Vakh'hicheskaya pesnia. Composed by Nikolay Andreyevich Rimsky-Korsakov. Choral octavo. With Language: Russian. Musica Russica #PS 023MC. Published by Musica Russica (MR.PS-023mc).A drinking song in the form of a fugue? You bet! This surprising piece, based on a libertine poem by the great Russian poet Alexander Pushkin, is a rollicking contrapuntal romp, praising not only Bacchus and lovely women, but also the preeminence of reason and enlightenment.
