In October, 2009 our group went on ethnographic expedition to Palesse. Those were three unforgettable days of travelling, meeting new people and singing. We recorded over 10 hours of valuable material, which is currently being arranged. Not sure if we found the song, which no ethnographer heard, but that was not our purpose. We went to experience the true mutual ancient manner of singing. We appreciate villagers of Atverzhychy (Stolin district) and Kliatnaya (Pinsk district) for the treasure which they shared with us. With all our strength we will promote and keep it with NO CHANGES everything that was heard and seen.
