Original

Poputnaya Pesnia. Traveling Song. Composed by Mikhail Glinka. 1804-1857. Arranged by Vadim Prokhorov. For SATB choir and piano. Secular. Moderately difficult. Octavo. 20 pages. Published by E.C. Schirmer Publishing. EC.6720. "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.
