Russian Chanson: New Songs

A penchant for melancholy, poetry and romance makes its presence felt again and again in Russian chanson. Sprinkle with rock guitars, melodic pop synths and spirited folk rhythms, and powerful voices such as Grigory Leps and Sergey Lubavin will find new, meaningful ways to stir the emotions. Performers like Rada Ray prevail with irresistibly vivacious rhythms and catchy tempo changes.
