Postponed
Jointly the Ukrainian Art Song Project and St. Volodymyr Ukrainian Orthodox Cathedral feel it is in the best interest of all to postpone the performance A Musical Offering scheduled for March 22 until further notice. At this time the first priority must be the health, safety and wellbeing of the parishioners and guests attending the performance. It is important to note that health officials for Toronto, Ontario and Canada continue to advise that the risk of contracting COVID-19 remains low and we all must do our part to keep it that way.
The Ukrainian Art Song Project is grateful to St.Volodymyr Ukrainian Orthodox Cathedral for their continued support of emerging young artists and will reschedule this performance at a later date. Should you have any questions, call 416-603-3224. Thank you for your understanding.

For our third Ukrainian Art Song Summer Institute, the Ukrainian Art Song Project presented “Muse.” A poet, having lost his inspiration, retraces the paths of his life, striving to reawaken in himself the passion that once allowed him to create great works of art. He sets off on an arduous journey of discovery to experience as many moments of life as possible – some most enjoyable, some quite horrific. Whether or not he succeeds in reclaiming his muse is a question answered by the audience who enjoyed the poems of Oleksandr Oles which, together with Myroslav Volynsky’s “Wagnerian” music and the compositions of Mykola Lysenko, Yakiv Stepovyi and Marko Kropyvnytskyi, which offered a depth of emotions that revealed a stark truth.
This final recital was held August 2019, at the Temerty Theatre at the Royal Conservatory's TELUS Centre For Performance and Learning, Toronto, Canada.
