Driven by passion, tradition, and history, the all-male Ukrainian Bandurist Chorus preserves and exemplifies its mission as ambassadors of Ukrainian culture, music and the unique 60 stringed instrument, the bandura. Formed in 1918, the UBC continues to make history with ongoing international concerts, a continued education program for youth, new recordings, and new talent. Intense passion for music by our members is united behind the common goal to extend the tradition of our predecessors, kobzari, by producing memorable performances on the world stage.
