Dear friends & fans,
First, the special announcement - Inna, the singer of Romashka and
Ljova, the violist, are getting married this weekend! Their love
story, from an innocent fan email to dramatic proposal at a Romashka
show is chronicled in the New York Observer here:

Romashka (of course) is playing the wedding, and a pre-wedding
musical celebration is at Joe's Pub the night before with Ljova &
Inna's other projects.
But before Ljova & Inna dance off to their honeymoon, one last show,
a special night of TANGO and ROMASHKA, organized by Generation R, a
Russian-speaker group at the JCC on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
Hope to see some of you there!
