#MounseyMinute: Eileen – “Shchedryk / Carol Of the Bells” (Audio)
Digital Single
YouTube – Dec 20, 2020
*#MounseyMinute: Eileen – “Shchedryk / Carol Of the Bells” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqeJ38DThVc // https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shchedryk_(song) // “Shchedryk” (Щедрик, from Ukrainian: Щедрий вечiр, lit. ’Bountiful Evening’) is a Ukrainian ‘shchedrivka’ [uk], or New Year’s song, known in English as “The Little Swallow”. The song tells a story of a swallow flying into a household to sing of the wealth that will come with the following spring. It was made into a Christmas carol, “Carol of the Bells”, by the American composer and educator Peter J. Wilhousky, following a performance of Leontovych’s composition by Alexander Koshetz’s Ukrainian National Chorus at Carnegie Hall on 5 October, 1922.*

Westerman – “About Leaving” (Audio)
‘A Jackal’s Wedding’
Partisan Records – Nov. 7, 2025
*Westerman – “About Leaving” https://play.cdnstream1.com/s/kcrw/today-s-top-tune/westerman-about-leaving // https://westerman.bandcamp.com/album/a-jackals-wedding // With “About Leaving,” Westerman offers a reflective yet forward-moving prelude to ‘A Jackal’s Wedding’. Penned on the move — scribbled in trains, planes, and unfamiliar cities — the lyrics mirror the impermanence of travel itself, infusing the album with a restless, dreamlike momentum. Recorded in a 17th century mansion, converted into an art space on the island of Hydra; the album reflects the chaos and limits of the space and uses it as a collaborator.*
