    We’re studying Mussorgsky in music at the moment... just trying to imagine how our teacher would react if she came into the room and this song was blaring through her speakers.

    I was actually just searching for some clips of the old Baba Yaga films I watched as a kid on TV, and I found this. Not only was there lucky enough to be raised on Baba Yaga films, but I also grew up on metal. This was perhaps the most metal thing I've ever heard in my life, and it warmed my heart hearing the theme song done this way. 😁👍🏻

      Yep, well Baba Yaga finishes with that long run of 16ths notes and goes straight into the Great Gate of Kiev, so I figured I might do that bit too ;-)

      Actually, the original name of this music is "Hut On Chickens' Legs" , not Baba Yaga. In Russian folklore the "Hut On Chickens' Legs" is the name of the house where Baba Yaga lives.

      You're absolutely right! But since the original Baba Yaga goes straight into the Gate of Kiev after that crazy chromatic run I couldn't stop there... I decided to shorten the "Gate" part because the original is mostly the same melody & chords but with different instrumentations, which I couldn't do here. I hope you liked it!
