Kalinka is maybe the most famous and the most recognizable Russian folk melody. Actually, it is not a folksong: it has a definite author, the composer Larionov, who wrote the song in 1860. But it captures the essence of Russian folk music as no other song.
The word Kalinka is a name of a bush. I have seen translations as diverse as arrowwood, snowball bush, viburnum and highbush cranberry. That doesnt matter much, though: the name has no bearing on the meaning of the song. Not that the song has much meaning at all! The verses dont complement each other or the refrain. What can be extracted from this collection of incompatible lines is that a young boy is dreaming that a pretty, young maiden will love him.
But of course it is not the nonsense of the text, but the beauty of music that made Kalinka so popular. And popular it is! There are countless Russian cafes, souvenir shops, dance groups and singing choirs, named after this song. There is even the dog breed: a small terrier called Kalinka!
I play the song in my own arrangement. You can buy a high-quality MP3 of this song at www.cdbaby.com/...

Sir, you play the very best piano version of this beauty of song in all of RUclips. And maybe the world. Thank you so much for granting the world with this beautiful sound that comes from your love for music, refined skills and artistry.
Thank you!
Katyusha is the girl's name; Kalinka is the bush - there are several translations, I like most the highbush Cranberry (look for images on Google Images)
BM-13 roket was famously used by a zis-6 truck and it got called the Stalin’s organ or Katyusha, though the Katyusha he means is the Katyusha from the russian folksong ( was used by red army choir ) the song is called Katyusha
You performed this greatly Alexander...
It is a shame that people think Russia wanted to invade Ukraine, they didn't, putin may have ruined Russia's reputation... the Music is one of the parts of that reputation however, putin didn't Ruin the music... The Music is the greatest part

De lo mas preciosa esta música... sientes que suelta pasión muy de apoco, muy sutilmente y luego estalla, volviendo a ser sutil y nuevamente desbordarse.
