About
I'm working on my PhD thesis about Russian opera in European context, 1836-1900. I'm interested in the the influence of Italian and French opera's and operatic conventions in Russia, and musical relations between Russia and Western Europe in general. So far I have worked on case studies centering on Glinka's A Life for the Tsar and Rusland & Lyudmila, and Rimsky-Korsakov's The Tsar's Bride.
