Description:
More than 100 years after its composition; On the Hills of Manchuria Waltz remains widely popular in Russia; and was featured in the 1999 American film Onegin; starring Ralph Fiennes. It was written by Ilya Shatrov; a bandmaster of the Russian Mokshansky regimental orchestra during the Russian-Japanese war of 1904-1905. The waltz was published in many different forms after the war; but this version for guitar is based on an arrangement for the Russian seven-string guitar; made by Alexander Soloviov in the late 19th century. While only moderately difficult; this arrangement expresses intense melodic emotion; evoking nationalism and pride. For intermediate players.
