Late Winter Carol: Tomás Kočko & Orchestr with "Kračún"

I know, I know, it's a little past Christmas for a carol, but it's still technically the Christmas season. Today's random tune is called Kračún and it is by Tomás Kočko & Orchestr. Tomás Kočko is a Czech singer, songwriter, composer and arranger and also a researcher into the art, history, culture and religion of Moravia and the Slavs. His orchestra combines elements of rock, folk and jazz with traditional music and has won awards for their work. The instrumentation is modern acoustic stringed and woodwind along with percussion and traditional folk instruments. You can find Kračún on their 2011 CD Koleda/The Carol.
