Vinyl 'Chants des prisonniers sibériens aujourd'hui' by Dina Vierny

Vinyl of the album, "Songs of The Siberian Prisoners" - Dina Vierny

This rare album by Dina Vierny is a unique collection from one of the few 'Westerners' who had direct contact with the first common-law prisoners returning from Siberia during the period of openness under Khrushchev.

In Moscow, Dina Vierny heard these songs filled with a terrible pent-up rage. She memorized them to let the world know - it would have been difficult to smuggle any recordings through customs. Back in Paris, she recorded these poignant pieces during a grand evening with her disenfranchised Russian poet friends. Along the way, she added some light arrangements, a guitar, a double bass, to these raw voices...
