Cossacks' Dance (composer unknown) Vyacheslav Korobko conducting the Alexandrov Ensemble/Ансамбль Александрова/Red Army Choir Performed in Jerusalem, Israel, 1992.
Аболдеть !!! Это что за состав ? Какой год ? Что за монстры, браво !) Это очень достойно наших дней, даже очень!!! Что за постановка, я такую не видел. Хорошая работа, прекрасное исполнение ! Почему сейчас в репертуаре нет этого блестящего номера, просто легенда ! БРАВО !!!!!!!!
What an amazing displace of grace, coordination, and sheer muscular power. It might look a little goofy at times, but this is truest a spectacle of peak human condition and training.
Cossack dancing: the only situation in which it is acceptable for a Slav to squat without both heels on the ground. Sorry, babushka, but I can't come to dinner today because I'm watching the Cossack dances!
I'm so glad I had chance to watch them live three years ago. You can't imagine how wonderful and powerful it really is. It's for sure one of best memories of my life.
I was a member of the USMC Silent Drill Team, and we threw around 10 lb M-1s with bayonets like baton twirlers. I have to say that I would not have trusted any of my friends not to have killed me with one of these swords. Ochen korosho, Tovarichniki!
