Red Army Choir - Sheet Music?

[Frederik.Sjölund]

Hello fellow music-people.
I've been thinking about making a kind of "remix" of one or more of the old Red Army Choir tunes from the days of the reds
So I was wondering if any of you may know where on the internet i could find it? Alternatively midi-files would work aswell.

Cheers,

Hi Fred does the Red Army Choir still exist? sorry can't help with your search

 

[Frederik.Sjölund]

I'm not sure if they still exist. Maybe for novelty purpose.
But the sheet music should be stashed away somewhere, one would think

Hej Frederik,

Gå in på www.notes.tarakanov.net Visserligen det är på Ryska men Boris Tarakanov har samlat på massvis med musik, mycket som inte finns på IMSLP/Petrucci samlingen. De kanske *speglar varandra* - Tarakanov och IMSLP's servrar...

 

[Frederik.Sjölund]

Thank you very much, Corno!
I will check it out emediately

 

[Frederik.Sjölund]

Excellent! I found lots of tunes by Alexandrov over there. Thanks again!

Hi Frederik,

There's lots more than just Alexandrov that the ol' Red Army Choir sang. Dmitri Hvorostovsky recorded an album entitled *Where are you my brothers?*. There are real tear jerkers on that cd - Composers who I never heard of or most in the West never heard of because of all the difficulties in Russia. Besides all the *agitprop* music written by those composers, they also wrote some heartachingly poignant music that does not leave one unmoved. Best wishes on your project that includes this music.

Cheers,
