One of the best versions of "Oginsky Polonaise" (performed by Russian military orchestra of course.
Be afraid Travric, be very afraid. )

And to parapharse a quote I think is appropriate

'Beethoven tells you what it's like to be Beethoven and Mozart tells you what it's like to be human. Bach tells you what it's like to be the universe....and erasure tells us what it is like to be Russian!'....

All the music here shows the heart of all the nationalities, Lithuanians, Poles, Estonians, Latvians!

And here's something on the Magyars...


Brahms: Hungarian Dance No. 5 / Abbado · Berliner Philharmoniker - YouTube

Wedding music...good with wine or beer plus the whole gang..everybody feeling good!

Csík zenekar - Villásfarkú fecske (Lakodalmi csárdás és szapora Györgyfalváról) - YouTube




thank you erasure for Oginsky Polonaise! very very good

Travric, as the saying goes - "When the guns talk, the muses fall silent."
Russia undeniably has both. Her guns can be ugly and brutal, or noble and justifiable, but her muses are always top notch. Unfortunately, it seems that you can't have one without the other; it took me long time to realize it. I understood Russia much better looking at her in retrospective. I didn't have good understanding at all, while living in the country.

You know it is apparent that we have our differences in some areas of the conflict there in the Ukraine. But of course I respect your views. From the foregoing it looks like we both understand that all is not doom and gloom when we emphasize the things that bring everyone together to live our lives with our family and friends. Music is one of those things. I know Russians love it deeply. Music goes to the soul all over the world. Let it play and play!

I'd say all are underground singers. Orlova sings poetic songs, Stano pop (not that good though), Jankauskaitė is an actress, but she sings russian romances as a hobby and Milius is a rock/metal artist, he also performs in opera.

The most known that attract biggest crowds was/are "Foje", Sel, Mamontovas, Mikutavičius.

I myself recommend Leon Somov & Jazzu
