Ruslan & Lyudmila
Posted by Matthew Conroy on March 19, 2021, 8:54 pm
I've recently become quite taken with Glinka's operas, especially the evocative Ruslan & Lyudmila. I was lucky enough to stumble across a more or less mint Meoldiya vinyl box set of the the 1952 Kondrashin recording and I can't put it down. Extraordinary singing from Nelepp, Lemeshev and Firsova in particular. Really wish this composer's operas were better known outside of Russia. There is so much to love.
