Ermitage - Biography
Produced by Leslie Mandoki, Russian Memories was the orchestrated ethno-pop album project for Michail Gorbachevs aid organization Green Cross International Global Sounds for a Better Understanding Music and Politics in the European Haus.

The album is a combination of traditional Russian songs played by an orchestra mixed with some synthesizer arrangements. About a third of the songs feature choral female vocals and or Gregorian-like chanting. Other tracks like Paranya and Petropolis which feature the Russian folk group Baba Yaga, sound strikingly similar to Ivan Kupala. The overall effect of the album is to draw up memories of the more glorious days, of the former Soviet Union.
