Surorile Osoianu

Surorile Osoianu is a beloved family folk ensemble from the village of Horești in Fălești, Republic of Moldova, consisting of five sisters—Ileana, Iulia, Valentina, Romela, and Maria Osoianu. Born between 1958 and 1966, their musical journey began in early childhood, and they have since become renowned for preserving and revitalizing Moldovan folk traditions, performing a rich repertoire that includes lullabies, carols, love songs, ballads, and Easter songs. Not just performers, they also educate and inspire younger generations by leading children’s folk ensembles and have toured extensively across Europe, sharing their music from the Baltics to France and beyond.

Their recent releases, such as "Colind," "Limba Română," "Paparuda," and "Trece-Un Nouras," showcase their commitment to both traditional and contemporary folk sounds, blending their heritage with fresh, energetic arrangements. The sisters are widely recognized not just as musicians, but as cultural ambassadors who have brought Moldovan folk music to stages around the world while remaining deeply rooted in their local community.
