VOLOSI is one of the most prominent ensembles in the Polish world music scene. Their debut at The New Tradition Festival in 2010 yielded all possible awards. One year later their piece “Dusk” won Svetozar Stracina Grand Prix at The European Broadcasting Union in Bratislava, named the best European folk composition in 2011. In 2012 their CD ranked among the top in the World Music Charts Europe. VOLOSI and their music reach far beyond the folk music category. Its essence is the energy of remote musical worlds colliding. Crossing boundaries is part of the show. Traditional musicians meet classical instrumentalists and travel along, reaching the unheard before. Their music derives from the tradition only partly. Rather, they are people immersed in tradition, creating a totally new quality. It was the same story when jazz was born. Even though their music sounds familiar, it really is entirely original and inimitable. Here is what they say about playing together: “Remembering something that we have forgotten is the root of our music making. It is a primeval joy of conversing with sounds. It is something that truly moves us and puts us into a trance. Purely sensual feeling, fun with rhythm, sounds, harmony and echoes. We love this trance.” Since their debut VOLOSI performed internationally during many concerts, festivals end events. Their concert tours in Germany, Denmark, Georgia, Ukraine, and Belarus have been received enthusiastically by critics and the public. They performed for country leaders of Poland, Netherlands, Belgium, Hungary, Latvia, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Ukraine. Their concerts was live broadcasted by Polish Radio 2, Polish Radio 3 and Westdeutscher Rundfunk 3.s

I fell in love with this natural knot hole as a sound hole, and chose this one over the very lovey cherry with the vine desgn.
