[Based on 12th century Russian epic poem Slovo o Polku Igoreve, Borodin’s opera “Prince Igor,” left uncompleted at the composer’s death, owes its final form to Nicolas-Rimsky-Korsakoff and Alexander Glazounoff: the former was responsible for the orchestration of the prologue, the first, second, and fourth acts as well as the “Polovtsian marches” from the third act; Glazounoff completed and orchestrated all the remaining parts of the third act on the basis of the composer’s sketches.Borodin did not complete a libretto before composing the music to Prince Igor. The opera has traditionally been performed in the edition made by Rimsky-Korsakov and Glazunov.] #CuttleboneBooks #bookcollecting #instabooks #instaread #readersofinstagram #booksforsale #booksale #BooksBooksBooks #Books #bookstagram #collectiblebooks #bibliophile #Drama #Theatre #DramaClub #MusicalTheatre #Polovtsian #Cuman #IgorSvyatoslavich #ClassicalMusic #ThePolovtsianDanceNumberTwoByBorodin #KievanRus #Opera #Libretto #TheLayOfIgorsHost #VladimirStasov #NikolaiRimskyKorsakov #AnatolyLyadov #AlexanderGlazunov
