boris godunov transposition of a
The tale of Boris Godunov—tsar, usurper, tsarecide—dating from the early seventeenth-century Time of Troubles, inspired three major nineteenth-century Russian cultural expressions: in history by Nikolai Karamzin, in drama by Alexander Pushkin, and in opera by Modest Musorgsky. Each of these famous creations was a vehicle for generic innovation, in which a specifically Russian concept of genre was asserted in opposition to the reigning European models: German historiography, French melodrama, and Italian opera. Within a Bakhtinian framework, Caryl Emerson explores these three versions of the Boris Tale, the context of their genesis, and their [...]. details

boris
Martti Talvela as the tormented tsar, Nicolai Gedda as his adversary and (historically, but not in the opera) short-lived successor Grigory, and Aage Haugland in the small but comically rich role of the monk Varlaam give particularly fine and distinctive performances in a generally good but not outstanding production. But the chief interest of this recording, dating from 1976, is that it is the first one to present Boris as imagined by Mussorgsky rather than in the Rimsky-Korsakov revision.
