This opera is based on a play by Pushkin. It was finished by Cui and was orchestrated by Rimsky-Korsakov. In this work natural human speech is combined with subtle intonation within the frame of vocal dialogue. There are no traditional ensembles, choruses and arias apart from two songs sung by Laura. Recorded in 1972.
