Canadian Bandurist Capella

Read Profile

The Canadian Bandurist Capella is one of the premiere bandura ensembles in North America. The group showcases powerful male voices combined with the rich sound of the bandura - the national instrument of Ukraine. The Capella is committed to advancing and exploring new possibilities with choral-bandura music, while honouring the instrument’s deep history.

Founded in 2001, the Canadian Bandurist Capella has grown to become a considerable force within the Ukrainian Community in Ontario. The group unites the talents of some 40 volunteer singers and instrumentalists who work together to further their common mission. As a not-for-profit group, the Capella depends on the support of the community and generous individuals to continue its work.
