Tatyana Sisoeva has been singing for 40 years already. Her life is closely connected to Ukraine as well. She comes from Izum, her relatives live there, but they don't see each other often, because of the political situation.

Tatyana Sisoeva, the member of “Chistaya krinitsa”: “ Originally, Ukraine and Ukrainians were very kind. And even now, despite all of the problems, the people stay the same. Polite and friendly”.

Now “Chistaya krinitsa” is getting ready for another concert season. The group plans to make a new repertoire and to entertain the listeners with traditional Ukrainian song.
