5.0 out of 5 stars Echt Russian, 4 Oct 2009
By Ralph Moore (Bishop's Stortford, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I have always loved this recording and fail to understand why some critics have been so sniffy about it. The sound has been cleaned up very attractively; the bathroom acoustic has been tamed and it is now far less boxy. It is a wholly authentic, energised performance featuring a great Russian cast, orchestra and conductor; the music fairly leaps out of the speakers and the performers understand perfectly the idiom required: nothing too refined or precious but earthy and abandoned. The cast is the best that could be assembled by the Bolshoi in the late 60's and that is really good: the stentorian Atlantov, ringing of voice, veteran singers Ivan Petrov and Artur Eisen reminding us what real Russian basses sound like, and Obratsova rising to poetic heights in Konchakovna's haunting cavatina. OK, Tugarinova has a touch of the steam-whistle about her voice but it's a true, powerful soprano. The chorus sing lustily and really bring their music alive. This set makes first rate entertainment of Borodin's sprawling, incomplete work and in a field not especially well served by recordings this version stands head and shoulders above the rest.
