About this arrangement

SATB choir, piano - moderately difficult SKU: EC.6720 Composed by Mikhail Glinka and Vadim Prokhorov. Arranged by Vadim Prokhorov. Secular. Octavo. E.C. Schirmer Publishing #6720. Published by E.C. Schirmer Publishing (EC.6720). UPC: 600313467202. 8.5" x 11" inches."Traveling Song by Mikhail Glinka is perhaps the first railroad song. It was composed in 1840 as a tribute to the opening of Russia's first railroad, which connected St. Petersburg with the royal summer residence in Tsarskoe Selo. The song offers a dazzling picture of movement generated by the time's biggest wonder, the locomotive engine.This express tongue twister of a song starts with the refrain, which moves in a perpetual mobile mode. The verse is of a lyrical character, despite the fact that the tempo never wavers, staying the same throughout the work. The song is included in the song cycle A Farewell to St. Petersburg." - Vadim Prokhorov Includes a transliteration guide for the Russian lyrics and an Englishsinging translation.
