Polish Music at Polish Hall - True Life Trio
True Life Trio weaves sumptuous vocal harmonies and sultry rhythms from Eastern Europe, the Americas & beyond. This innovative trio explores the creative possibilities of cross-fertilization of different traditions with unlikely timbres bringing to Portland for this show new repertory from Poland:
U Mojej Matecki (At My Mother's) - Gorale region of Poland, from the repertoire of the Warsaw Village Band
Zielony Mosteczek (The Green Bridge) - traditional song known throughout Poland
Lec Głosie (Fly My Voice) - traditional melody from northern Poland, arranged by TLT
Oj Kochanie, Kochanie (Oh, Love, Love) - Gorale region of Poland, arranged by TLT
TLT's improvisation-laced repertoire includes original songs and folk tunes from far-flung lands such as Macedonia, Louisiana, Albania, South Africa, Ukraine, Mexico, Poland, Italy and Georgia. Featuring the powerful vocal talents of three dynamic performers whose musical collaboration was forged in Kitka Women's Vocal Ensemble, the trio delves deep into a vast array of folk music that lends itself to three-part vocal harmony, massaging and expanding the boundaries of these traditional styles. The result is a sweet, sonic explosion that melts in the listener's ear and that is uniquely True Life Trio.
True Life Trio is:
Leslie Bonnett: voice, fiddle, percussion
Briget Boyle: voice, guitar, percussion
Juliana Graffagna: voice, bass, percussion
