The Russian [[folk music|folk song]] "Korobeiniki" (''Коробе́йники'', "the peddlers") was used as the default background music for early ''Tetris'' games, and is associated with the franchise to such a degree that, outside of Russia, it is often simply referred to as the "Tetris Theme". Other songs that have been used in the game include Ivan Larionov's "Kalinka", [[Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky|Tchaikovsky]]'s "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy", and a movement from [[Johann Sebastian Bach|Bach]]'s French Suite No. 3.
