Name of the Alfred Schnittke piece
Hi there!
Could anyone post the name of wonderful piece of music that appears through out the film. I know only it is Alfred Schnittke. And can't find it anywhere.
Thank you for help.
But incidentally the dear friend of mine sent me yesterday the links to the scenes from the film posted on YouTube. The original music by Alfred Schnitke does indeed sound through entire film but I believe that it is the finest in the episode "Flight". Enjoy:

"It is absurd to divide people into good and bad. People are either charming or tedious."
Actually this wonderful piece of music Mitta managed to use twice. Once in the brilliant "Skazka" and then in his 1988 feature "Shag" ("The live vaccine").
In the very end of the movie Leonid Filatov's character, a scientist, while burning alive, drugs a wooden box full of vaccine against poliomyelitis, brought to save Japanese children in 1959. This piece fit perfectly there just as well as it did in "Skazka Stranstviy".
Truly magnificent music, makes you want to soar.

shareIts title is "Polyot" (or Flight) - We all should've guessed, shouldn't we?
You can find the titles of this and the others soundtracks from "Skazka Stranstviy" and the others films with Schnitke's music on many sites. These are just two:

THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!! GOD, I don't know if words can describe this music.
I have goosebumps when I listen to it.
BRILLIANT, ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT!!!!
Too bad Shnitke was not appreciated enough back in Soviet Union and had to move to Germany. He is a genius.
