Performance

Join us as we host Lost Horse Press publisher Christine Lysnewycz Holbert for readings from the Contemporary Ukrainian Poetry Series.
Founded in 2017, by editor Grace Mahoney and Christine Lynsnewycz Holbert (founder of Spokane’s Get Lit! Literary Arts Festival), the series publishes works by both established and new Ukrainian poets in a dual-language format, bringing their voices to an English-speaking world.

Under the baton of Drs. Dean Luethi (WSU Director of Choral Activities) and Matthew Myers (Artistic Director of the Palouse Choral Society and WSU Associate Director of Choral Activities), the combined choirs and orchestra will perform Franz Joseph Haydn’s Mass for Troubled Times (also known as the Lord Nelson Mass) as well as Haydn’s Te Deum. Featured soloists include Alisa Toy (soprano), UofI faculty Michelle Lange (mezzo-soprano), and WSU faculty Matthew Myers (tenor), and Aaron Agulay (baritone).
