Vinogradov after "The Tale of Igor's Campaign". In 1797, the first reports appeared about the discovery of a manuscript containing a collection of works, among them The Tale of Igor's Campaign. It was published three years later. However, in 1812, during the Fire of Moscow, the manuscript was destroyed. Fortunately, a handwritten copy survived along with printed copies of The Tale, a work regarded as the most exemplary monument to ancient Russian literature. By analyzing the content of the story, researchers established the date of its creation as 1187, but the name of its brilliant writer remains to this day unknown. The Tale had a strong impact on the development of modern culture, inspiring scientists, writers, translators, artists and composers. The first to come to mind is, of course, the opera Prince Igor by A. P. Borodin. Approximately one hundred years later, a new musical interpretation appears, in a genre seemingly rather far-removed from epic literature - choreography. The premiire of B. I. Tishchenko's ballet Yaroslavna took place on June 30, 1974 at the Leningrad Academic Malyi Theater of Opera and Ballet. OrchestraContents:M. Bialik.
