HORŇÁCKÁ MUZIKA MIROSLAVA MINKSE
Pesnyčky Ze Lhoték

Gnosis Brno G-MUSIC 013 (1999)

From the Moravian village of Nová Lhota, solo and ensemble singers brought together by fiddler and collector Miroslav Minks with his band of fiddles, violas, clarinets, cimbalom, bagpipe. Two particularly great high, hard voices: 75 year old Josef Špaček and mightily impressive 13 year old Jiřina Miklošková.
