Russian Tango

[sophie solomon <sophiesolomon...>]

Hi
This isn't strictly a Jewish music enquiry...but I'm hoping that someone can 
help me to shed some light....
I'm trying to discover the origin of the tango,'Utomlyennie 
Sol'ntsem',(Burnt by the Sun), that forms the theme music for Nikita 
Mikhalkov's movie of the same name.  Does anyone know whether this is a 
traditional song, or if it was written specifically for the movie?  I am 
somewhat confused since an arrangement of the piece appears on Gidon 
Kremer's Homage a Piazolla cd (HIGHLY recommended by the way....) which is 
credited to one Jerzy Peterbushsky....
Any pointers gratefully received!!
Sophie
