Sadko - Song of India (Gegam Grigorian).VOB

[windstorm1000]

why they don't play this at the MET is beyond me. I adore all of RK's music--so colorful, exotic--takes one to another place--as good music should.

I love both the music and the choreography. Ending with the image of the goddess Durga Devi was a brilliant touch. I am hard pressed to choose a favorite composer, but Rimsky-Korsakov would probably be that choice. His use of folk elements combined with mysticism produced works that are nothing short of enchanting.

Great. One of my absolute favorites.

It's wonderful to hear a singer who has such a specific point of view in his interpretation. The aria really comes alive in this performance.

Thank you for posting a wonderful excerpt from this staging of Sadko! I would really like to see the whole perfomance - is this from a dvd and could you post its particulars so I can try and buy a copy. Thanks! - R. in Toronto Canada

[joejoe4812]

@aguacun He's alive and well..

[SDCmorg]

Grigorian's still around, but quite slowed down at age 58.

@joanabanyeres Would you be aware of a complete Otello with Gregorian? He was definitely Atlantov's successor!
