Piano Solo - Подмосковные вечера (Moscow Nights, 莫斯科郊外的晚上）

This is Van Cliburn's arrangement of the Russian song "Moscow Nights" (by Solovyov-Sedoy). He performed this piece for the Russians after winning the 1st Tchaikovsky Competition, at his last recital in Moscow on May, 14, 1958. In 1960 Muzgiz Publishers issued the sheet music of this performance, transcribed by musicologist V. Vladimirov. Unfortunately, this sheet music was made without any accuracy. I tried my best to play as closely to the recording from Van Cliburn's performance.
