Vintage Vinyl 001: Aprelevka Records. (Russia)

Vietnam Youth Ensemble Choir and Folk Instruments Orchestra

I’ve been lucky enough to pick up some great vintage vinyl at the boot fair recently, much of which is not available via any streaming services, so it seemed like a nice idea to share them with people.

There’s not a lot of info on this one, other than its on the Russian label Aprelevka, founded in the pre Soviet era 1911. After the revolution the label was nationalised in 1917, and eventually merged with the main Soviet state label Melodyia in 1964.

Do let us know in the comments if you know anything else about this recording. More vintage vinyl to follow.
