St Petersburg, Mariinsky II

Concert featuring Maria Maksakova (mezzo-soprano) and the Terem-Quartet


The programme includes:
works by Johann Sebastian Bach, Franz Schubert, Georges Bizet, Alexander Verstovsky, Alexander Varlamov, Pyotr Bulakhov, Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, Anton Rubinstein, Pyotr Tchaikovsky, Ivan Vasiliev, Vladimir Bakaleinikov, Nikolai Budashkin and Matvei Blanter as well as Russian and Ukrainian folk songs

St Petersburg’s Terem-Quartet is a unique orchestra – an ensemble that opens up unchartered musical territories, an innovative ensemble and the first ensemble in the world that also composes music. Since the very day that it was founded on 26 November 1986 this musical ensemble has never been afraid to experiment. Collaborating with jazz and rock musicians, concerts with symphony orchestras and folklore ensembles, opera and ballet projects, a performance at the 2009 Eurovision Song Contest with a rousing version of legendary stage hits and even performing at Karl Lagerfeld’s House of Chanel Paris–Moscow fashion show – all of this bears witness to the continued artistic discoveries the Terem-Quartet Russian musical ensemble has been making ever since.
