'LIBELID' 🎶 is a cycle of love songs in Yiddish arranged by Ola Bilińska 🎤, accompanied by a group of renowned musicians from Gdańsk and Warsaw 🎻🎸. It is a continuation of the album 'Berjozkele – lullabies and evening songs in Yiddish' 🌙🎵. The album expands on the theme of modern adaptations of Jewish music in Yiddish 🎧, which was initiated on the 'Berjozkele' album.
The premiere of the material took place at the New Jewish Music Festival at the POLIN Museum. The concert was recorded by the Second Program of Polish Radio, and the album 'LIBELID – love songs in Yiddish' was recorded in the Polish Radio studio and released by the Jewish Historical Institute. The LIBELID project has been presented on musical stages and festivals in Poland, Europe, and the USA.

The idea of the 'Wielogłosy' cycle is to present projects where the voice plays a key role. We invite bands that refer to various musical traditions of our country: Polish, Jewish, Old Russian, Ukrainian, Lithuanian, Serbian, or Yugoslav. We reach for musical sources – rural, church, and Renaissance. Within the cycle, both premiere concerts and those that have already had the opportunity to exist but are not easily heard today in Warsaw will be presented. The curator of the cycle is Maniucha Bikont.
