Ukrainian & Lithuanian Summer Solstice Song Workshop

Past event
Jun 19, 2022, 2 to 4:30 PM

Come and learn beautiful traditional summer solstice songs with Bozena Hrycyna, Pavi Mehta, and Maria Schumann.

In Slavic and Baltic folk culture, summer solstice is a huge event celebrated with bonfires, flower wreath weaving, dancing and singing. In this workshop, you will learn Ukrainian 'Kupalo' songs celebrating love and summer and Ivan Kupala -- Ivan the Bather, the spirit of summer solstice, as well as Lithuanian 'Sutartines', an ancient form of trance-inducing round singing.

At Cate Hill Orchard, 697 Shadow Lake Rd. in Greensboro, suggested donation $30. The workshop will be held outside.
