Since 1998 “Kapela Drewutnia” has been playing songs inspired by traditional music of the pre-war Poland, and especially by music of the territories where various cultures and traditions existed side by side and mingled with each other. Therefore in the repertoire of the group there are both Lemkish and Ukrainian tunes as well as songs from the Lublin region, Silesia or the southern Poland.

The musicians come from various regions of Poland, but they have been brought together by common musical fascinations and the unique atmosphere of Lublin – the city that has become the home of the group. The goal of ”Kapela Drewutnia” is to familiarise the contemporary listener with old folk songs in the original interpretations of the band. The group seeks to faithfully preserve lyrics and melodies of songs and to convey fully their mood – using available instruments and polyphonic singing.

“Kapela Drewutnia” plays concerts all over Poland as well as abroad (Belgium, Latvia, Slovakia, Ukraine), performing at festivals, outdoor events, folk dance parties, banquets and other occasions. The band has received many awards at festivals and competitions.

So far “Kapela Drewutnia” has issued four albums with Slavonic folk music: “Hetaj-Hetaj” (1998), “Hojaja Szuhaja” (1999), “i uod sie i do sie” (2001) and “Hej, wista” (2004), and a CD “Dzwieki ze stajenki” (2002) with little known Polish carols many of which the group has in its repertoire.
