BORIS GODUNOV - Nesterenko, Arkhipova - Bolshoi, 1978, English subtitles, Годунов, Большой
Descripción en Youtube:
This epic opera based on Pushkin's play is notoriously difficult to stage in the West. Powerful music is inseparable from as powerful classic Russian, language carrying the same load as notes. This version from Bolshoi may be the best forging of the two existing on video, and Godunov of Nesterenko is one of the starkest 'Pushkin magnitude' interpretations of the role. Details below.
