“Farewell of Slavianka“ / Russian: Прощание славянки is a Russian patriotic march, written by the composer Vasily Agapkin in honour of the Slavic women accompanying their husbands in the First Balkan War. Slavianka means “Slavic woman“.
The melody gained popularity in Russia and adjoining countries during World War I, when the Russian soldiers left their homes accompanied by this music. This march was also used as an unofficial anthem of Admiral Kolchak’s White Army.
The “Farewell of Slavianka“ first received official lyrics under the Soviet leadership, which were appropriate for the political climate at the time. The part about Russian culture, religion, and patriotism was changed. A more patriotic version of the march, written by Andrei Mingalyov with the title “Arise for faith, o Russian land!”, was created after the fall of the Soviet Union, in 1997. This is the version performed in this video.
This video is produced as part of the project for the book “The Romanov Royal Martyrs”, which is an impressive 512-page book, featuring nearly 200 black & white photographs, and a 56-page photo insert of more than 80 high-quality images, colorized by the acclaimed Russian artist Olga Shirnina (Klimbim) and appearing here in print for the first time.
