Farewell of Slavianka - Russian Imperial and White Army song

Описание

"Farewell of Slavianka" (Russian: Прощание славянки (pre-1918: Прощаніе славянки), romanized: Proshchaniye slavianki) is a Russian patriotic march, written by the composer Vasily Agapkin in honour of Slavic women accompanying their husbands in the First Balkan War. The march was written and premiered in Tambov in the end of 1912. In the summer of 1915, it was released as a gramophone single in Kiev. Slavianka means "Slavic woman".
It quickly became a popular song between the ranks of the Russian Army and was later used as one of the battle songs of the White Army, during the Russian Civil War, however the song wasn't lost even after the Soviet victory, and was instead re-adapted with communist-appropriate lyrics.
