    Slavyanka . .

     

     

    We are glad that Deanne Merrill and Donn Davy continue to share with us some of their Russian liturgical and folk music on the Slavyanka Men's Slavic Chorus site on F&P. Drop in and listen to their music; learn more about their Chorus (from the San Francisco Bay area) and join their mailing list.
