You may not recognize the name of this song but you know the tune. It was written by the Ukranian composer Mykola Leontovych in 1914 and is based on a Ukranian folk chant. This is my own jazz arrangement of the tune, performed at the Columbia Center for the Arts in Hood River, Oregon. I’ve included some of Tim Ortlieb’s video footage of the Center’s 2020 Holiday Show too (so neither of us has to sit and watch me play for the whole video).
