The Yale Slavic Chorus sings traditional music from Eastern Europe, the Balkans, and Georgia. Their repertoire is diverse, spanning village songs, holiday carols, work songs, liturgical music, lullabies, arranged versions of folk songs, and more. The Chorus is dedicated to maintaining musical excellence and sharing the power and beauty of these traditions. Founded in the first year of undergraduate coeducation at Yale College, they were the first women's group on campus and are now a gender-inclusive group.
Yi-Yi, a Ukrainian folk group composed of Caroline Kuhn, Katie Pawluk, and Zoya Shepko, breathes new life into traditional Ukrainian songs through unconventional arrangements and a diverse mix of instruments, including the bandura, violin, banjo, hutsul drum, cello and accordion. Their performances are characterized by three-part polyphony, creating rich sonic tapestries that transport audiences from lively party vibes to poignant moments of heartbreak.
