metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: In the N. A. Rimskii-Korsakov’s legacy there are operas that seem to be in the shadow of his
  great creations; among them is the opera Pan Voyevoda (1903) to a libretto by I. F. Tyumenev
  (without using any historical or literary source). The opera was the result of the composer’s
  long-cherished plan to create an opera on a Polish plot, so that in it “there would be no place
  for politics or national enmity”. Romantic events that took place in the 16th–17th centuries
  are presented in many respects in the traditional musical solution, which does not exclude
  the presence of bright dramatic situations, dramatic alignment, magnificent melodies, famous
  national dances. The surviving documents: letters, memoirs of both authors, as well as autographs
  of the libretto, clavier (partially) and scores from the archives of St Petersburg allow
  us to recreate the process of working on the work. The main time of work on the musical text
  was in the summer of 1902, when the composer left for Heidelberg to live with his son. The
  execution of several other creative works in parallel, including the re-interpretation of the
  Stone Guest by A. S. Dargomyzhsky, did not interfere with the active process of working on Pan
  Voyevoda. The first three acts of the four (the last act is very short) were written in less than
  three months, and during the winter and spring of 1903 N. A. Rimsky-Korsakov performed
  the orchestration. Musical autographs show how the work was carried out: the text of the libretto
  was clarified, sometimes expanded or shortened, the composition of the characters was
  determined, intonation and harmonic variants were introduced, the orchestration changed,
  and so on. The composer strenuously searched for optimal means of expression, creating a
  national color and a special “timeless aura” of Polish antiquity. It is no coincidence that the
  composer marked on the title page a dedication to the Memory of Frédéric Chopin.
