Paris to Kyiv to perform at Montreal showcase


MONTREAL - Since 1982, Canadian singer Alexis Kochan has been rediscovering and reinterpreting ancient Ukrainian music. Ms. Kochan and her ensemble Paris to Kyiv will return to Montreal for a short yet very important performance at the CINARS Platform on November 18.

This International Exchange for the Performing Arts is one of the leading showcase events in the world, with 1,000 professionals and 150 performances representing 60 countries spread out over five days of workshops and conferences in Montreal.

Paris to Kyiv has played in numerous theatres and arts centers across Canada and the United States, as well as in Europe. In Montreal the group will be performing music from earlier acclaimed recordings, as well as material from a much-anticipated new recording, scheduled for worldwide release in early 2005.

Paris to Kyiv will perform at 10 p.m. on Thursday, November 18, at Le Nouveau Club Soda, 1225 St. Laurent, Montreal.

The performance has received support from the Canada Council for the Arts, Manitoba Film and Sound, and the Manitoba Audio Recording Industry Association.
