  • I'M A VIETNAMESE ! I WANT TO TELL THAT : I LOVE RUSSIAN [ ^.^]

  • @babai2345 I'm sorry but i think you don't whay what kind of ansambles I'm talking about.

    Not about babkina and this shit.

    I'm talking about ansambles who really work on finding the tradition and repeat and save it.

    And there are many of them now, after 1991.

    About music arround the table - yes. and every place it's there oum music and tradition- that is how the folk music born. Arroiund the table, on Chtostmas, Pascha ect.

    You don't live in Russia don't you?

  • @RADAMES1983

    Singing at table on celebrations and feasts is common to Human nature.

    It has nothing to do with Russian folk music, which has being oppressed for centuries and is STILL under oppression today.

    The modern Russian ensemble's production, that you've mentioned, is a no less fake than this 1973 movie!

    It is just pop-music, modeled after Western standards, spiced up with pseudo-Russian colour. As for the authentic Russian folk music - it's something completely different.

  • @babai2345

    I can't agree with you.

    The culture is alive, and there are so many ansambles and groops that really

    performomg it should be abd as it was.

    And it's alive in the hears of the people. Have you ever heard people in Russia singing during the meal? That's a folk music...

  • @RADAMES1983

    I get from your Nick - you from 1983?

    Don't waste your life's time looking for something unreal.

    This film is no more unreal than your perception on Russian culture.

    This culture has passed away...

    But "Fanny and Alexander" is forever ! ;)

  • полный отстой.

    complete BS.

  • @RADAMES1983

    Hehe

    Even the accordion he use "harmonium".

    We don't have accordions in villages. We have Vayan or Garmon', which sounds differante.

    And the dance in not Russian. Everything there is fake :(

  • @catoushka \

    I didn't say they lie, but the movie is from 1973. the couldn.t do that in Russia (ussr) in that time...

    Why people are sensitive? Cause they LOVE this people culture and music, and they see a movie with no anyone of them called "Russian folk music).

    the performance is not only bad but just not that...

  • @RADAMES1983 i don't think you're being racist. I think people are being oversensitive here, and I see absolutely no reason why the filmmakers would lie and get actors, it's senseless. I get annoyed with representations of rural ireland but yes, I have to realise that a decade before I was born, times were different

  • @RADAMES1983 I've been there too, to yekaterinburg and ural area, maybe you're from Russia and if so you are better informed, but remember this is 1973 and times were different, it's not that it's their everyday life but every country has traditional music and dance
