About

The Korinnya Ukrainian Folk Choir, which has been performing since 1994, is composed of members of Calgary’s Ukrainian Community. This is our first recording, a snapshot of our coffee hour concern performed in 1999 at Calgary’s Ukrainian churches. This year also marked the addition of the Korinnya Folk Orchestra. We hope you enjoy our choir’s performance, A Photograph of where we are at this point in time.
