「ジョージア人口統計学協会の創造団体『オルビ』の慈善委員会に属する、子ども合唱団『アイ・イア』」という長い正式名称の合唱団だそう。本作はライブ作品で全てグルジア語で歌われる非常に貴重な録音となっている。
АукционというAuctionという曲は、プログレロック〜ディスコ調の作品で鬼気迫るめちゃくちゃかっこいいトラックに合唱団のボーカルが乗る面白い曲。
A truly obscure release recorded in 1990, when present-day Georgia was still known as the Democratic Republic of Georgia, and released the following year—now under the newly independent nation. The record was pressed in the former Soviet Union.
The full name of the ensemble is quite a mouthful: the children's choir "Ai Ia" of the charitable committee of the creative association "Orbi" under the Demographic Society of Georgia. This is a live recording, and all songs are performed in Georgian, making it a rare and valuable document.
The standout track, Аукцион ("Auction"), is a wild and intense blend of progressive rock and disco influences, with the choir’s vocals soaring over a powerful and dramatic instrumental. An unexpectedly striking piece.
