Lyla


A unique project of the famous Lithuanian folk music singer Veronika Povilionienė and the performers of Indian classical music merges archaic Lithuanian folk songs and instrumental improvisations performed in the Hindustani tradition. In their music these two apparently different cultures enrich each other and converge, revealing their distant, but common, Indo-European origins. In 2004 Lyla released the widely acclaimed album Bitinėlio raga (Bee Raga), whose lineup included, besides Veronika Povilionienė, the famous folklorist Gvidas Kovėra (from Keisto folkloro grupė and Tylos Labanoro), the multiinstrumentalists Ernestas Jepifanovas (from Atalyja) and Žaneta Svabonaitė.
