Ősi, tradícionális litván énekek.
Saucjas (Saucjás) is a traditional singing group presenting Latvian songs from ancient times. The group’s full and powerful singing often features intricate and dissonant intervals, enthralling contemporary listeners with a vibrant and inspired performance. Saucējas, the traditional singing group of the Latvian Academy of Culture, was established in 2003 in Riga. Its members focus on traditional Latvian singing styles and techniques, with particular attention to those local traditions involving multipart singing.
Their repertoire includes various types of archaic polyphony, such as drone singing, as well as a variety of later forms of multipart singing including songs linked with seasonal festivals, family celebrations, daily life and various types of work. The finest examples of traditional Latvian vocal music were developed and long practised outdoors, in a natural acoustic environment, with the singers making use of various elements in their surroundings to enhance the sound. We can thus assume that nature played a significant role in and influenced the form, stylistics, manner of singing and other elements of this musical tradition.
