The Gerringong Music Club is looking forward to the return of the colourful and entertaining Balalaika Orchestra, ten years after they first performed here.

"This will be a delightful concert," says the Club's Gillian Spooner.

"They will be performing a very diverse program of traditional Russian folk music and light classics with orchestral performers and singers dressed in attractive folk costumes. 

"We look forward to again hearing a typical Russian folk orchestra which usually features the Domra, Balalaika, Bayan, Zhaleika, and various other woodwind instruments and percussion."

The orchestra - which has played in venues such as the Sydney Opera House, NSW Art Gallery, Riverside Theatre and Sydney Conservatorium of Music - continues to be led by Musical Director, Victor Serghie, who is also the principal arranger.

The orchestra's 28 players and singers are a microcosm of the multicultural fabric of Australian society with performers from a diverse range of ethnic origins: Armenian, Belarusian, Chinese, Danish, Indian, Irish, North American, Polish, Serbian and Ukrainian, as well as Australian and Russian. 

Sunday 30 October, Gerringong Town Hall, 2pm.

Tickets on sale at the door from 1.30pm at $25 for visitors. Students and children are free.
