That song is from the musical Kismet, which was based on the music of Alexander Borodin. This is the "Gliding Dance of the Maidens," from the Polovtsian dances in his opera Prince Igor, 1890. Here's the short version:

And for those who can do eleven minutes, here's the full version:

Borodin was a chemist by profession--music was his hobby (! ! !), and he was also an advocate of women's rights, who opened a private medical school for women.

Elvis was always at his best singing Gospel, I think!

Another version of the same song - this time by Katherine Jenkins and Andrea Bocelli - 'I Believe' ...

Hi, people. I'm home again. I like the music of today. You'll never walk Alone has many versions. I think the Roy Hamilton record is my favorite.
