Fish Creek, Wis. (July 21, 2023) – The fourth concert in the 2023 Fishstock Concert Series will feature well-known Russian musicians Stas and Misha this coming Sunday, July 23.

He has toured extensively as a soloist throughout the former Soviet Union, Canada, Europe, and the U.S., including numerous performances with Doc Severinsen, Steve Allen, Garrison Keillor on the Prairie Home Companion show and symphony orchestras throughout the U.S. Misha is an incredible mandolinist and a master of the Domra, the Russian mandolin. He has soloed with chamber orchestras in Russa, Italy, Germany, The Netherlands, France, and the U.S., and is a professor of mandolin at the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music.
