This is a bit left-field but are there any fans of Cossack choir music on here? I can’t be the only one on, can I?
(The following songs are well worth a listen, for something a bit different. The lyrics of this song and the third one I posted are quite something)
I’ve always been a fan of the ‘loud quiet loud’ and the ‘building to a crescendo’ types of music and some of these songs follow similar patterns.
Take, for example, one of my favourite Cossack songs called ‘when we were at war’ which starts out relatively quiet with Viktor Sorokin singing accompanied by an accordion and a balalaika. Each verse then sees more and more instruments joining in, and eventually the backing singers until it reaches a crescendo of sound. It’s well worth listening to if you’ve never heard it before.
Tip: listen with earphones
