It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

I don't know Kastchey but want to get to know it

I'm planning a traversal of Russian opera sometime in the future. I've actually seen Kitezh live twice, The second performance, again by the Kirov at Lincoln Center, was a pale shadow of the first.

This is out of place on an LvB thread, but I heard Prokofiev's "Betrothal at a Monastery" at the Met over a decade ago. I went for social reasons, expecting the opera to be socialist realist snoozerola, and I was surprised to find it a wonderful opera. Amphissa probably has 5 recordings of it :)
