Description
Summary:Nina Nikolaevna starts with an introduction to the songs she will sing. Vasili has been drinking a bit and can't help but join in. Nina told me that she was going to sing her father’s song, her mother's, Amchex'd, an uncle’s and her own. Then they also sang a couple of songs that are ‘theirs’. I guess they developed them together. Start - 16:42 - Singing ends and some explanation in Russian, later followed by some reminisces by Vasili about dog teams and traveling by sled. 26:00 - Nina suggests that they sing together, more singing. 28:15 - More commentary on songs and singing. 28:40 - Nina starts singing again with drum. Nina's husband Vasili is director of ensemble "Fakel." ?Nina taught dance in the children's music school, and has been moving back and forth between Manily and Palana for about 5-6 years as of 2012.
