The usual name of the opera in English is Khovanshchina. At least this is how the Met does it. I have proposed this, and not one has objected. Thus it happens.
1) Kuzka is not a baritone but a tenor. 2) Stravisky has made a final Chorus. It's not a matter of belief at all! Moreover, he and Ravel made an entire version of their own but apart of the finale it is lost.

It says here that the great basso, Chaliapin, sang the role of Dosifey in 1886. But how could he sing this part at the age of 13?! I know that Chaliapin has sung this role in the first PROFESSIONAL performance in 1897, but I suspect he had nothing to do with the premiere in 1886. AdamChapman ( talk) 10:48, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Since there is no reference to a reliable source, the last paragraph of the lede comes off sounding like original thought or simply opining, contrary to Wikipedia policy. Is there any way to source this? If not, I believe it has to go. Heimstern Läufer (talk) 02:16, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
