Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky:
from Fifty Russian Songs
7 Do not overflow, my quiet Danube
8 Are you my plait, my scarf?
9 Is it really you, dove-grey rooster?
10 But we have rented the land
11 Vanya was sitting
12 I shall approach and come up to your town
13 Do not sing, do not sing, O little nightingale
14 Oh, meadow-duck of mine
15 By the gates, the gates
16 Remember, remember, my dear
17 By the gate the pine tree rocks
18 Under the green apple tree
19 Spin, O my spinner
20 As down the hill, down the mountain
21 Snowball tree with raspberries
22 The loach wriggles on the water
23 Yesterday evening I was young at the feast
24 Oh, my heart, my poor thing
25 In the sea the duck was swimming
26 Merry Katenka
27 As across the meadow, across the little meadow
28 Beyond the yard the little meadow is green
29 Yo, heave ho (Song of the Volga Boatmen)
