I've loved this recording for 32 years. I understand only a few phrases in the Russian language, but that doesn't matter when Chaliapin is singing. He MAKES the listener feel the emotion in every piece he performs --- and that high mezza-voce at the end of the recording is beyond amazing:) --
Oh Gott, ist das schön, selten so berührenden Gesang gehört!
