This is the only full-length performance of Mussorgsky's opera. Conductor Yuri Simonov conducts the acclaimed Bolshoi Chorus in this fabulous program.
"Khovanshchina is one of Russian opera's infrequently performed masterpieces, a work which has been gaining steadily in popularity in recent years. 'The Khovansky Uprising' (as the title is often translated) is a sprawling tale of the struggle for power in Russia at the beginning of the reign of Peter the Great. This performance, taped 'live' at the Bolshoi Opera in 1979, stars the great Russian bass Yevgeni Nesterenko as Dosifei, the Old Believer at religious and psychological war with the New Order, led by Prince Ivan Khovansky. The manipulative Khovansky is powerfully portrayed here by Alexander Vedernikov, another of the world's great basses, little known outside of the Soviet Union. Marfa, one of Dosifei's followers and a fortune teller, is sung by the legendary mezzo-soprano Irina Arkhipova in a performance of great authority and dignity. Russian opera at the Bolshoi is the genuine article, and the remainder of the cast is equally impressive, from the mistrusting Prince Galitsyn of Yevgeny Raikov to the clever, informing Shaklovity of Vladislav Romanovsky. |
