Olga Vasilyevna Kovaleva (1881 - 1962) was born in the village of Lyubovka (Okunevka) in the Atkarsky district of the Saratov province and spent her childhood there.
At sixteen, she leaves her home and goes to the city. In Samara, Olga Kovaleva lives with distant relatives, learns to read and write, and at the age of twenty enters paramedic courses. During these years, she still does not realize her true calling, although she constantly hums folk love songs. The peasant girl's beautiful voice and musicality attract the attention of others. Musicians notice her and help her enroll in a music school to study singing.
Already as a student (1904-1906), she participates in concerts organized by the Samara branch of the Russian Musical Society (RMS). After completing music courses at the Samara Russian Musical Society, Olga Kovaleva goes to St. Petersburg, where she takes lessons from Professor I. M. Pryanishnikov at three-year private opera courses (1907-1909). With the assistance of Pryanishnikov, she joins the traveling opera troupe of Rostov-on-Don, touring the cities of the Volga region (Samara, Tsaritsyn, Astrakhan).
After working there for one winter season (1909/10), Olga Vasilievna Kovaleva left the theater, but performed in concerts with various partners as an “opera singer” (1910/11). Her program includes only arias and romances by Russian and foreign composers.
After a short stay in Lyubovka, Olga Vasilievna decides to include folk songs in her concert performances. The first song she sang was “Luchinushka” (Lubov’s version), which became a kind of musical emblem of all her subsequent concerts. Olga Vasilievna draws her folk song repertoire from the collections of M. A. Balakirev, N. A. Rimsky-Korsakov, A. V. Lyadov, where the songs are presented in a monophonic presentation with piano accompaniment.
Having settled in Novorossiysk (1911/12), O. V. Kovaleva performed with other artists in the cities and villages of southern Russia. And in 1912-13 she gave concerts with her constant partner - violinist Hermann Clemens * - in the Central Russian regions and in the cities of the Volga region as a peasant singer and performer of folk songs. According to the posters, she “performs in the folk peasant costume of the Ryazan province.”
At the beginning of 1914 they are in Moscow. This year is becoming significant for Olga Vasilievna Kovaleva. Many posters and reviews of that time show that the performing profile of O. V. Kovaleva seems to be stabilizing and “enlarging.” If previously the leading figure of the ensemble was violinist Herman Clemens, who “graduated from the Moscow People’s Conservatory,” who performed “with the participation of Mrs. Olga Kovaleva,” now Olga Kovaleva is the main performer of the program; violinist G. Clemens plays variations on the themes of one or two folk songs, and otherwise forms a duet with the singer, playing along with the “backing voices” to the songs.
Particularly significant for Olga Vasilievna was the “Evening of Song” - a concert at the Polytechnic Museum, organized by E.E. Lineva in February 1914. O. V. Kovaleva turns from a provincial, little-known traveling singer into a “famous” performer of folk songs. Her repertoire becomes noticeably more serious, thematically deepens, and at the same time “democratizes.” Olga Vasilyevna’s own recordings—songs of her native Lyubovka, ethnographic recordings of E. Lineva, Yu. Melgunov, N. Palchikov—begin to occupy a large place in it. Her portrait is printed next to the portrait of M.E. Pyatnitsky (Newspaper, 1914). The reviews note the authenticity of folk craftsmanship, truthfulness, simplicity, and restraint inherent in women's folk singing *.
During the difficult war years (1914-1916), Olga Vasilyevna performed at charity concerts, in hospitals (“sister with songs”), in the barracks, led a singing group in a shelter for blind disabled soldiers, sang songs for ordinary people, going around Moscow with Clemens yards. Tours continue to remote and remote corners of the country.
In 1917, a new, second period of Kovaleva’s artistic activity began, which brought her fame, prosperity, and great creative satisfaction. Olga Vasilievna becomes an active participant in concerts for the people. She sings in the workshops of factories and factories, in barracks, in squares and train stations. Its popularity is growing. Now her permanent partners are singer Anatoly Dolivo and the domra quartet conducted by G. P. Lyubimov. In 1921, Olga Vasilievna traveled with them to Sweden and Norway, where the artists gave concerts in favor of the starving people of the Volga region. (Subsequent trips abroad in the same composition were in 1925 - to Paris for the World Art Exhibition, and in 1927 - to Frankfurt am Main for the decade of Soviet art.)
Since 1924, Olga Vasilievna has appeared on the radio, mainly in programs for peasants. She meets in concerts with guslar K. M. Seversky, the choir of M. E. Pyatnitsky, with P. G. Yarkov and his choir, with Irma Yaunzem, and continues to communicate with members of the musical and ethnographic commission of Moscow University, relatives of E. E. Lineva , the Denisov family (female trio), the men's quartet “Folk Song” under the direction of V. A. Fedorov, singer A. I. Tretyakova and many folk song experts. It was in this environment that the traditions of modern folk song performance on the stage took shape and the repertoire of Soviet folk song performers was created.
The second period, the heyday of Olga Vasilievna’s creative and performing activities, ended with her being awarded the title of Honored (1934) and People’s (1946) Artist of the RSFSR.
While at her main job as a soloist of the All-Union Radio, Olga Vasilievna in the third and last period of her working life is a consultant to the Russian song choir of the All-Union Radio. She advises young performers M. Kiryushova, A. Savelyeva, E. Shurupova, E. Semenkina, A. Frolova, L. Zykina, and passes on her performing experience to them. Olga Vasilievna died on January 2, 1962 at the eighty-first year of her life.
Today, “Buranovskie Babushki” is incredibly popular. This is easy to explain. People appreciate sincere, soulful performances of folk songs. We decided to tell you about other, no less wonderful, but less famous folklore performers from the Russian outback.
“Aliyoshnye” songs of the village of Plekhovo
A striking feature of the musical culture of the village of Plekhovo, Sudzhansky district of the Kursk region are “alilesh” songs performed to dance, a developed tradition of instrumental playing, specific choreographic genres - tanks (ritual dance) and karagodas (round dances).
Local tunes that have made Plekhovo famous throughout the world - “Timonya”, “Chebotukha”, “Father”, “It’s Hot to Plow” - are performed by an ensemble with a unique set of instruments: kugikly (Pan flute), horn (zhaleika), violin, balalaika.
The performing style of the Plekhovites is distinguished by a richness of improvisation and complex polyphony. Instrumental music, singing and dance are inseparable components of the Plekhov tradition, which are mastered by all true masters: good singers often know how to play the kugikl, and violinists and horn players sing with pleasure - and everyone, without exception, deftly dances in the karagoda.
In instrumental performance there are traditional rules: only women play the kugikl; on the horn, violin, accordion - only men.
“Oh, what a miracle this is.” Karagod song for Maslenitsa performed by residents of the village of Plekhovo
Suffering in the village of Russkaya Trostyanka
The song tradition of the village of Russkaya Trostyanka, Ostrogozhsky district, Voronezh region, is distinguished by the loud chest timbre of female voices, the sound of male voices in the upper register, colorful polyphony, a high level of performing improvisation, the use of special singing techniques - “kicks”, “resets” (specific short bursts of voice into another , usually high register).
The genre music and folklore system of the village includes calendar, wedding, plangent, round dance, and game songs. Ditties and suffering occupy a significant place in the repertoire of local residents. They could be performed either solo with accordion or balalaika (“Matanya”, “Semyonovna”, “Barynya”), or in choir without instrumental accompaniment (“I’m starting to sing suffering”, “Puva, Puva”).
Another feature of the song tradition of the village of Russkaya Trostyanka is the presence of special spring songs performed from Krasnaya Gorka to Trinity. Such songs that mark the season are the drawn-out “Beyond the little forest, the little forest, the nightingale and the cuckoo flew together,” “We had a good summer in the forest.”

