Shortly after Verdi's "Aida" came out in Cairo, shortly before Wagner's "Ring" cycle premiered in Bayreuth, perhaps the most important Russian opera was launched in St. Petersburg: "Boris Godunov" by Modest Mussorgsky! A story full of violence, dark machinations and amorality: A tsar (Boris Godunov) who could only ascend the throne by murdering his rightful successor, a monk who decides to fight against him and a people groaning under the bludgeon of the police.

The Spanish director Calixto Bieito staged "Boris" at the Bavarian State Opera in an astonishingly discreet manner - as a dark folk drama almost entirely in shades of black and brown; countering pompous tsarist life with the daily violence of the street - certainly with cross-references to current politics.

Together with conductor Kent Nagano, Bieito decided in Munich to bring the "Ur-Boris" to the stage. This version is almost half as short as the much more extensive "Original Boris". Attention is thus drawn to the inner life of a tsar plagued by hallucinations and guilt. ARTE. TV
