Title: Great in all respects
Review: Personally, I'd rather listen to a bad KHOVANSHCHINA than a good BORIS. BORIS is a cliche. KHOVANSHCHINA is a thriller. You never really figure out enough of what's going on to experience a climax, but it's so interesting. Like Kafka. Or the TV series Twin Peaks.This is a wonderful recording, conducted with insight, and with one of those dream-casts where every role is perfectly cast plus there are several unique-insight interpretations, including: Aage Haugland as Knyaz Ivan Khovansky, Paata Burchuladze's legendary Dosefei, Anatoly Kotcherga's gorgeous big round passionate, dedicated Shakelovity.
