Old songs from the territory of modern Ukraine tell stories about plants like the birch tree–bereza in Ukrainian, beryoze in Yiddish–that bend, break, and heal, becoming metaphors for human fragility and tenacity. Birds mark the turning of seasons and shifts in our internal weather as well. Since 2011, Zozulka–a trio named after the Ukrainian word for cuckoo bird–has interpreted songs from a wide range of Ukrainian village traditions. With BEREZA \/ BERYOZE, the trio branches into a new cycle of songs that speak directly to ecological themes. In this project, Zozulka reaches into Yiddish song repertoires from Ukraine, matching and contrasting the Jewish and Ukrainian song traditions that coexisted and drew upon grounded ecological knowledge. This song cycle reimagines old songs by rooting them in new sonic and cultural landscapes. Through expansive and bold arrangements, the works in BEREZA \/ BERYOZE illuminate how folk wisdom can deepen our awareness of the interdependence between human and more-than-human worlds. In an era marked by global climate change and devastating acts of ecocide in wartorn Ukraine and beyond, BEREZA \/ BERYOZE celebrates variegated and interlinked song traditions and the cathartic, regenerative power of singing old songs in the present. Trio Zozulka is Eva Salina, Willa Roberts, and Maria Sonevytsky\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eALL RESERVATIONS ARE WILL-CALL.  \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eNo tickets will be mailed to you.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e Cancellations must be made 48 hours in advance of the performance to qualify for a refund.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ci\u003ePlease address concert queries to  \u003ca href=\"mailto:events@mjt.org?subject=Re:%20PTrio%20Zozulka%20at%202023%20The%20Museum%20of%20Jurassic%20Technology\"\u003eevents@mjt.org\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eThis concert is made possible in part by grants from the City of Los Angeles, Department of Cultural Affairs and the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors through the Los Angeles County Arts Commission.\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cimg height=\"86\" width=\"86\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0099\/2822\/files\/LACAC_Logo_large.jpg?15112840447415975176\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cem\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Special Events","offers":[{"title":"9:30 pm \/ Yes","offer_id":48236426887339,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"9:30 pm \/ No","offer_id":48236426920107,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"7:30 pm \/ Yes","offer_id":48236426952875,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"7:30 pm \/ No","offer_id":48236426985643,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0099\/2822\/files\/TrioZozullka.jpg?v=1791868021","url":"https:\/\/www.mjtgiftshop.org\/products\/october-18th-2026","provider":"Museum of Jurassic Technology Gift Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
