ABOUT THIS PIECE:
"Korobeiniki" is a nineteenth-century Russian folk song that tells the story of a meeting between a peddler and a girl, describing their haggling over goods in a veiled metaphor for courtship. Outside of Russia, "Korobeiniki" is widely known as the Tetris theme (titled "A-Type" in the game), from its appearance in Nintendo's 1989 version of the game.
One of our most popular arrangements, this piece is high-paced and features all the usual trappings associated with this musical style – fireworks to start, a slow, melancholy iteration of the melody, an unruly accelerando, and all finished with a loud shout (‘Oi!’) from the band!
