Алябьев - Как за реченькой слободушка стоит - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

Slova: A. A. Delvig

In this song, Alyabyev widely develops a genuine folk melody, developing it in a kind of variation and three-part form. The basis of the whole composition is the contrast of two song topics - the initial dancing theme and the slow lyrical song “How I upset you”, which appears in the middle section.

The song “How I upset you” was subtly used by Alyabyev as an image of the memory of a young peasant-Vdova about an irreversible loss. The traditional genre of “double Russian song” turns into a dramatic “musical story” - a story about a female share.
