Terem Quartet (Themes Tracks)

Based in Russia, Terem Quartet was founded by students of the St. Petersburg Rimsky-Korsakov State Conservatory’s Folk Instrument Department. The group first performed in public in 1986 and quickly became a phenomenon in the music world. They play soprano and alto domra, bayan accordion, and double bass, and they intertwine technical skill, depth of feelings, intelligence, and sparkling humor into each note. The Terem Quartet have created their unique style known as “Russian Crossover," or “Teremism," as Rock icon Peter Gabriel called it.
