Members of the Barnya Russian Music Ensemble performed for students at all of the elementary schools in Darien.
In the picture above they are sharing Russian folk songs, dances, stories, and language with the students at Tokeneke Elementary School.
The full Barynya 20-plus member ensemble, made up of singers, dancers and musicians, will be performing at the Darien High School auditorium in a free public concert on Tuesday, April 17 at 7 p.m, said Rick Sadlon, Director of Music.
The Barynya performances are possible because of a generous gift from the Darien Music for Youth organization.
