  • The Ishkhneli sisters were a quartet of Georgian singers who performed traditional Georgian music during the Soviet era. There were five sisters in all, but not all performed together during the life of the group; they were Nino (1898-1967), Tamari (1900 - 1994), Zinaida (1902-1968), Alexandra (1904-1955), and Mariami (1889-1973). The sisters were natives of Kutaisi, and formed a singing group in 1918 to perform concerts around that town; this disbanded the following year. In 1941, they officially reconstituted the group, which consisted of Nino, Tamari, Zinaida, and Alexandra; Tamari served as director, and also composed a number of songs for the ensemble. The sisters performed concerts for the military during World War II, and in 1949 were named . Mariam was later named an , and Tamari received the same honor in 1976. At her death in 1955 Alexandra was replaced by her sister Mariami. The sisters disbanded the quartet in 1967.

The National Archives of Georgia contain extensive materials relating to the sisters. Recordings made by the sisters exist. (en)
