  • CHERES Hailed to Be “The Best Purveyor of Authentic Ukrainian Folk
    CHERES Hailed to be “the best purveyor of authentic Ukrainian folk music in the United States” by the former head of the Archive of Folk Culture at the Library of Congress, Cheres brings to life melodies from the Carpathian mountains in Western Ukraine and neighboring Eastern European countries. Since its founding in 1990 by students of the Kyiv State Conservatory in the Ukraine, the ensemble has enthralled North American audiences with their rousing renditions of folk music performed on the cymbalum, violin, woodwinds, accordion, bass, and percussion. Virtuoso musicians join spirited dancers, all donned in traditional Western Ukrainian hand-embroidered garments, to paint a vivid picture of Ukrainian folk art. The musicians, most of whom are from Halychyna in western Ukraine, are united by an artistic vision to preserve their traditions. “Cheres” is actually a little known Ukrainian term for a metal- studded leather belt formerly used as a bulletproof vest during the Middle Ages. Today, the group Cheres has adopted this Medieval protective shield as their name to symbolize the safeguarding of vanishing folk art traditions from the Carpathian mountains. This seasoned ensemble has performed in nightclubs and concerts in New York City; music festivals in the Tri-State area, including Lincoln Center’s Out of Doors Festival in 2006 and Folk Parks in 2000, as well as colleges and universities on the east coast. Cheres has appeared on television on NBC’s Weekend Today show, as well as the Food Network’s Surprise! show. Tracks from their latest CD, Cheres: From the Mountains to the Steppe” have been played on WNYC’s New Sounds program, as well as other stations in the region.

  • A Turbulent Year for Ukraine Urbulent Was the Way to Describe 2009 for Ukraine, Which Plunged Into Financial Crisis
    No. 3 THE UKRAINIAN WEEKLY SUNDAY, JANUARY 17, 2010 5 2009: THE YEAR IN REVIEW A turbulent year for Ukraine urbulent was the way to describe 2009 for Ukraine, which plunged into financial crisis. No other European country suffered as much as TUkraine, whose currency was devalued by more than 60 percent since its peak of 4.95 hrv per $1 in August 2008. In addition, the country’s industrial production fell by 31 percent in 2009. Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko con- fronted the challenge of minimizing the crisis fallout, while at the same time campaigning for the 2010 presi- dential elections. Her critics attacked her for pursuing populist policies, such as increasing wages and hiring more government staff, when the state treasury was broke as early as the spring. Ms. Tymoshenko herself admitted that her gov- ernment would not have been able to make all its pay- ments without the help of three tranches of loans, worth approximately $10.6 billion, provided by the International Monetary Fund. Her critics believe that instead of borrowing money, Ms. Tymoshenko should have been introducing radical reforms to the Ukrainian economy, reducing government waste, eliminating out- dated Soviet-era benefits and trimming the bureaucracy. The year began with what is becoming an annual tra- Offi cial Website of Ukraine’s President dition in Ukraine – a natural gas conflict provoked by the government of Russian Federation Prime Minister President Viktor Yushchenko and Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko at the heated February 10 meeting of Vladimir Putin.

During this period the style underwent some transformation and innovation that shed light onto the history of the bandura and demonstrates the process of transformation that ethnic musical culture undergoes when isolated. It also demonstrates the process of innovation. The aim of the study is to focus on bandura tradition, transformations and innovations in the performance practice of bandurists in the Ukrainian Diaspora living in Australia; to observe those aspects of the tradition that were retained, and those performance practices that changed, 163 and the differentiation of this phenomena in comparison to its original counterpart in Ukraine. The methodology of the study is grounded in historic, systemic, sociological and cultural approach and related methods of scientific study, in particular, a historic-chronological analysis of bandura playing techniques in Ukraine, in particular, the method of systematic classification and complex analysis that performance practice that has taken place in Ukrainian culture.
