Iosif Andriasov: "Autumn", Op. 8 for Mixed Choir a cappella Music Score.

In 1957, Iosif Andriasov composed the “Autumn” for three-voice Choir a cappella (two parts for Sopranos and Altos). In the end of 1960s, Evgeny Sinitzin wrote the poetry to the choir’s music. In 1994, Iosif Andriasov made a final revision of the “Autumn” and arranged it for four-voice Mixed Choir a cappella. 

“Среди берёз и сосен                   “Among the birches and pines,
Опять гуляет осень…                    Again the autumn is wandering around…
Земля насквозь промокла,           The ground was wet through,
Дожди стучатся в окна.                 Rain drops are knocking on the windows.

А мы открыли двери,                     But we opened the doors,
О тёплых днях мечтая!                  Dreaming of warmer days!
А мы всё больше верим,               But we believe more and more
Что осень золотая!”                       That the autumn is golden!”
