  The choir has close links with the Greek-catholics (in Ukraine). For decades, the choir strived to keep Ukrainian (liturgical and worldly) culture alive. It did so whilst the Greek-catholic Church fought to survive its suppressors. It continues to do so, joining in the happiness of the Greek-catholics' freedom today.
  
  The choir was founded by Ukrainian born and raised musicologist Myroslaw Antonowycz (+2006). At present, the Utrecht Byzantine Choir is directed by Grigori Sergei Sarolea. Grigori was born and raised in a Slavic-byzantine church community in The Hague.
  
  You are listening to "S namy Boh" (God is with us). It is taken from the album: 'Een Oekraïens Kerstfeest' (Christmas in Ukraine).
  
  The UBK frequently performs concerts and sings during the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom both in the Netherlands and abroad.
