This piano arrangement by Stravinsky draws on the Russian folk song known as “The Song of the Volga Boatmen.” A weighty, long-breathed melody and a repetitive tread suggesting the labor of hauling a boat form the musical core, creating deep shades within simple material. Listen for the presentation of the melody and the changes in its repetitions, while preserving the resonance of the bass without clouding the inner voices. Even at a slow tempo, keep the music moving; balancing the weight of the chords with the direction of the melody brings out its quiet strength.
