We all “hang suspended” listening to your performance. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 This reworking of the Prince Igor ballet music for popular musical theatre audiences is very special. As a teenager ‘spear carrier’ chorus member at Malvern Festival Theatre, years ago, I listened each night of the run to the principals’ rendition of this ‘big’ number. Only in later years hearing the opera itself with my late father-in-law Eric Green (Bass) as the Khan. 🌝
Here I am, obsessed with this Borodin melody for months, attempting in vain to play by ear the intro from Kismet - “oh why do the leaves of the mulberry tree whisper differently now?” - and then this appears in my feed, wonderful! 👏🏻 Please let me know where you sourced the arrangement. If it is your own, is it available for download? I’m a big fan of your channel Iryna, thank you for sharing so much! :)

I just got it from singers. One of them left the comment here (Olivier), maybe you ask him, if he has a pdf? I have only paper
2:22 Caliph start
0:00 Intro
1:08 Song
Kismet, yes, but originally from Prince Igor Polovtsian Dances by Alexander Borodin. Beautiful both ways
I know 🤪 I will write it too. It’s just the version from Kismet
Intro too long
