes they have won at both the "creole" world music competition in Berlin and the young talent jazz prize in Burghausen.
