To Dmitri Shostakovich

My favourite of his would have to be the 11th Symphony "The Year 1905". The recordings of Shostakovich by the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra conducted by Neeme Jarvi under the Deutsche Grammophon label are all fantastic.

Hard for me to select one out right as my top one's would be 5th,7th and the 10th Symphony's. Is this true the 8th Symphony was to be titled as the Stalingrad Symphony?

I find Lordi's music incredibly boring. This so called "hard rock" is music for sissies. When I need energetic music I listen to extreme death metal bands such as Brujeria.

The uproar is just hype the pathetic tabloid newspapers have created trying desperately to increase their sales. Almost 50 percent of the voters voted for Lordi and only half a dozen (religious) people are against it here in Finland. The band is just playing along, talking about low self esteem and stuff, and trying the get as much attention as possible, positive or negative (personal opinion). The whole uproar thing started when some greek restaurant society stated aloud their concerns and finnish tabloids reported about it and then the snowball just started rolling.

Amen, perkele!

I gained a mild affection for Russian music during my days of playing Operation Flashpoint.

Mission making in OFP allows for inclusion of audio files and the creation of cinematic cutscenes to be shown before, during or after an OFP mission.

I produced an OFP campaign myself, very heavy on intro cutscenes. The 3 Russian songs I recall including in them were Slavsya Russia, God Save the Czar and Sacred War (Svyaschennaya Voyna).

I hate Russian rap (in its mainstream form), but I rather prefer various Russian rap-alternative bands. Really digging lately...

Kirpichi (slacker rap-rock, in essence)

Delfin (progressive techno-rock-rap)

not music for everyone, but

for me

They dont sound like their reppin tho. I perfer L.O.G., Laostha, Ting Phailavan, A-Pacts.

As I pointed out, they're progressive rap/rock derivatives rather than pure rap. I'm yet to find a pure rap act I like. :hmm:

Plus it's Russian!

Tchocky · 06-22-07, 12:13 PM

I listen to a lot of Finnish/Swedish rock, and Finns pretending to be Russian (Leningrad Cowboys, anyone?

)

I've heard some Russian metal, not too bad. A bit shouty.

Do the Russians have any Christian hymn's?

Depends what you mean. There is a limited amount of gospel music; in fact my father recorded some back in the day. There is also some christian rock, but on the whole the Orthodox church tends to be quite conservative so there's no officially-endorsed modern Orthodox music (though it works the other way, and quite a few popular rock musicians are openly Orthodox).

If you mean traditional, then there is a tradition of orthodox church choral singing. It's pretty amazing and rather different from its western counterparts.

Here's an example:

Also, today I MUST link this -

One of the greatest war songs (an anthem, really) ever:

Let us always remember.

(for those who didn't remember, today is the 66th anniversary of the beginning of Operation Barbarossa and the Great Patriotic War)

All I got....

I really like this song (mainly because I understand it). It's dedicated to the Russian soldiers who fought in Chechnya.

What group is it? Has anybody seen the movie in the video?:hmm:
