Slavyanka
is the label early 19th century Russian maps gave to what Californians
now call the Russian River. The Slavyanka Men’s Slavic Chorus was formed 1979 by alumni of the Yale Russian Chorus and other Bay Area singers interested in the choral traditions of Russia and Eastern Europe.
Slavyanka has made four musical tours to the Soviet Union, Russia, and Eastern Europe. We were the first American group ever invited to sing at Russia’s historic M. I. Glinka Kapella Hall, where we received a standing ovation from over 900 Russian choral directors.
Slavyanka has also been featured on Russian national radio and television, honored by the American Choral Directors Association, released six recordings, and has performed on the sound tracks for three major movies.
