Olyphant choir to perform in NYC

NEW YORK - The Choir of Ss. Cyril and Methodius of Olyphant, Pa., under the direction of Patrick Marcinko II, will sing liturgical responses in Old Church Slavonic along with traditional Ukrainian Easter anthems at St. George Ukrainian Catholic Church on East Seventh Street St., Sunday, May 16, during the 10 a.m. liturgy.

Visitors to St. George Ukrainian Catholic Church's Ukrainian Festival, which will be held the weekend of May 14-16 on Seventh Street, between Second and Third avenues, may wish to take advantage of the opportunity to hear a live choir sing a Catholic liturgy in the original language of the compositions and enjoy the essence of the Old World this Easter season.

Later, at 1 p.m., the Ekumen Chorale, a unique specialized choir, also under the direction of Mr. Marcinko, will perform a concert of Sacred Eastern Church Music masterworks from Ukraine, Belarus, Bulgaria and Russia.
