In honor of the 2011 Victory Day, celebrated on May 9th to commemorate the 66th anniversary of the end of World War II, we present the Choir singing “Forward, on the Way!” (В путь!)
This rare and historic program was filmed on location in the former Soviet Union in 1965. The ensemble consisted of about 200 entertainers including a choir and choreographic troupe, who travelled the front lines, entertaining Soviet troops by performing more than 1500 concerts during World War II.

Путь далек у нас с тобою, Солдаты, в путь, в путь, в путь… Каждый воин – парень бравый, Солдаты, в путь, в путь, в путь… Дни теперь для нас настали Солдаты, в путь, в путь, в путь… Путь далек у нас с тобою, Солдаты, в путь, в путь, в путь… |
Our way is long, Soldiers, on the way, on the way, on the way… Each warrior – a brave fellow, Soldiers, on the way, on the way, on the way… The days now became for us Soldiers, on the way, on the way, on the way… Our way is long Soldiers, on the way, on the way, on the way… |
My favourite recording of this!
