  • Chapter IX: Ukrainian Musical Folklore Discography As a Preserving Factor
    Art Spiritual Dimensions of Ukrainian Diaspora: Collective Scientific Monograph DOI 10.36074/art-sdoud.2020.chapter-9 Nataliia Fedorniak UKRAINIAN MUSICAL FOLKLORE DISCOGRAPHY AS A PRESERVING FACTOR IN UKRAINIAN DIASPORA NATIONAL SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE ABSTRACT: The presented material studies one of the important forms of transmission of the musical folklore tradition of Ukrainians in the United States and Canada during the XX – the beginning of the XXI centuries – sound recording, which is a component of the national spiritual experience of emigrants. Founded in the 1920s, the recording industry has been actively developed and has become a form of preservation and promotion of the traditional musical culture of Ukrainians in North America. Sound recordings created an opportunity to determine the features of its main genres, the evolution of forms, that are typical for each historical period of Ukrainians’ sedimentation on the American continent, as well as to understand the specifics of the repertoire, instruments and styles of performance. Leading record companies in the United States have recorded authentic Ukrainian folklore reconstructed on their territory by rural musicians and choirs. Arranged folklore material is represented by choral and bandura recordings, to which are added a large number of records, cassettes, CDs of vocal-instrumental pop groups and soloists, where significantly and stylistically diversely recorded secondary Ukrainian folklore (folklorism). INTRODUCTION. The social and political situation in Ukraine (starting from the XIX century) caused four emigration waves of Ukrainians and led to the emergence of a new cultural phenomenon – the art and folklore of Ukrainian emigration, i.e. diaspora culture. Having found themselves in difficult ambiguous conditions, where there was no favorable living environment, Ukrainian musical folklore began to lose its original identity and underwent assimilation processes.

    JUNE 2 - 3, 2018 CALGARY UKRAINIAN FESTIVAL programme guide CALGARYUKRAINIANFESTIVAL.CA CALGARY UKRAINIAN FESTIVAL 2018! On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Calgary Ukrainian Festival Foundation I would like to welcome you to the NINTH Annual Calgary Ukrainian Festival! Only one year away from a full decade of Festival activities! The momentum continues this year with an entirely new stage show format with even more performers than last. Have a look around at our collection of Ukrainian vendors from across the country. They bring everything from the latest Ukrainian European fashion trends to collectible “hard to find” Ukrainian artistry. Keep looking around the pavilion and take note of our new bar modeled after an 18th century Ukrainian house with thatch roofing. Imagine what it was like to raise a family in such a simple structure! Sitting at “Baba’s” kitchen table is a treat like nothing else. Enjoying the simplicity and tasteful helpings of traditional hand-made perogies and cabbage rolls. Nothing “store bought” on our Festival food plates. Finally, our Festival After-Hours event returns Saturday evening at 9:00pm. Open to all. Our performers will be out of their stage costumes and back into street clothes. Come spend the evening with those you saw on stage and meet a new friend. This year our live Ukrainian Zabava Band from Edmonton, Steppe, will play everything from the fastest polkas, to the coziest waltz. But don’t leave before 10:30pm because around that time you will witness the infamous Canadian Ukrainian tradition of the “Kolomyka”. The chance for ALL to display the best they have in Ukrainian dance solos.
