Credit Notes -- The orchestra "Moscow Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra" is sometimes labeled as "Moscow Philharmonics Symphony Orchestra" and this spelling is maintained in the submission.
Too, the Russian chorus ??????????????? ??????????????? ????????????? ??????? ??????? ??????? is listed as "Russian State Choral Chapel" but is perhaps better translated as St Petersburg State Capella Choir.
