Extract

In recent years, some very interesting octavo volumes of Russian regional folk-song repertoires have been published, containing melodies and texts unarranged and without artificial accompaniment, with introductions giving relevant dates and data and something of the state of preservation of folk tradition in the given area. The following comments emphasize these aspects rather than the nature of the musical material.
