Right now, we’re listening to selections from Rimsky-Korsakov’s “Sadko.”
Stay with me for musical depictions of the nefarious cossack and freebooter Stepan Razin and the heroic bogatyr Ilya Muromets, by way of the epic Symphony No. 3 by Reinhold Gliere.
It’s all music inspired by Russian folklore this morning, until 11 ET, on WPRB 103.3 FM and wprb.com.
