Description

Borodin’s most famous composition is the opera “Prince Igor”, on which he worked for nearly twenty years. It was never finished until after his death, when his composer friends, Rimsky-Korsakov and Alexander Glazunow, completed it. It contains wonderful melodies that remind the listener of old Russia. The “Polovtsian Dances” from “Prince Igor” supplied the melody for a famous 20th century popular song, “Stranger in Paradise”.
