They're singing in Russian in San Francisco! How did this happen? Slavyanka Chorus
Friends, the Slavyanka Chorus was founded by alumni of the Yale Russian Chorus in 1979 in San Francisco. Today the president of the Chorus is its co-founder, Paul Andrews (an alumnus of the YRC), and the conductor and artistic director is Irina Shachneva. The Slavyanka Chorus has a rich concert and touring practice, and a very interesting history, which can be found on their website: https://www.slavyankachorus.org/

Friends, welcome to our channel!
The Yale Russian Chorus is the oldest singing group in the New World dedicated to the music of Russia and nearby countries. The YRC was founded 1953 at the height of the Cold War. Founders: Denis Mickiewicz and George Litton.
Singers join while students at Yale, and many stay active throughout their lives. Every year or so we hold a major concert in which students and alumni sing together. Many alumni also join the students on tours to Russia.
The singers are not Russians, or emigrants from Russia, but are students and former students who share a passion for the music and a belief in the power of music to build connections between people of different countries.
Thanks to YouTube, we are pleased to share these recordings with online audiences around the world who share our passion for this music.

We have toured Russia and Eastern Europe many times, and we really hope that we will be able to hit the road again when the time comes 🌿
