Two generations of lead singers for Listopad! Aisha Malik (class of 2021) and Mya Kahle (class of 2024) team up to sing one of our favorite songs (Bare-skinned) by the band Пятница (Friday). I really like our version of this song!

Дорогие друзья! / Dear Friends! Better late than never! Here is a video of last Spring's performance by our band Листопад / Listopad of a song by the Russian band Аквариум / Aquarium called "Chief of the Porcelain Tower" (Начальник фарфоровой башни). Big thanks to Chenkai Yu for putting together this beautiful montage of different camera angles! I will posting another video with other members of the band in a few days (I just figured out how to edit the clips).

We've sent this announcement to our tea list and put it on Instagram - thought we should put it on Facebook as well. This past year marks Fyodor Dostoevsky’s 200th birthday! To honor the great author, your Russian Department is very glad to announce that we’ll be holding a Dostoevsky Film Festival this February!

Then, join us on Fridays to view a variety of different films based on the works of Dostoevsky (on the schedule and accessible through the QR code)!

This is a series you won’t want to miss!
