The Ukrainian Art Song Project is extremely grateful to the Ukraine Millennium Foundation (UMF) of Edmonton, Alberta for funding the Online World Library of Ukrainian Art Songs.  

This World Library gives anyone with access to the internet the ability to download the scores of over 300 art songs for free. They can be transposed to any key. Every score includes the Cyrillic text with the transliteration below each word and an English translation. There is also a Pronunciation Chart to assist with diction. These art songs have no copyright and may be performed publicly.

Ukrainian art songs, composed primarily in the 19th and 20th centuries, are artistic masterpieces largely unknown throughout the world, as they were suppressed within Ukraine due to repressive foreign domination. The UMF believes that these classical music compositions deserve to be recognized and showcased on international stages and is pro-actively facilitating this goal by supporting the library.

With the support of the UMF, the Ukrainian Art Song Project is proud to provide this educational and cultural effort which will be a valuable tool for music students, emerging artists, professional singers, teachers and performers, as well as a source of pride to those of Ukrainian origin in Canada and throughout the world.
