Kultureller Hintergrund
Singing is considered the 'soul' of the nation. Folk songs often have many verses and complex harmonies. Ukrainian communities abroad use singing to maintain their language and connection to their homeland. Soldiers often sing to boost morale. Modern songs about the war have become new 'folk' anthems. In rural areas, singing while working in the fields was a way to coordinate rhythm and pass time.
