New EP Anima Mundi Unveiled

According to Novyny.live: Ukrainian vocalist Leleka has teamed up with Italian composer Stefano Lentini to release a three-track EP titled Anima Mundi, which is set to be showcased at Eurovision 2026. This collaboration brings together artists from different countries, promising fresh and innovative musical ideas. The EP is already generating buzz for its potential to bridge Ukrainian and Italian cultural scenes.

Tracks on the EP

The Anima Mundi EP features three songs:

• Forget It
• The River

Notably, the track First Steps has already been featured in the sixth season of the popular television series Mare Fuori, highlighting its quality and relevance. Vocal recordings for the EP took place in Berlin and Rome, underscoring the international scope of this partnership.

Stefano Lentini, who composed, produced, and wrote the music for this EP, is also recognized for his work on the film 'The Turtle's Nest', which received several awards at Ukraine's National Film Award 'Golden Dziga'.

Leleka described Anima Mundi as 'an honest, intimate, and slightly melancholic piece of work'.

The importance of this project lies in its ability to highlight the creative potential of Ukrainian artists while fostering cultural exchange between Ukraine and Italy. Participation in Eurovision 2026 could serve as a powerful catalyst for promoting not just the EP but Ukrainian music as a whole, which holds great significance amid the country's current challenges.
