Description:
'Dubinushka', whose title may be translated as 'The Little Oak Stick', was composed By Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov in 1905 during the first Russian Revolution. Rimsky-Korsakov takes his theme from a revolutionary worker's song. 'Dubinushka' is a robust, swaggering march, with Rimsky's characteristic directness and charm to make it vastly enjoyable, and yet at the same time it is clearly an expression of defiance and resolve, a striking document of a pivotal time in Russia's history.
