Kuzmich Orchestra's compositions oscillate between intimate gentleness supported by Dorota Barova's extraordinary singing, electro-acustic neo-folk in which acoustic guitar intertwines with layering of vocals, and tougher big-beat stand, in which dominate repetitive guitar and bass guitar riffs with minimalistic drums.
… thus creating images of open spaces, landscapes, wastelands, ancient trees, unity of elements of earth, air and water... clean linearity of music, where singing and guitar seem to be live lines, independent clusters of stops and points which nevertheless together create a sort of energetic vibration, fluctuation, resonance.
