Saint Olga

Musica Donavania - Playlist


December 31, 2017

Once again we held a combined December / New Years event. With no winter of our own, we celebratec vicariously with a Russian theme - you just can't get any more winter than Russia. In support of our theme, we present an icon of Saint Olga, who was easily as cold, cruel and treacherous as any Russian winter could be.
