Posted: April 20, 2000 in New Haven. From 4 to 4:30 p.m., a Ukrainian-American author, Irena Zabytko will be signing copies of her newly released novel, "The Sky Unwashed". The novel has received excellent reviews from Library Journal & Kirkus Reviews & Publishers' Weekly. This is a unique opportunity to support a mainstream writer who paints a sympathetic picture of Ukraine for a mainstream, American audience. ALSO, Yale Bookstore has taken a risk in promoting this book during Reading Week. Ms. Zabytko has been nominated for Barnes & Noble's "Discover Great New Writers Series", and this is a great honor for a Ukrainian writer in whom all of us should rejoice. Alex Kuzma

The Ukrainian language students are organizing a play Pippi Longstocking (Peppi Dovha Panchokha) skit for the yearly departmental slam. Our co-president, Adrian, has agreed to be none other than Pippi. (That's real security with masculinity.) There will be cameo appearances of Taras Shevchenko, Taras Bulba, Lesia Ukrainka. Maybe Ivan Vysens'kyj. Singing. Horilka (stage horilka). Dancing. A Horse. If you want to get involved, there will be mandatory rehearsals. We won Grand Prize last year, so Ukrainian has to get it again. Please email judy.an@yale.edu if you want to get involved. Posted March 21, 2000 by Judy
St. Michael’s Church Hall, 563 George street, new Haven, CT Kotlyarevsky's Eneyida Studio "Arabesques" from Kharkiv, Ukraine Prof. Halyna Hryn is offering to drive anyone that would like to go out to the Eneyida performance. Eneyida is one of the most outstanding and most original products of the current Ukrainian literature. It is a mock heroic poem based on the famous "Aeneyid" by the Roman poet Vergilius. But here Trojans become Kozaks, "Aeneas" is Enei, while Greek gods from Mt. Olympus appear as Ukrainian gentry. Posted: March 18, 2000

The Experimental Bandura Trio (Julian Kytasty, Michael Andrec, and Jurij Fedynsky) would like to invite you to one of the three upcoming performances this month associated with the release of their debut CD. The concert is co-sponsored by the New Haven Chapter of the Children of Chornobyl Relief Fund and the Yale-Ukraine Initiative. General Admission is $10. Yale students free with ID.
For the past several years they have been working to create a new musical language for their instrument which combines contemporary influences from minimalism to free improvisation with rhythms, textures, and modes drawn from ancient epic songs. Their repertoire consists almost exclusively of original compositions and improvisational pieces that develop bandura ensemble sound in radically new directions. The Experimental Bandura Trio will be also performing at the following locations this month: Toronto, ON
New York, NY
