Born and raised in Ukrainia dr. Myroslaw Antonowycz conducted the worship services in Culemborg for the reestablished Ukrainian seminar. After the seminarians were graduated, they swarmed out to fulfill their priestly vocation for the Ukrainians all over the world. The now outside the monastery walls well-known seminarian choir fell apart while applications for the singing of liturgies and concerts throughout the Netherlands, kept coming.
On the initiative of Msgr. AG Smith, dr. Antonowycz founded the Utrecht Byzantine Choir on February 9, 1951, consisting of only Dutch men, who specialized in singing the liturgy according to the Slavic-Byzantine rite.
In cooperation with the Apostolate of the Eastern Churches, the UBK initially only sang liturgies according to the Byzantine Rite. Hundreds of parishes in the Netherlands became familiar with ... less

As One was written to mark the centenary of World War I. The song is written for a SATB choir and is sung a cappella. It is a contemplative piece which explores themes of togetherness in adversity and the call for peace. Its opening phrase mimics that of the Last Post and it is intended to be sung as part of an act of remembrance.
Lyrics:
As one they stood alone
As one they gazed into the unknown
Laid bare in rains of steel
Deep veins of mire to call their home
Bade forth with flags of praise
Thenceforth as one to end their days
From distant shores
Their souls cry out for us to remember
As blood bore fertile earth
One soaring call was brought to birth
A seed awakening
A proclamation now to serve
As one their voices come
As one they call the Earth to arms
Their anthem strong
A song imploring us to remember
Remember, we shall remember
As darkness plundered then
So darkness wounds the Earth again
