Earth

by Pinski Zoo

EARTH is a collection of Jan’s commissioned music written to accompany the classic silent film by Dovzhenko. A soviet propaganda film that he transformed into a near mystical vision of the Ukrainian countryside and it’s people.

The music follows different scenes through the film and follows that beguiling mixture of hope, despair, mystery and sadness, playing tenor and alto saxes Jan is joined by daughter Janina Kopinska on viola, son Stefan on bass and long time musical colleague Steve Iliffe on grand piano.

  • Jan Kopinski – saxophones
  • Steve Iliffe – grand piano
  • Janina Kopinska – viola
  • Stefan Kopinski – bass

Kopinski has a sensitivity to visuals as reflected in other scores he's performed for silent movies. … using his own family in the band Kopinski evokes the intimate, inexplicable binds/bonds of family life …..he evokes Slav folk music, melancholic and lost to an irrecoverable past, but Iliffe's broken chords also reflect the equally lost world of discordant modernism
