  1. Hello,
    I am trying to locate a Ukrainian song book compiled by Ann Jafelice Sokach and Mary Wozney Eurke entitled “наші пісні” or Our Songs. I cannot find contact information for either person or the book online. I do however, know that Oksana Pishush has sung with Ann Jafelice Sokach as per this link:

    Do you happen to know how I could connect with either person or locate the book?
    Thank you,
    Michael Sokyrka
