[[Vasily Prokunin]]'s collection of '''''65 Russian Folksongs''''' (65 русских народных песен), was revised and edited by Tchaikovsky at the compiler's request in 1872 and 1873 ([[TH]] 183 ; [[ČW]] 401).

==Instrumentation==
Scored for solo voice with piano accompaniment (2 hands). However, 'Rise Up, Rise Up, O Sun' (No. 32) and 'My Mountains' (No. 65) have parts for two voices, while 'The Little Grey Dove' (No. 37) has parts for chorus and soloist.

==Movements and Duration==
For the titles (and incipits) of all 65 songs, see ''[[The Tchaikovsky Handbook]]'', volume 1 (2002), p. 371-377.

==History==
No information survives concerning the date or origins of this work. [[Vasily Prokunin]] was a student of Tchaikovsky's at the [[Moscow]] Conservatory, and it might be supposed that he asked his professor for help in editing and reworking the songs. Nos. 1 to 33 were completed by 27 May/8 June 1872, and Nos. 34 to 65 were completed by 15/27 May 1873 <ref name="note1"/>.

==Publication==
The songs were published in two parts by [[Pyotr Jurgenson]]: Part 1 (songs 1–33) in 1872, and part 2 (songs 34–65) in 1873.

All 65 songs were published in {{bibx|1949/34|volume 61}} of Tchaikovsky's ''[[Complete Collected Works]]'' (1949), edited by Sofya Ziv.

==Autographs==
A manuscript score of the songs in [[Prokunin]]'s collection, evidently made by [[Karl Albrecht]], containing Tchaikovsky's notes and corrections, is now preserved in the {{RUS-Mcm}} in [[Moscow]] {{TOW2|russkie-narodnye-pesni-dlya-odnogo-golosa-s-fortepiano-sobrannye-i-perelozhennye-v-p-prokuninym-pod-redakciey-professora-p-i-chaykovskogo|(ф. 88, No. 150)}}.
