Hey there! I'm Henry Sergienko, the mandolin player and main point of contact for The Internationals.
We're a diverse and talented musical team based in Chicago, offering a wide range of instruments including piano, violin, harp, saxophone, accordion, and bagpipes. With a blend of classical, jazz, blues, and traditional music from around the world, we've been bringing our unique sound to weddings, corporate events, festivals, and fundraisers for the past 20 years.
Our lead violinist, Michael, brings a wealth of experience to the group whether as a soloist or ensemble player.
In addition to musical repertoire, our dancers are ready to bring traditional and modern moves to the dance floor.

April 14, 2026Michael did an outstanding job. I changed the song. I wanted to walk down the aisle a week before and he was very flexible with me. Having this service added so much class to our ceremony. The violin sounded amazing. Very nice people to work with very professional.
