Interview with Galina Kazimirouskaya

Galina Kazimirouskaya finds that choral music is an incredible power and key to unity, national idea, self-awareness, and roots. During hard times of the political crisis in Belarus 2020, her creative work became a strong civil statement. The regime of Lukashenka got scared of… songs! Galina and her choir became victims of persecutions. Now she continues her artistic missions in exile in Poland, together with the «Free Choir». The choir unites Belarusians and reminds the importance on preserving one’s culture and cultural indentity, especially far from home.

The interview was made as part of the project Femmoz – Empowerment for women in and from Belarus.
