Yep, the main news theme from the VGTRK Russia-1 channel - although they remixed it further from this not too far before they pressed into Ukraine. Interesting to see it… just released on Bandcamp like that at the original time.
From a musical standpoint, it’s great, although its use as a news theme ends up slightly curious as a result; trying to make the headlines almost look more like a drama than it perhaps should (or at least the revised version does). That said, orchestral themes have sorta been a Russian specialty in cases (Vremya’s being the classic example, of course).
