Russian quartet to sing tonight

PORT ANGELES — The final concert in the 2018-19 Maier Hall Concert Series will be performed by artists who have traveled from the other side of the world to share their unique program with local audiences at 7 tonight.

The St. Petersburg Men’s Ensemble will take the stage at Maier Performance Hall on the Peninsula College Port Angeles campus, 1502 E. Lauridsen Blvd.

Tickets are available from the Peninsula College bookstore at bit.ly/2GDud4p or at the door. General admission is $15; student admission (with ID) is $5; season tickets are $50.

Founded in 2003, the repertoire of this a cappella quartet from Russia encompasses various musical periods and styles, from ancient Russian chants to chorales of Western and East European masters to modern contemporary.

Kirill Sokolov, Sergey Shapinsky, Vadim Smanster and Andrei Volikov have been performing in churches and concert halls throughout the world for the past 15 years.

Each member brings extensive training and experience to the presentation, having attended the Glinka Choir School and the St. Petersburg Conservatory.

The four men, all natives of Russia and all associated with some of the finest choral ensembles in that country, bring an authentic experience of Russian classical, folk and liturgical repertoire.
