WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Infanticide, scheming monks and a tsar falling into madness - Modest Mussorgsky covered a wide range of themes in his choral opera, which he composed from 1868 onwards and with which he attempted to raise awareness of his own time by taking a detour through historical material. As a 19th century artist, he was preoccupied with the psychology of the masses. In Boris Godunov , the Russian people - rejoicing, hungry, demanding and questioning - play the main role alongside the title hero: "To discover the subtle traits of human nature and the human masses, to drill into these unexplored regions and conquer them - that is the mission of the true artist. To new shores!"
