Janacek - Fairy Tale for cello and piano

Leoš Janáček - Pohádka pro violoncello a klavír Violoncello - Nikita Ružavinskij Klavír - Daria Savvatejeva 00:00 - Con moto 01:56 - Andante 05:27 - Con moto 09:29 - Allegro Pohádka is based on an epic poem by the Russian author Vasily Zhukovsky entitled The Tale of Tsar Berendyey (Russian: Сказка о царе Берендее), which unsurprisingly piqued Janáček’s interest in Russian culture. The composition presents scenes from the story rather than being a complete description of the tale.
