The Russian <a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folk_dance&quot; title=&quot;Folk dance">folk dance</a> theme commemorates the battle beating back Napoleon. The retreat from Moscow late in October 1812 is reflected by a <a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diminuendo&quot; title=&quot;Diminuendo">diminuendo</a>. The firing of <a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannon&quot; title=&quot;Cannon">cannon</a>reflects the military advances toward the French borders. With theconflict over, we return to the chant, this time performed by the fullorchestra with a peal of bells for the victory and the liberation ofRussia from French occupation.

The Russian anthem is a counterpart to the French anthem that was heard earlier.<br />
