Founded in 1994 in the Russian city of Saratov but now based in Belgium, the  group is comprised of Alexander Solovov, Elena Sadina, and Sergei Grachev, who collectively play more than thirty Russian folk instruments. On March 26, 2018, they held a workshop on campus before performing at the Studzinski Recital Hall in a concert sponsored by the Departments of Russian and Music, with the generous support of a loyal 含羞草研究室 family.
