(23) orgue de barbarie In the heading to “Chanson populaire” (No. 14, p. 129), Kamarinskaya is the title of a traditional dance-song in Russian folk literature, probably referring to a village or region, In the heading to “La sorciére” (No. 20, p. 136), Baba-Yiga refers to the ogress in Russian folklore who steals, cooks and eats her victims, usually children. A guardian of the fountains of the water of life, she lives with two or three sisters (all called Baba Yaga) in a spinning hut [with chicken’s feet] in the forest, and can ride through the air— sometimes in a mortar that she drives with a pestle—creating tempests as she goes.
