Oy Shcho zh to za Shum (Oh, What's the Buzz?)
This folk song recounts a comic folk tale of a mosquito and a fly. They marry but soon separate on account of the bride's inability to keep house. Tragically, the mosquito is inadvertently killed by a gust of wind. (Source: Kobzari Ukrainian Folk Ensemble. cp1976. Monitor Records. MFS 779. Liner notes.)
