Event Description

Bandurist Victor Mishalow has made a significant contribution to Ukrainian music in Canada, both through his performances and writings. He formed the original Canadian Bandurist Capella in 1991, and introduced many young people to this ancient Ukrainian instrument. Born in Sydney, Australia, Victor was the first person in that country to do his high school practical music performance exam on the bandura. Since then, Victor has made it his life’s passion and work. He graduated from Sydney University with a double major in Musicology and Ethno-Musicology, and did his postgraduate studies at the Kyiv Conservatory for master’s in music. Victor has performed in North America, Europe and Australia, and has played solo performances in Carnegie Hall, Massey Hall, and the Sydney Opera House. He completed several concert tours in Ukraine, with over 70 solo concert recitals.
