Search at Tower Records reveals the following, of which only the last
version that is in stock and available.  The second is a special order
item, and the first is no longer available.  It is the version that I
have, and enjoy it for what it is.  Is really not much more than a pretty,
politically directed choral work that praises Stalin.  Terribly tonal,
nothing to offend or challenge.  Not classic DSCH!
