The tradition
"Kalinka" (Russian: Калинка) is a Russian folk-style song written in 1860 by the composer and folklorist Ivan Larionov and first performed in Saratov as part of a theatrical entertainment that he had composed. Soon it was added to the repertoire of the folk choral group. Since the end of World War II, the song has been popularized by the Alexandrov Ensemble, the official army choir group of the Russian Armed Forces.¶
