This is the most popular number in the Orchestral Suite that comes from the score Prokofiev wrote for the 1934 Soviet film "Lieutenant Kije." A 'troika' is a three-horse sleigh, so this music is often heard at Christmas time. In this superb 1950s stereo recording, Anatole Fistoulari conducts the Philharmonia Orchestra. (From 'Guild Historical' GHCD 2391).
