Product Description

Shchedryk is not just a song.
For Ukraine, it is a symbol, a voice of culture, and proof that the whole world hears us.

Shchedryk is a Ukrainian skhedrivka, the roots of which go back to ancient times, to pre-Christian times. It is a song about prosperity, hope, revival, and the light that comes to the house with the New Year.

Mykola Leontovych turned a folk melody into a masterpiece an elegant choral arrangement that became the musical DNA of Ukraine.

It was Shchedryk that opened the world to Ukraine:
in 19191920, the Ukrainian Republican Chapel under the direction of Oleksandr Koshits performed it throughout Europe and the USA;
after a performance at Carnegie Hall, the melody conquered America;
later it became known as Carol of the Bells, but its roots are Ukrainian.

For Ukrainians, "Shchedryk" is:
a memory of our culture;
musical proof of our identity;
a song that has survived bans, wars and attempts at appropriation;
a quiet but very strong act of cultural resistance.

When "Shchedryk" sounds, the world hears Ukraine.
Even when they tried to silence us.
