Subject: RE: Russian folksong - ANY information?
No, not in the Balalaika book - but thanks McGrath.

An upbeat "modern" version of the song is by the girls (and guys) of the Slavic Ensemble, who look like they had some fun making the vidclip :

There are squillions of versions to choose from on You Tube (but very varied, shall we say! :)

But it is SO popular, I can't believe I haven't been inundated with replies yet, LOL!

Cheers!
