This Christmas we bring you the story of the most popular Christmas song of all time – Shchedrik or as the world knows it, Carol of the bells. The Ukrainian song that conquered the world was composed by the legendary composer Mykola Leontovich, and for Ukrainians it is not just an ordinary song, but also a struggle for freedom, language and identity. It was first performed in the distant 1916, and just three years later it conquered the European and American continents, to today become the song that warms hearts all over the world during the Christmas holidays.
Take a look at the story of the song with a very rich history, which for Ukrainians has become a symbol of the struggle for freedom.
