Thats some sweet concert of action.

"Concerted action.
Activity that is planned, agreed upon, arranged, and carried out by parties acting together with the shared intent to pursue some scheme or cause. Typically, each party involved is civilly and criminally liable for the actions of all the other parties committed in furtherance of the scheme or cause. Also called concert of action. See also conspiracy, tortfeasor, and concert of action rule.
noun"

I hope they let the audience dance.

I just came across this group this morning and I am always excited to hear something unique and dynamic. I especially like seeing unusual instruments used in non-traditional settings. Also, the electric fiddle player and the percussionist (doumbek in the first video and traps in the second) are easy on the eyes.

Here they use a hammered dulcimer, an instrument of middle eastern origin:

That looks identical to the hammered dulcimer that I bought for my wife years ago.

I had it custom hand made for her by a dulcimer maker in Nashville.

She LOVES that thing.

(will post a pic later if I can)

Russian folk song - Under a Willow / Black Raven by Pelageya, Elmira Kalimyllina, Anry Gogniasvili, Maria Goya.

Underneath a green willow
Lay a wounded Cossack.

Over flew a pitch black raven
Started croaking in the bush.

The black raven circled over
Scenting very easy pray.

Do not croak, oh you, black raven,
In the bush above my head.

Oy, oh you, black raven
I, Cossack, am not yet dead.

Better fly, oh you, black raven
Home to my mom and dad.

Give my bloody scarf, black raven
To my dearest young wife.

Tell her, tell oh you, black raven ,
That I married someone else.

That new bride for me I found
In the field on river bank.

Very quiet was our wedding,
Underneath a willow bush.

The matchmaker was a saber,
Best man was a bayonet.

Married quickly by a bullet,
Married by the mother earth .

My favorite Russian folk group is Отава Ё (Otava Yo). I have posted some of their videos here before.

Then of course there are the Cossack women. Don't ask her to make you a sandwich.

Meaningful.

"The origins of the Cossacks are disputed. Originally, the term referred to semi-independent Tatar groups (qazaq or "free men") who inhabited the Pontic–Caspian steppe, north of the Black Sea near the Dnieper River. By the end of the 15th century, the term was also applied to peasants who had fled to the devastated regions along the Dnieper and Don Rivers, where they established their self-governing communities. Until at least the 1630s, these Cossack groups remained ethnically and religiously open to virtually anybody"

Willie,
I lack any and all forms of musical talent/skills but, know what I like. When I asked to join the Men's Chorus in high school, I was given the prestigious position of host, only allowed to introduce the group.

Shut up and get off the stage.

I enjoyed listening to most of the music on this thread. Thanks for posting it.

Cossack Bluegrass! I have posted this song before, but not like this...

Another by the same band, this is actually pretty good.

More Russki Bluegrass

They say this is Bluegrass, but it sure sounds like Gypsy Jazz to me.

OK, now there are some crazy Russkis that I never heard of. They are hilarious.