Ballads of the Dukhovshchinsky district
Lyrical songs are one of the dominant genres in the song tradition of the Dukhovshchinsky region. The poetic lyrics of these songs reveal the emotional states and mental experiences of a person. Among the plots there are even ballads. The melodies of lyrical songs combine exclamatory and narrative intonations, and expressive chants play an important role. Songs are traditionally dedicated to calendar periods (summer, winter) and individual holidays (Maslenitsa, Spiritual Day, patronal holidays), autumn-winter gatherings, farewell to the army. Among the features of the local performing tradition are a characteristic timbre and special performing techniques.

Lamentations in the village of Cuckoo
The village of Kukushka, in the Perm region, is like a reserve of Komi-Permyak traditional singing. The area of specialization of the ensemble members is singing art, traditional dances, dances and games, folk costume. The “massive”, timbre-intense, “filled” ensemble singing typical of the Kochi-Permyak Kochis acquires special brightness and intense emotionality when performed by Kukushan singers.
The ensemble consists of residents of the village of Kukushka, connected to each other by family, kinship, and neighborhood ties. The members of the group collect all genres of the local song tradition: drawn-out, lyrical Komi and Russian songs, dance, game, round dance songs, wedding ritual songs, spiritual poems, ditties and choruses. They master the tradition of lamentation, know the children's folklore repertoire, fairy tales and lullabies, as well as dance, dance, and game forms of local folklore. Finally, they preserve and reproduce local ritual and holiday traditions: the ancient wedding ceremony, the ceremony of seeing off the army, the remembrance of the dead, Christmas games and Trinity meadow festivities.

