The Schoharie Valley Singers are honored to partner with the Schoharie Reformed Church for a concert benefiting Ukrainian refugees in Poland. The concert will be presented on Saturday, June 4th at 7:30pm and will take place at the Schoharie Reformed Church in Schoharie. The concert is free for the public, but a donation is encouraged. All proceeds from the concert will be donated to Schoharie Reformed Church’s sister church in Lodz, Poland, assisting with the influx of refugees.
The concert will feature six choral selections, plus three singalong songs for the audience to join in on. The selections include a new piece by John Rutter, “A Ukrainian Prayer.” This selection was written in the last few months by the world-renowned British composer, and has been made available free to any choir that wishes to perform it. The concert will also feature a collection of other uplifting choral music, including “Make Them Hear You,” “Sisi Ni Moja,” and “Let There Be Peace on Earth.”
The National Anthem of Ukraine will be sung for the audience by the Veryovka Ukrainian Folk Choir under the direction of Anatoliy Tymofiyovych Avdievsky.
During the program we will hear from members of the Schoharie Reformed Church as well as the Rev. Semko Koroza, pastor of the Evangelical Reformed Church of Poland and his congregation in Lodz concerning the current status of those needing assistance in Poland.
