Under the artistic direction of Natalia Borisova, The
Russian Collection has been performing arts-in-education presentations
throughout the United States for over eight years through private sponsorship,
the California Arts Council’s Touring Artist roster and with the Young
Audiences of America. The Russian Collection
has been in existence since 1945 and has performed in Europe, Asia, North and
South America. Thousands of elementary, junior high and high school students
have been entertained and inspired by the exciting virtuosity of The
Russian Collection and their diverse and dynamic programming.
Boasting former directors and soloists from prestigious national ensembles such
as Moiseyev, Georgian State Dance Ensemble, State Academic Ensemble of Belarus,
Romen Gypsy Theater of Moscow, Dan Cossacks and others, the company presents
an authentic contemporary expression of traditional styling, mingled with folklore,
fairytale and historical embroidering. The program is designed with geography,
history and language arts to become a genuine treat for those interested in
understanding Russia’s rich cultural heritage through superb music, dance
and theatrical presentation.
