Russian Folk group Tryn-Trava from Saint Petersburg, Russia
Фольк-группа "Трынъ - Трава" была создана в 2000 году в Санкт-Петербурге - городе богатом
фольклорными традициями.
Само название коллектива - "Трынъ-Трава" - в современном понимании означает некоторую
несерьёзность, лёгкое отношение к жизни, отсутствие догматизма, - что и определяет
музыкальный стиль группы. В аранжировках песен и романсов, наряду с традиционным исполнением,
нередки и музыкальные шутки, коллажи, смешение различных стилей и культур.
В репертуаре ансамбля старинные русские, казачьи, украинские, цыганские песни и романсы,
песни советских композиторов, народные игры и танцы с участием зрителей. Концерты
возможно проводить в концертных залах, ресторанах, клубах и частных домах.
За время существования ансамбль "Трынъ-Трава" приобрёл заслуженную популярность в
Санкт-Петербурге и области. Группа выступает на сценах крупнейших концертных площадок города
и области ,на центральных городских праздниках, участвует в открытии выставок, приёмах
иностранных делегаций, записях для программ Петербургского Радио и Телевидения.
Коллектив -
постоянный участник российских и международных музыкальных, эстрадных праздников и
фестивалей. В составе делегации Санкт-Петербурга ансамбль выступал на о. Кипр в 2002 году. В
новогоднюю ночь 2003 года группа "Трынъ-Трава" открывала празднование начала юбилейного
года Санкт-Петербурга на главной сцене города перед мэрией. В январе 2003 года по
приглашению ассоциации Прованс-Россия ансамбль успешно гастролировал на юге Франции. Летом 2004
года коллектив принял участие в записи песни Максима Леонидова " Зимбабва", которая вошла в тройку лучших песен хит-парада "Русского радио" .
Группа записала и выпустила два компакт-диска - Крутится-вертится+(The
Wheel of+)" и Карусель
(Merry-go-round)", которые можно найти в лучших музыкальных магазинах
города("505","Меркурий" и др.)
В составе коллектива четыре человека (две девушки и двое мужчин), каждый
из которых поёт и играет на различных музыкальных инструментах (баян, аккордеон, гитара,
балалайка, бубен, трещотки, ложки и др.). Для некоторых программ иногда приглашаются
дополнительно другие музыканты (скрипка и т.п.) и профессиональные танцоры. Яркие расшитые
костюмы в казачьем, современном русском и цыганском стиле. Так же есть вариант зимних
концертных костюмов для работы на уличных площадках (например, гуляние на Масленицу).
Фольк-группа "ТРЫНЪ-ТРАВА" предлагает следующие программы:
1. Концертные программы:

RUSSIAN DANCE
First official record of Russian dancing is related to year 907 when Great Russian Prince Oleg (Vechshiy Oleg) celebrated his victory over Greeks in Kiev.

After the dinner was over Great Prince commanded to release the bears into the wild and to execute all the dancers.

Russian New Year's characters Father Frost and Snow Maiden
Ded Moroz and Snegurochka (Russian: Дед Мороз и Снегурочка)
Father Frost and Snow Maiden are the most important characters of the New Year's celebration in Russia. Father Frost (Ded Moroz, Russian: Дед Мороз) plays a role similar to that of Santa Claus. The literal translation of the name would be "Grandfather Frost". However, English-speakers traditionally translate "DED MOROZ" as the alliterative "FATHER FROST". Ded Moroz is always accompanied by his granddaughter Snegurochka - Snow Maiden (Russian: Снегурочка).
New York based ensemble Barynya created a special Russian New Year's program with traditional Russian winter songs, dances and music: "In the forest a fir-tree was born" (V Lesu Rodilas' Yolochka), "Small Fir Tree is Freezing during the Winter" (Malen'koi Yolochke Kholdno Zimoy), "The snowstorm is blowing along the street" (Metelitsa), "Father Frost" (Moroz-Moroz), "Five minutes" (Pyat' Minut).
Ded Moroz and Snegurochka are available for hire in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania (within 100 miles driving distance from New York City). For a fast price quote contact Mikhail Smirnov
