Our hearts are with the people of Ukraine. Please enjoy “Ščedryk”, a Ukrainian New Year’s carol by the Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovich, arranged by Philip Brunelle. This carol, traditionally sung on January 13, tells the story of a swallow flying into a house to sing of wealth that will come the following spring (you can hear the bird pecking in the opening measures). Later, Peter Wilhousky heard it and wrote English lyrics moving it from spring to Christmas, “Carol of the Bells.”
