Freeing the World from the shackles of capitalism.

About Me

The Official Music Of The Soviet Union.

The Red Army Choir was formed out of Moscow's Central Army Club in 1928. Under the name Red Army Song Ensemble, twelve soldier-performers - a vocal octet, a bayan player, 2 dancers, and a reciter - officially performed for the first time on October 12, 1928, at the Frunze Club under the direction of their conductor, Alexander Vasilyevich Alexandrov, a young music professor at the Moscow Conservatory. During World War II, the choir gave over 1500 performances at both soviet fronts, entertaining troops about to go to into battle, at gun emplacements, airfields, and in hospitals.

Today, the choir is led by Vyacheslav Korobko, who has been leading it since 2003.
