“I put Olga in a category with only one other person, flute virtuoso Pedro Eustache, in that both are totally unique masters of an instrumental world, with both being informed by jazz, classical and folk/world traditions at the highest level.”
Matt Uelmen, composer (“Diablo”, “Torchlight 3″, USA)

“It was the first time I heard the gusli in such a diverse repertoire and in such a virtuoso, sonorous and diverse performance! You play wonderfully!”
Alexei Lyubimov, pianist

OLGA SHISHKINA is a unique gusli and kantele artist known for expanding possibilities of these instruments and bringing them to new levels of virtuosity and expressivity.

She has become one of the main characters in the process of “reintroducing” folk instruments to the world by breaking national and stylistic limitations.
