The new site features larger text, new graphics, many more sample audio tracks, including some full tracts in addition to excerpts, at least one new video (please enjoy Prayer for Ukraine at the bottom of the front page), and is easier for us to update.

A new section has been added, titled Tours.  Here you'll find detailed information about all of Evangelion Chorale's tours to Ukraine including chorale members (with photos and bios, where available), the repertoire, and the itinerary.  Information for 2009 and 2012 is fairly complete and displayed as we'd like it.  Information for prior years is believed accurate but may not look as good as we'd like.  We'll continue working in this area.

The new site has facilities for photo galleries.  If you're a chorale member that has photos you think would make a good gallery, please contact the webmaster through the Contact Us page.

Thanks for visiting and please let us know what you think about our new website by using our Contact page.

Evangelion Chorale Mission Statement

He was a newly converted Ukrainian jazz musician and I an American Christian choral conductor. It was 1994, only three years after the liberation of the Soviet Republic of Ukraine, and I was there to disciple Slava at the invitation of mutual friends, Linda and Paul Wicklund, founders of The Shepherd's Foundation.

Slava's face reflected the character of the Ukrainian church community - steeled by hardship, yet shining with extraordinary spiritual vitality. From that visit on, I felt compelled to return to Ukraine to build musical bridges with a culture recovering from 70 years of Communist oppression. Evangelion Chorale is the result of that commitment.

Why is this mission so vital?
