Slavic Voices London and Brighton choir will perform a 30 minute folk set as part of Worthing festival under the umbrella of Best Foot Music  events. This is a free outdoor performance in a lovely park. Come and hear us at noon!

Slavic Voices present a vibrant selection of folk music from the Slavic world, showcasing the rich cultural heritage found in traditions from far corners of Siberia to the banks of the Black Sea. The choir sings in Russian, Polish, Ukrainian, Croatian, Slovak, Serbian, Macedonian, Belarusian, occasionally even Romanian or Yiddish. There is freedom and spontaneity in their approach to folklore as well as great attention to cultural context, history and style. Led by Polina Skovoroda-Shepherd, granddaughter of a Cossack and an internationally acclaimed performer, educator and cultural activist, the choir was established in September 2023 and now features approximately 40 singers from diverse backgrounds.
Slavic Voices has collaborated with various artists, including the Macedonian Folk Duo (Filip Arilon and Stojan Stojanov), Maspindzeli Georgian choir (London), Heartwood Chorus in Bristol and the Bulgarian dance group Vezanitsa (Brighton), Icelandic Choir of London, as well as working with Buffo’s Wake, a UK Klezmer-Punk carnival band.
