Ensemble Murmurosi - Chants polyphoniques d’hiver

The Murmurosi ensemble’s performance, “Chants polyphoniques d’hiver,” explores Ukrainian vocal traditions through an a cappella program of koliadky and schedrivky, songs associated with Christmas and New Year celebrations. Drawing mainly from the traditions of the Kyiv and Poltava regions, the trio brings melodies passed down through generations to life. Meditative and festive in turn, these songs evoke the hopes, blessings and rituals of winter in Ukrainian villages, revealing a living heritage shaped by oral tradition, memory and community.
