Orkestar Bez Ime – “A v Kutsivtsi tserkvu budujut'” (Ukrainian), Live at Cedar Cultural Center

Orkestar Bez Ime (OBI) and percussionist Peter O’Gorman perform a Ukrainian Christmas carol that has pagan roots: A church in Kutsivtsi has three doors, three windows, and three roofs. The sun and moon come out as angels fly in and shed tears that create the Danube where Jesus bathes.

From “Kolyada: Winter Songs from the Black Sea,” a collaborative holiday concert with OBI, Peter O’Gorman, Mila Vocal Ensemble, and Nomadi at the Cedar Cultural Center in Minneapolis, MN.
