A tango-influenced setting of a hundred year-old poem by Trumbull Stickney, "Mnemosyne" is the title track of the debut CD recorded by Ljova and the Kontraband. "Mnemosyne" is the Greek name for the Goddess of memory. This song features the Kontraband's vocalist, Inna Barmash, and a special guest, Frank London, on trumpet.

For more on Ljova and the Kontraband, visit www.Ljova.com MNEMOSYNE Trumbull Stickney (1874-1904) Its autumn in the country I remember. How warm a wind blew here about the ways! And shadows on the hillside lay to slumber During the long sun-sweetened summer-days. Its cold abroad the country I remember. The swallows veering skimmed the golden grain At midday with a wing aslant and limber; And yellow cattle browsed upon the plain. Its empty down the country I remember. I had a sister lovely in my sight Her hair was dark, her eyes were very sombre; We sang together in the woods at night. Its lonely in the country I remember.

There are the mountains where I lived. The path Is slushed with cattle-tracks and fallen timber, The stumps are twisted by the tempests wrath. But that I knew these places are my own, I d ask how came such wretchedness to cumber The earth, and I to people it alone. It rains <b>...</b>
