Ukrainian-American conductor, Dr. Marika Kuzma, has had a full and varied career as conductor, educator, and scholar. As Professor Emerita of Music at UC Berkeley, she brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to help our church conductors hone their technique. As a specialist in Ukrainian music, particularly the works of Dmitri Bortniansky, she has a profound understanding of some of the most beautiful repertoire of our Church.
