Hoosli Ukrainian Male Chorus was founded in Winnipeg in the fall of 1969, to encourage, promote, and preserve Ukrainian heritage as part of the mosaic that makes up Canada's rich cultural tapestry. Hoosli's main objectives today are to contribute to the development of Canadian culture by promoting and preserving Ukrainian cultural traditions; to educate the public about the origins of Ukrainian performing arts; and to encourage and enhance understanding and appreciation of Ukrainian-Canadian cultural traditions. Over 170 men have poured their hearts and souls into Hoosli, and have helped pass on the fire and spirit of the Kozaky to this day. Hoosli has performed all over North America, recorded eight albums, and continually strives to inspire audiences with the majestic sound of four-part male harmony. Hoosli proudly shows its dedication to the Ukrainian heritage through its repertoire of liturgical music and folk songs, as well as the patriotic songs of Ukraine and the Kozaky.
Molodtsi! I wasn't sure about the accompaniment at first, but it works powerfully. The invasion of Ukraine has electrified us all in our resistance and resolve, and this anthem is a perfect symbol. Well done, Hoosli. Слава Україні!
Христос Народився! I was looking for some Ukrainian Christmas carols tonight and was pleasantly surprised to find this lovely collection. I was born in Roblin MB and know that Hoosli were originally St. Vlad's grads. This makes this extra special for me! Сердечно дякую!! Слава Україні!! ❤🇨🇦💙💛🇺🇦
