We are the group ZMEIRADUGA (ЗМЕИРАДУГА, in Russian spelling transcription).
What happens at our performances can be called organic, spontaneous consonance. This is the result of a gradual “attunement” of musicians who are sincere participants in the “dream music” movement, which came to us from the tradition of Australian Aboriginal folk. It is important to note that the music of the ZMEIRADIGA group is in no way an attempt to copy the sound style of the Australian aborigines, being a completely different, original and unique collective musical work, the equal co-authors of which are all the musicians of the group participating in a specific moment of consonance, directly, during of his concert performance. At its core, this is absolutely authentic and modern “dream music” of the aborigines of the Central Russian Upland, which are everyone who has ever been part of the ZMEIRADUGA group.
