Where can I find God save the Czar?

TteFAboB · 10-19-06, 07:06 PM

Greetings.

In the game Distant Guns, both the Japanese and the old Russian anthem are part of the soundtrack (not to say that they ARE the soundtrack

).

The Russian one is quite good, better than the current one shall I say. Of course, I'm only interested in the melody, to heck with lyrics, even though the lyrics aren't bad. And here's a preference for singing-along the Japanese one, I don't understand half the sounds (they call it words) I'm making anyway.

Where can I get a good version of the 1800's Russian national anthem? And cheap please.

I actually have that song on my disk. I used it in an Operation Flashpoint campaign I developed. I downloaded quite a bit of Russian military music at the time. I still like to listen to the tracks every now and then.

One of the links on the Richka site Kaptain posted is this one http://www.hymn.ru/index-en.html (The Russian Anthems Museum).

Look here for a zillion different versions of all the Russian-Soviet-Russian anthems. Even the Glinka version (Glinka???)

Still like the commie one the best.
