Korobeiniki

Traditional (Russian)

For alto sax and piano

Written in E minor, range E4 to E5

A young peddler with a box full of cotton and silk waits in the tall rye for the girl he loves, ready to give her his finest goods. The words come from a poem by Nikolay Nekrasov; most people know the tune as the music of Tetris.

Also as a duet for two tubas
