This medley of folk songs came from a recent trip to Russia by arranger Jamin Hoffman. Katyusha, Moscow Evenings, and Kalinka are all rich in tradition, each with a distinctive taste of the land that has given the world so much important music.

Also a good introduction to key changes, it has interesting parts for all sections, and each get to play the riff-like motif heard throughout. This will certainly be a favorite of your students and makes a great motivational teaching piece. It can also be used as a student-favorite encore. Dur: 1:45
