With its unique repertoire of religious and secular music from Russia and neighboring lands, the Chorus quickly established a prominent place in the pantheon of Yale singing groups.
It thrives to this day, transcending dramatic changes in the political climate.
Throughout its 60-year history, the Chorus has fostered international understanding.
It pioneered the first person-to-person cultural exchanges, singing informal concerts on Moscow street corners in 1958.
The Chorus has won prizes at international choral competitions, serenaded government leaders at international functions and recorded extensively.
Through their own organization, the YRC Alumni Association, Chorus alumni present concerts throughout United States and in November 2013 they sang their 60th Anniversary concert at Yale’s Woolsey Hall.
The Yale Women’s Slavic Chorus is a performing group of women from a variety of cultural and academic backgrounds who share a common interest in Slavic music.
Most members of the Chorus had very little exposure to Slavic Music before coming to Yale, and most members do not speak any of the native Slavic languages.The Slavic Chorus, Yale’s oldest all-women vocal ensemble, has always been dedicated to maintaining musical vigor, excitement, and fellowship among members and with our audience.
It is comprised primarily of undergraduates
