The group first album resulted from a prolific collaboration which they had with the famous panpipes player Gheorghe Zamfir. This material contains a variant of the Vivaldi’s Seasons, arranged in a special way by Lucian Moraru, the founder of the group. The latter used the panpipes instead of the solist violin, obtaining a real premiere in the field. The other two albums were presented to the public in 2009 and 2013 and these are Tango Finesse and Tango Aficionado which include some of the most seductive authentic tangoes, performed with a new, innovative instrumental shape. It certainly comes as a surprise when the orchestration for the tango music supposes the use of the panpipe to which it is added the chords quintet, the accordion, piano and in certain musical fragments, the percussion rhythm instruments.

The fourth album of the group called Traffic Strings Live in Concert creates addiction. The album contains famous musical pieces, but due to the new and unusual manner for the classic music interpretation, these “offer the listeners the feeling of freshness and the spectacular brightness of the fireworks”.
