Darth Vader visits Moscow, performs ‘The Imperial March’ ON A BALALAIKA

He may have lived and died a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, but Darth Vader—Sith Lord and Supreme Commander of the Imperial Fleet—reappeared briefly in Moscow earlier this month to stage a small outdoor musical performance. Honoring Russia's local customs, Vader played his theme song, The Imperial March, composed by John Williams, on a balalaika.

The performance appears to have been part of a promotional campaign by the gift store Prosto Tak, as stated in the caption on a YouTube video filmed from a higher elevation.
