Description: Unlike Dvorák, the two Russian composers and Moniuszko kept to a generalized folk feeling in their songs, using rhythmic characteristics of Polish and Russian folk music rather than adopting particular regional types. That pushes them closer to the ideal salon romance in style, not that that makes them any less interesting to hear given the scarcity of recordings, especially of Cui's songs. Polish, Russian (Cyrillic), Czech-English texts. Urszula Kryger (mezzo), Jadwiga Rappé (alto), Mariusz Rutkowski (piano)
