  • Russian Red Army Choir - Kalinka.
    "Kalinka" might be the best-known Russian song of all time. It has been mistaken as being a genuine folksong, but was actually written in 1860 by the composer and folklorist Ivan Petrovich Larionov and first performed in Saratov as part of a theatrical entertainment that he had composed. Soon it was added to the repertory of a folk choral group.
    The song celebrates a snowball tree, with a speedy tempo and light-hearted lyrics. Singers and dancers many a time get into a frenzied celebration of song and dance while performing this song. The actual content of the song cannot be translated, as it possesses many Russian expressions and words that can hold a double meaning and have no equivalent in other languages.
    In 2003, Roman Abramovich bought Chelsea FC. Since then, "Kalinka" has been associated with the London based Football Club and is often played before or after important matches.

    I recommend everybody to watch other Evgueny Belyaev's TV record of Kalinka in 1965, it's an concert's extract posted by an other Alexandrov Red army soloist, Leonid Kharitonov.
    As always his singing is wonderful and he even danced with the arms!
    You can also listen to this great singer in the song "You are always beautiful" (in Russian), and the Irish song (in irish!) "Annie Laurie" posted by Riverhouse2007, an English fan.
    Best greetings from France !

    Before the war, as a boy Evgueny Belyaev won a song contest, so between 2 fights he sang for his comrades.
    He was always one of my favourite singers, I listened to Kalinka thousand and thousand of times!
    He sang with so much vitality, ardour and joy...I always enjoy and love his wonderful singing.

      I was born in america and i dont like comunism.... but i wont lie red army cior and ussr has great music. I personaly try to look at war enemys music differently than the actual politicians responsible for the war. As most war tunes are simply patriotic songs about there love and devotion for there country or there struggles, hardships and victorys on the battlefeild. Tho war is bad, War music isint necissarily bad. Like The german tune Erika. Its often veiwed as bad cause its the most poppular german war tune people think revolves around ww2. But really it goes way back to beffore ww1. Its not even about violence. Its about soldures singing about there maidens back home that the song depicts as a flower.

    I'm 40 years old, and because my father was a fan, I heard the first time this great singer, Evgueny Belyaev, at the age of 5 in concert!
    E. Belyaev fought the nazis in his youth (from 16 to 19) so he was a true soldier, but only to defend his homeland (the nazis killed 20 millions of Russians).
    At the end of the II World war he was sergeant and he received for this bravery and important military medal.
    But usually the Alexandrov artists are musicians who wear uniforms.

    This is music with heart, it takes a lot of composing. It doesn't compare to the 4 guitar band stuff we try to pass of as musical talent. This chorus has spent many hours rehearsing to get it right. Its music that has more than just 4 chords. It takes real talent to produce something as grand as this. Its beautiful stuff Choir , where in the USA is there anything on this grand of a scale? Forget the Politics, just remember their music and culture are older than ours.
