On the Road To St. Petersburg (Vdol po Piterskoy) - The Don Cossacks Choir conducted by Serge Jaroff, Columbia ca 1927 (UK) NOTE: The Don Cossacks Choir was a men's chorus of exiled Russian Cossacks founded in 1921 by Serge Jaroff and conducted almost sixty years by him. With World War II looming, the choir found a new home in the U.S.A. and Sol Hurok became manager of the choir. After the War in 1953, Konzertdirektion Collien from Hamburg took over the choir and in 1960 the choir was taken over by Otto Hofner from Cologne. Hofner and Jaroff would eventually become good friends and in 1981 Jaroff transferred all the rights of his choir to Hofner. The Don Cossack Choir was renowned for both the quality of the tenors and especially for the depth and resonance of the low basses, particularly Pyotr Mihailik. It was reported that he could reach the bottom E of the piano. This unique blend of voices provided a different experience for most western audiences, increasing the popularity of the choir greatly. Attention: The English title on the label should be: Down The Road Of St. Petersburg (not: To St.Petersburg)
