Listen to a Sample:
Pros:
- This performance of A Life for the Tsar is sung in Italian, and although that might seem incongruous with Glinka's Russian roots, it highlights the very clear bel canto influence in his music.
- A young Virginia Zeani shines in the role of Antonida and Boris Christoff (no stranger to playing Tsars) lends his authoritative bass to the title role.
Cons:
- None to mention.
