Tatamka!

"This is just the best sounding cd of the russian band. It is more serious and has more depth then the other two Real World realizes. The listener find himself into vast russian lands smiling to musical jokes or sensing the Moscow sadness! Best heard near the home fire, with a glass of real vodka in your hand. Shiny song is a super-virtuoso playing of "Il Barbiere di Siviglia", written by G. Rossini. Some songs contain very nice houmor, but why the first is called Tatamka?"

Fun music

"A brilliant album full of humour and terrific musicianship. I had never heard of this group before and was not at all familiar with Russian music, but I can honestly say that I am glad I took the chance and bought this cd. The quartet play the Bayan Accordian, Bass Balalayka and soprano and alto Domra. What is a Domra? It's one instrument that I have never heard of before. Anyone who loves instrumental and classical music...take a chance like I did and buy this cd. I'm sure you won't regret it."
