Charity Concert: Daughters of Donbas

Daughters of Donbas — Songs of Stolen Children is a music and human rights project that highlights the plight of at least 20,000 Ukrainian children abducted from occupied Ukraine and taken to Russia. 

Singer, musician, human rights advocate and war correspondent, Marichka is the powerful lead voice of the project, in which she performs with a string quartet and bandurist Alina Kuzma. Marichka is a former member of Canadian folk ensembles Lemon Bucket Orkestra and Balaklava Blues and has performed at Carnegie Hall, the Barbican Centre and the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and won an Amnesty International Prize.
