Singers from the Ukrainian Village Voices ensemble enchanted a large crowd at Emmanuel Episcopal Church on Sunday. They performed a dozen songs, ranging from seasonal tunes to lyrical pieces, many originating from rural Ukraine and centuries old. This performance marked the latest event in the popular Sunday Soundscapes series, organized by Friends of the Weston Library.
This engaging performance also signaled the conclusion of the series’ second season. The upcoming third season is set to launch in September, featuring the acclaimed chamber ensemble Canta Libre.
Adding to the excitement, violinist Jason Yanick and his jazz combo are slated to return in November by popular demand. They previously captivated audiences two years ago.
