We did not originally plan to create an archive. However, we decided to make our recordings public when we noticed that the excellent polyphonyproject.com lacked singing groups from the Luhansk and Donetsk regions. Additionally, our materials from the Luhansk region help dispel widespread media narratives that portrayed Eastern Ukraine as merely a „Russian border“. In reality, the Luhansk Region is unquestionably Ukrainian – a place that actively preserves and cherishes its national cultural heritage. We want to share this truth with everyone who hasn’t had the opportunity to visit Eastern Ukraine.
