DU Classical Music fans: I need your help identifying the music on this Russian propaganda video

[Tommy_Carcetti]

(This cheerful young woman is Maria Katasonova, a close associate of Konstantin Rykov, the Kremlin propagandist who claimed to have run an operation to get Trump elected.)

I know it’s a strange request and a bit of a bummer but it’s for a project I’m currently working on and it’s killing me. So any help at all in identifying the time is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

1. I don't recognize it off the bat, but sounds like it could be Rimsky-Korsakov.

*not pretending to be an expert*

Have you tried Shazam?

4. It's "The Blizzard Troika" by Vladimir Fedoseyev

6. Thanks! I have to admit, I'm not familiar!

And, he's accused of being anti-Semitic, so fits a right-wing profile.....

2. The Russians love their Prokofiev...

Could it be something by Sergei?

3. At least it's not the Red Army Choir(the surviving ones) singing Era's Ameno.

That fake Tsar Bomba footage.

How recent is this?

5. 2014 or 2015

Right after Russia had invaded Eastern Ukraine.

Katasonova also starred in a 2017 music video about the US election titled rather audaciously “Russian Hacker.”

8. Georgy Sviridov "Winter Road"

9. Helpful tip

Not always, but often the music is listed on YouTube. Scroll down just a bit until you see "SHOW MORE" and click on it. The name of the piece and the composer are given.

Or, just read Donkees' reply.
