This all started when I invited a few singers and pianists over to sing some Rachmaninoff or some Martinu, or Szymanowski, and provided some beer and food. People want to sing and play this wonderful music, they want to learn about Ukraine or the Czech Republic, they want to meet people and make connections. In 2019 we had our debut concert in Cincinnati. In 2020 we became a 501 c-3 nonprofit corporation, just in time for the global pandemic, and the near total shutdown of arts organizations in Cincinnati, followed by the invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. Despite these challenges, we believe that art song has a real potential to bring us together and to make the world a better place. Please join us. — Benjamin Flanders Founder and Artistic Director https://www.slavicvoices.org/the-mussorgsky-project daily 0.75 2020-11-03 https://www.slavicvoices.org/our-team daily 0.75 2026-01-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f7ce58f1825ee27237b0f12/1602854849335-A8JWEJGPVB7A9CGLIT2P/FullSizeRender.jpg Our Team - Ben Flanders Tobias Keene, D.D.S.
