very beautiful performance, great Nesternko,Yaroslavtzev ,I lov this opera for decades

It just finished and now I already want to watch it again from the start! фантастический!!

i love it too. i have watched this alot!!

I love Mussorgski's music, from his beatiful "Pictures from an Exhibition" to his magnificent "Boris Godunov"... for me the next will be "Khovanshchina"

Thank you, Radames- very appreciative of your posting this quintessentially Russian opera- magnificent

Så har man sett hela operan gånger ett antal gånger, något av beroendegift i det

This is spectacular

Bravo Nestrenko!

Грандиозно, давно не видел такого основательного подхода в Большом. Надеюсь, во всем виноват ремонт - на новой сцене им сейчас явно тесно. Очень гармоничная опера, музыка Мусоргского гениальна и при этом понятна в действии оперы.

It is a very famous recording, available everywhere I think. you can also order it. Search in Google! :) Or download on the Emule

@PilarCanto Thank you very much for this comment! :) I would suggest you to start with "Evgeniy Onegon" by Tchaikovsky (more "western Russian" style compering to Musorgsky Operas). Then Look at "Khovanshchina" (Mussorgsky) - Heavy but great opera! And some Rimsky Korsakov stuff (Tsar's bride, May night - you can first look at the Uverturas of the operas here on youtube, as a "trailer" :) Enjoy!! :)) Dmitry

what a great video. where did it came from? i think it is not abailable in argentina.

That came from the glorious days of Bolshoi, when it used to be one of the best opera companies in the world. In 2010 they toured to Madrid with a ridicolous and unlistenable male cast: Andrew Goodwin, Vassily Ladyuk and Alexander Naumenko , conducted by the EXTREMELY BORING Dimitri Jurowkski. Months after I saw this Boris and I cried of emotion and both of anger, since these times are history in today's Bolshoi.
