I don't think he's being imperialist. Odessa was part of Russia for the first 30 years of his life. It's not a conscious thing, not everyone always remembers in conversation that a place like Odessa is no longer part of their country. I know people from Moldova who say they're "going back to Russia" when they visit their home. They grew up Russian so they think of their home as part of Russia.

I think he only responded to her saying that Odessa was in Russia being polite.
What was he supposed to do? Was he supposed to give her a crush course on geography and politics? Or was he supposed to correct her in the most unfriendly way? I guess he just stuck to what she said and anyway the conversation was definitely not about geography after all :))

my dream pairing would be to hear Beverly Sills and DH sing this opera--alas, it will never be. Renee Fleming will just have to do;)

She is drawing him on Pushkin's verse and literary analysis, and he is all about music.

do you notice the interview has been taken in 1993. it was only 2 year after SU crashed. i think, in that time all ex-SU towns were Russian cities. They spoke Russian but thought Soviet. Because it needs to have a long time to change your habbits

ODESSA IS AN UKRANIAN CITY! I'm not ukrainian, i'm from Romania and it seemed to me like Hvorostovsky was a bit like a russian imperialist. Odessa also has lot's of romanians and greeks, and to be fair, Odessa is much near to Romania or the ex-romanian territory, then to Ukraine ....
