Artist Background
Award-winning musical ambassadors from St. Petersburg, Russia, Moscow Nights, now based in Raleigh, North Carolina, is an exciting, versatile ensemble of world-recognized, virtuosic musicians. Having established themselves as one of the fastest rising musical groups in the United States and with the release of four recordings, these classically trained artists first took Western Europe by storm and now are bringing their enthralling music to North America. Featuring vocals, Russian percussion, bayan (accordion), zhaleika (wind instrument), and the hottest balalaika playing around, Moscow Nights is slated to be a top highlight for concerts, school shows, and festivals.
