Hi Carl
All a long time ago. I was in Moscow on a British Council Exchange Studentship. (I was studying intelligence in crows!). A complete non-russian speaker when I went, but the University did very generously provide lots of language lessons, so I did pick up fair bit of language. And finding a Russian girlfriend helped!
Although I wasn't a big fan of Alla Pugacheva, I did like the traditional folk songs and Women's choirs. I was also very fond of Zhanna Bichevskaya. Sadly she seems to have turned into a poster girl for the Ukranian invasion. Ah well.
Joe
