Here it is played on the bandura, Ukraine’s national instrument. This song gained worldwide popularity in 1920 after the Ukrainian National Chorus (under the direction of composer Oleksander Koshets) sang this in Carnegie Hall, where Peter Willhousky heard it and published it with the english text. BTW - the English text is not a translation of the original Ukrainian. #Звучання_Душі #СпівочаНАЦІЯ