Karagod songs of Ilovka
Traditional songs of the southern Russian village of Ilovka, Alekseevsky district, Belgorod region, belong to the song style of the Voronezh-Belgorod border region. The musical culture of Ilovka is dominated by drawn-out, widely chanted songs and round dance (karagod) songs with crossed dances.
In the singing tradition of the village, signs of the southern Russian style are clearly visible: an open, bright voice, the use of high registers for men and low registers for women in joint singing, the influence of the style of round dance songs.
There are very few calendar-ritual song forms in the Ilovsk tradition. The only calendar song that has survived to this day is the carol “Oh, Kaleda, under the forest, forest!”, which is performed in polyphony. There are few seasonally dedicated songs, among them we can note the Trinity round dance “My All-Leafy Wreath”.

Binge drinking in the Afanasyevsky district
Residents of the villages of the Kirov region remember, love and carefully preserve local singing traditions.
Lyrical songs constitute one of the most important parts of the cultural heritage of the region. There is no special term to designate the genre of lyrical songs in the Afanasyevsky district of the Kirov region. Most often, such songs are characterized as long, drawn-out, heavy. In the stories of the performers they are also mentioned as ancient, since they were sung in former times. Common names are those associated with the songs not being tied to a date (simple songs) or with their belonging to holidays (holiday songs). In some places, there are memories of singing certain lyrical songs when seeing off the army. Then they are called soldiers.
Lyrical songs here, as a rule, were not confined to specific life situations: they sang “when it suits them.” Most often, they were sung during field work, as well as on holidays, by both women and men: “whoever wants, sings.”
An important place in tradition was occupied by beer festivals, when guests reveled. The participants in the feast made folds - everyone brought honey, mash or beer. After sitting for an hour or two with one owner, the guests went to another hut. At these celebrations, lyrical songs were necessarily sung.

Shchedrovki in the village of Kamen
The song tradition of the Bryansk region is characterized by the dominance of wedding, round dance and later lyrical songs. In the village of Kamen, wedding, round dance, lyrical and calendar songs are still popular. The calendar cycle is represented here by the genres of the Yuletide period - Shchedrovkas and songs that accompanied the driving of the goat, and Maslenitsa songs performed during the Maslenitsa festivities.
The genre that occurs most often in the Starodub district is wedding songs. One of the few “living” genres today is lyrical songs. Local singers believe that they have undeniable beauty, they say about them: “Beautiful songs!”

Folklore groups – the flavor of any event!
Are you preparing for a wedding, anniversary, concert, corporate event or other event that is significant to you? Today, not a single celebration can do without musical accompaniment and entertainment. And the right music becomes the main key to the success of any holiday!
But here a dilemma arises - how to please all the guests and those present, different in age, status, gender, and musical preferences. And we found such a universal solution for ourselves - to organize a performance of Russian folk performers. It is probably difficult to find a person who would not be a connoisseur of traditions, would not respect folk art and would not be interested in history. In addition, folklore always carries an interesting semantic load, perfectly conveys the experiences and joys of ordinary people, and the instrumental accompaniment will not leave anyone indifferent. That is why a performance by a Russian folk song ensemble will be the best solution for an event of any format.
Russian folk songs represent a very important layer of national folklore and are rooted in ancient times. Some of them are of pagan origin, and some arose under the influence of Christianity. Ancient songs were composed by East Slavic tribes that lived on the territory of Rus'. This can be judged from the results of archaeological excavations and a number of creative elements preserved in later folklore. By the time the ancient Russian state was founded, beautiful songs occupied an important place in the culture of the Russians, but with the advent of Christianity, folklore began to decline. Songs for dancing and instrumental music were not welcomed by the official authorities, and were often completely banned as pagan. Folk instrumental music began to experience its next period of prosperity almost two hundred years after the adoption of Christianity.
Main directions
The main genres of Russian musical folklore include dance songs, round dance songs, wedding songs, ritual songs and lyrical songs. In the nineteenth century, ditties became popular. Russian folk music is also famous for its rich instrumental accompaniment. String and wind instruments became widespread, and folk songs accompanied by accordions became the hallmark of the country. But, despite this, Russian songs still rely heavily on vocals. This is obviously connected with the introduction by the church of a number of restrictions on the use of musical instruments. Cheerful songs were not welcomed in those days, although there was no strict ban on them either.
Modern performers of Russian folk songs are famous throughout the world. This fame is primarily due to its unique vocals. The folk song ensemble "" has been famous throughout the planet for many years. Its participants have repeatedly become winners of many music competitions in various categories.
