Summary/Abstract: Przemysl, nicknamed the “West bastion of Ukraine”, has always been a famous centre of Ukrainian culture. The key role in the cultural life in the city played music. There is much evidence supporting this view, e.g. the 1241 Galicia-Volhynia Chronicle mentions about a „famous singer Mytusa” [2] the existence of old irmologions [20], or the so-called „Przemysl period” which was represented in the Ukrainian music history by people such as Mykhailo Verbytsky or Ivan Lavrivsky. Additionally, the interwar period was marked with brilliant activity of the branch of the Mykola Lysenko [2] Higher Musical Institute of Lviv, or other social and cultural associations.
