HEY EVERYBODY! Russian Club is proud and happy to bring you it's first ever actual event! This April we will be hosting the very esteeming Russian folk band Золотой Плёс. These guys are great friends of Dr Merrill (who recommended them to us in the first place), and they are incredible musicians.

ZP's three members (Александр, Елена, and Сергей) will be playing a number of tunes on over 20 folk instruments like балалайки, дудки, and гармошки, all wearing traditional Southern dress. They will be performing Sunday, April 18th at 6 p.m. in Snyder-Phillips's RCAH Theater (located in the basement). Also, after the performance, they will be holding a small workshop discussing the origins and roles of folk instruments in Russian culture.

Admission is FREE, so please come and bring a friend. Here's a flyer! And here's another one!
