More than 90 years after their creation, THE RED ARMY CHOIR – still today one of Russia’s pure artistic gems – have become universal and their reputation cannot be ignored!
　　Inseparable from the revolution that would give birth to the Soviet Empire. The Ensemble was originally dedicated to celebrate the founding father of Bolshevism, Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, says Lenin… Even though they were, in fact, founded four years after his death !
　　Lenin as well as the The Red Army Choir, remain two symbolds of the Russian revolution, even if the tyrannical period of Stalin and the Soviet purges have passed, the Ensemble distances itself from any political representation by being consecrated as an international icon and today the most famous choir in the world.
　　This album takes us back to the origins of sedition and revolutionnary songs, even before the Red Army Choir also became the heroes of the great patriotic war against the Nazis.
　　For the first time, far from the folk songs often associated with their repertoire, this album offers an anthology of the most famous Russian revolutionnary songs. A disc completely remastered, original recordings to collect… Like an artistic bridge linking the history of music and the great history of the world.
