The origins of Russian music have a long history. It is related to the beliefs, customs, customs and rituals of the Russian nation. In the process of historical development, it continued to blend with surrounding national cultures, forming a musical culture with Russian national characteristics.
Ancient Rus was a Christian country, and the music at that time was basically religious music.
Russian music culture reached a period of prosperity in the 19th century. In the 19th century, many composers emerged. They inherited their own Russian national music tradition and at the same time adopted classical, romantic and realist music forms to express the social atmosphere of Russian society and the pursuit of the people at that time.
The era of exploration of Soviet music was from the October Revolution to the 1930s. Many musicians and composers began to explore modern themes and musical languages, trying to create different songs, adding a lot of color to the music of this era. In the 1920s, a number of song representatives appeared who used large-scale symphonies to express social reality. Composers observed the society from their own perspective and created works that transcended the spirit of the times.
Every era of Russian music has its own characteristics of the era, and Russia’s current modern pop music is still at a preliminary level of development, so there are still many shortcomings. A far cry from the classic Russian oldies. I personally feel that previous Russian songs were composed by each composer using their own unique feelings to write down their beautiful yearning for this society and this era. So even simple words will make people feel particularly comfortable. But today’s popular music is still in the development stage, so it’s still a bit poor.
