[edit] Better version

I have got a better version of the Kalinka song. It is the whole song and in better quality. May I add it to the site? And how do I do that?

[edit]

I did a horrible job of adding Kalinka to the Russian site. [1] I hope someone can do it justice. Or maybe find the right link. --Jake 23:19, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Who wrote it????

I can find no other reference to Ivan Petrovich Larionov apart from what looks identical to the wikipedia article or a tangential reference to the music used in Tetris. Did he really write it or is it the 19th century equivalent of "sampling", taking an existing folk tune and arrangeing it for theatrical performance. Did he even exist or is it an in joke perpetrated by Tetris fans? 152.91.9.9 03:23, 1 September 2006 (UTC)Ian T
