SENIORALIA: Performance by the Namysto Choir
We are Ukrainians who came to Łódź after the war started, as well as those who lived here before. We are united by our love for Ukraine and Ukrainian culture. We sing in the 'Namysto' choir because we are sure that song helps heal wounded hearts, win wars, unite nations and more. The choir was founded on the initiative of Natalia Nazarova and Iryna Stepas with the support of the 'Koper Pomaga' foundation of the Phoenix Ecological Association. Choirmaster of the ensemble Tetiana Lopuga.
