Undergraduate students at Bath Spa University with Damir Yakubov and Matt Dicken (lecturer) joined together on 17th March to learn and film this Ukrainian folk song.
The song tells of Cossacks and how they are proudly marching along valleys full of wheat and grass. There are three main characters: Doroshenko, Horoonzhiy, Zagoidachniy - they left their families, mounted horses and hit the road to stop the war.
We stand in support of the people of Ukraine. Please donate money to the Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal
