OMSK - St. Nicolas Cossack Cathedral
St. Nicolas Cossack Cathedral designed by a great Russian architect V. Stasov was built in 1840. It used to contain the main relic of Siberian Cossacks — the legendary standard of Yermak troops, which had been produced by the masters of the Kremlin Armory for the Moscow Streltsy regiment in 1690 and thus became a symbol of Siberian Cossacks in the 18th century. In 1882 it was brought to Omsk from Berezov town, but it disappeared without leaving a trace during the years of civil war. It’s believed that in the year of 1918 the relic was stolen by Ataman Annenkov’s troops. Currently a copy of the lost standard is located in the cathedral.

OMSK - Life Giving Cross Cathedral
The oldest cathedral of the city is the church named Life-Giving Cross (Krestovozdvizhensky Cathedral) built upon the project of architects F. Wagner and K. Lazarev. It’s hard to believe, but even during in time of the cruelest persecution of the Russian Orthodox Church it was never closed for community life.

OMSK - Cathedral of the Dormition of the Mother of God ( Assumption Cathedral)
One of the most marvelous city cathedrals — the Cathedral of the Assumption — suffered a complicated destiny. The necessity to build this cathedral appeared in 1879 when the Omsk clergy decided to widen the Resurrection Cathedral which was too small for all the congregations coming to services. The General-Governor of Western Siberia G. Mescherinov proposed to build a new cathedral instead of widening the old one. On July 16 (28), 1891, the future Emperor Nicholas II took part in the ceremony of laying the foundation of the Assumption Cathedral.
The laying of the cathedral was carried out by Nizhny Novgorod bricklayers. The building was made of red bricks, plastered outside; interiors were decorated with frescos and stucco ornaments. In 1898 nine bells were hoisted and three altars were consecrated: the high altar in the name of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, the southern and northern altars — in the names of Nicholas the Wonderworker and Mary Magdalene respectively.
The building was erected mostly due to donations of the townspeople, Russian merchants and Emperor Nicholas II; some funds were contributed by the State treasury. In total 125,000 Rubles were spent on building. Assumption Cathedral was dedicated on September 9 (21), 1898. Built in the open territory of a big town square, the Assumption Cathedral could easily be seen from every angle, and it made a lasting impression on visitors and onlookers.
In the 1930s — as a result of mass antireligious campaigns echoed all over the country — the Cathedral was blown up. In 2005 during a regular session of the Government of Omsk Region a decision was made to restore this wonderful religious building. On October 14, 2005, on the most important Orthodox Church feast — Intercession of the Theotokos — the first foundation stone of the restored cathedral was laid. On July 15, 2007, the Assumption Cathedral opened its doors for the church community.

My husband compelled me - Omsk Russian Folk Chorus
A great Russian choral folk piece from an old record...
Title: Заставил меня муж
LYRICS:
Наша Дарья хоть куда:
И стройна, и молода,
Белолица, круглолица
И на песни мастерица.
Не глупа и не ревнива,
И в работе не ленива,
А такая неумеха,
Что ни сделает — все плохо.
Припев: То-то, лю-ли, то-то лю-ли,
У хозяйки Дарьи,
То-то лю-ли, то-то лю-ли
Каждый день аварии.
Заставил меня муж
Раз лежаночку топить.
Я дрова рубить пошла,
Да топорик не нашла.
Наломала я руками,
Не утянешь и быками.
Печку дома затопила,
Чуть избу всю не спалила.
Припев.
Заставил меня муж
Раз коровушку доить.
Я подойником стучу,
На буренушку ворчу.
А буренушка моя Незадачливая:
Так ногою поддала — Молоко все пролила.
Припев.
— Где ты, Дарьгошка, гуляла, Где ты долго пропадала?
— Я на реченьку ходила, Рыбку неводом ловила.
— Ох ты, Дарьюшка моя, Где же рыбка твоя?
— Неводок я обронила, Чуть на дно не угодила.
Припев.
Заставил меня муж Как-то шанежки месить.
Замесила на дрожжах,
Не удержишь на вожжах.
Стала тесто подбивать,
Захотелось подремать.
До обеда проспала,
Вся квашонка уплыла.
Припев.
Дорогой мой муженек
Раз пельменей захотел.
Я варила в чугуне
Двести восемьдесят две.
Сварился в тот день Вот такой пельмень!
Ай да я, хозяйка-диво, Как я мужу угодила!

About :
Cossacks (Russian: казаки́, kazaki, Ukrainian: козаки́, kozaky, Belarusian: казакi, Polish: kozacy, Czheso-Slovak: kozáci) were a group of predominantly East Slavic-speaking people who became known as members of democratic, self-governing, semi-military communities, predominantly located in Southern Russia and in South-Eastern Ukraine. They inhabited sparsely populated areas and islands in the lower Dnieper,Don, Terek and Ural river basins and played an important role in the historical and cultural development of both Ukraine and Russia.
The origins of the first Cossacks are disputed, though the 1710 Constitution of Pylyp Orlyk claimed Khazar origin. The emergence of Cossacks is dated to the 14th or 15th centuries, when two connected groups emerged, the Zaporozhian Sich of the Dnieper and theDon Cossack Host.
The Zaporizhian Sich were a vassal people of Poland-Lithuania during feudal times. Under increasing pressure from the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, in the mid-17th century the Sich declared an independent Cossack Hetmanate, initiated by a rebellion under Bohdan Khmelnytsky. Afterwards, the Treaty of Pereyaslav (1654) brought most of the Cossack State under Russian rule.The Sich with its lands became an autonomous region under the Russian-Polish protectorate.
The Don Cossack Host, which had been established by the 16th century,allied with the Tsardom of Russia. Together they began a systematic conquest and colonisation of lands in order to secure the borders on the Volga, the whole of Siberia (see Yermak Timofeyevich) and the Yaik (Ural) and the Terek Rivers. Cossack communities had developed along the latter two rivers well before the arrival of the Don Cossacks.
By the 18th century Cossack hosts in the Russian Empire occupied effective buffer zones on its borders. The expansionist ambitions of the Empire relied on ensuring the loyalty of Cossacks, which caused tension given their traditional exercise of freedom, democracy, self-rule, and independence. Cossacks such as Stenka Razin, Kondraty Bulavin, Ivan Mazepa and Yemelyan Pugachev led major anti-imperial wars and revolutions in the Empire in order to abolish slavery and odious bureaucracy and to maintain independence. The empire responded with ruthless executions and tortures, the destruction of the western part of the Don Cossack Host during the Bulavin Rebellion in 1707–08, the destruction of Baturyn after Mazepa's rebellion in 1708, and the formal dissolution of the Lower Dnieper Zaporozhian Host in 1775, after Pugachev's Rebellion.
Oof, that's it for now...

The Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (Russian SFSR or RSFSR; Russian: Росси́йская Сове́тская Федерати́вная Социалисти́ческая Республика, tr. Rossiyskaya Sovetskaya Federativnaya Sotsialisticheskaya Respublika, IPA: [rɐˈsʲijskəjə sɐˈvʲɛtskəjə fʲɪdʲɪrɐˈtʲivnəjə sətsɨəlʲɪˈsʲtʲitɕɪskəjə rʲɪˈspublʲɪkə] (listen)), previously known as the Russian Soviet Republic and the Russian Socialist Federative Soviet Republic, as well as being unofficially known as the Russian Federation, Soviet Russia, or simply Russia, was an independent state from 1917 to 1922, and afterwards the largest, most populous and most economically developed of the 15 Soviet socialist republics of the Soviet Union (USSR) from 1922 to 1991, then a sovereign part of the Soviet Union with priority of Russian laws over Union-level legislation in 1990 and 1991, during the last two years of the existence of the USSR. The Russian Republic comprised sixteen smaller constituent units of autonomous republics, five autonomous oblasts, ten autonomous okrugs, six krais and forty oblasts. Russians formed the largest ethnic group. The capital of the Russian SFSR was Moscow and the other major urban centers included Leningrad, Novosibirsk, Yekaterinburg, Nizhny Novgorod and Samara.
The economy of Russia became heavily industrialized, accounting for about two-thirds of the electricity produced in the USSR. By 1961, it was the third largest producer of petroleum due to new discoveries in the Volga-Urals region and Siberia, trailing in production to only the United States and Saudi Arabia. In 1974, there were 475 institutes of higher education in the republic providing education in 47 languages to some 23,941,000 students. A network of territorially organized public-health services provided health care. After 1985, the perestroika restructuring policies of the Gorbachev administration relatively liberalised the economy, which had become stagnant since the late 1970s under General Secretary Leonid Brezhnev, with the introduction of non-state owned enterprises such as cooperatives.
The Russian Soviet Republic was proclaimed on 7 November 1917 (October Revolution) as a sovereign state and the world's first constitutionally socialist state with the ideology of Communism. The first Constitution was adopted in 1918. In 1922, the Russian SFSR signed the Treaty on the Creation of the USSR officially setting up of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The 1977 Soviet Constitution stated that Union Republic is a sovereign [...] state that has united [...] in the Union and each Union Republic shall retain the right freely to secede from the USSR. On 12 June 1990, the Congress of People's Deputies adopted the Declaration of State Sovereignty, established separation of powers (instead of Soviet form of government), established citizenship of Russia and stated that the RSFSR shall retain the right of free secession from the USSR. On 12 June 1991, Boris Yeltsin (1931–2007) was elected the first President of the Russian Federation, supported by the Democratic Russia pro-reform movement.
The August 1991 Soviet coup d'état attempt with the temporary brief internment of President Mikhail Gorbachev destabilised the Soviet Union. On 8 December 1991, the heads of Russia, Ukraine and Belarus signed the Belavezha Accords. The agreement declared dissolution of the USSR by its original founding states (i.e. denunciation of 1922 Treaty on the Creation of the USSR) and established the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) as a loose confederation. On 12 December, the agreement was ratified by the Supreme Soviet (the Russian SFSR parliament), therefore Russian SFSR had denounced the Treaty on the Creation of the USSR and de facto declared Russia's independence from the USSR itself and the ties with the other Soviet Socialist Republ ...

How glorious is our Lord on Sion. Gedda wasn't singing anymore at that time. Celebrating his 80 anniversary he was invited to sing as the guest of honour with the choir of Uspensky Cathedral, Helsinki, during Organ Night and Aria Festival. In the past he have been singing a lot with that choir in Helsinki and elsewhere. There was an applause in the middle which I cut off
