“Qirim” is the new musical project by Raphael Roginski – a journey into sound, memory, and spirituality. It is a meditative treatise on the culture of the Crimean Tatars and, more broadly, on the entire lost world of Crimea. Roginski, a guitarist and ethnomusicologist, combines his years of research into Eastern music with a deeply personal, autobiographical thread. “Qirim” is both a musical voyage and a travel diary – a record of an inner journey in pursuit of sound, toward a world that has long served as a kind of compass for the artist. His frequent travels to Ukraine have been an endless source of inspiration – both artistic and human.
