Mayboroda Academic Choir of the Ukrainian Radio and The Symphony Orchestra of the Ukrainian Radio.
Quotes from the British Media about our choir:
“... The concert was the most moving musical experience of my life... The 500-strong audience gave the Choir a five-minute standing ovation. “It was emotional dynamite“, - said Major Tyier, who said he had been moved to tears... The quality of the performance was outstanding. The soprano was superlative and the strength of the sound, particularly from the bass section of the Choir, was almost unbelievable.
(“Wilts And Gloucestershire Standard“. UK)
“Their programme of sacred a cappella chants breathed mystery, incense and the flicker of candles. Audiences were caught up in the poignant drama of a religion that had fought its way through tyranny and oppression” ...; in the second half (Ukrainian folk songs) “There is swagger, bravado, heroism, nostalgia and a sense of the limitless Ukrainian horizons one recalls from Eisenstein films.“
(Westmorland Gazette, UK)
“The Boyan Men's Choir displayed perfectly balanced chords, impeccable tuning, pure melodic lines, precission of attack and beautifully shaded dynamic changes. A superb performance.“
(Yorhshire Post, UK)
