Kozlovsky recalls this meeting in an article dedicated to Boris Chaliapin. He said that we were very lucky that it was taken on film. He mentions that his voice resembled the voice of his father. Kozlovsky knew the whole Chaliapin's family.
Перша пісня - це українсьока народна пісня на слова поета Тараса Шевченка "Реве та стогне Дніпр широкий", а друга - російська пісня- романс "Сладко пел душа - соловушка".
@sofadesert First song is a very popular folk Ukrainian song " Reve ta stogne Dnipr shiroki", Russians love Ukranian songs, just recently we were the same country, but that does not metter we are the same nation, I can say we are one nation, just speak a little bit differently, but feelings are the same.
