Events take place in 1572 in Alexandrovskaya Sloboda - the capital of oprichnina, where Ivan the Terrible lived for a long time. The composer himself attributed the "Tsar's Bride" to his best works. This is one of Galina Vishnevskaya's most beloved operas, she shone in the role of Martha in the Bolshoi Theater and even put it together with Mstislav Rostropovich in 1986 in the famous Monte Carlo Opera House.

Directed by the director of the Tsar's Bride, Ivan Popovsky, one of the most vivid and popular contemporary artists, performed at the Center for Opera Singing. "I really like how he did it," Galina Vishnevskaya, the art director of the production, said in an interview with Rossiyskaya Gazeta. - Highly! There is also a conventionality, and at the same time there is no imposition of an alien. There is a view, but the era is preserved, it is very important! " The premiere of the "Tsar's Bride" took place in October 2003 and since then the opera has firmly entered the repertoire, having received the highest ratings from both the public and music critics and the press. In addition to his own stage, "The Tsar's Bride" was represented in the "Volga Tour" project in the framework of the A.Sakharov Festival in Nizhny Novgorod, as well as in Kazan, Ulyanovsk and Samara; At the International Festival "May Opera Evenings" in Skopje (Macedonia), the Russian festival "New Peredvizhnik". "Director Ivan Popovsky synthesized in his production of psychology with a traditional operatic convention. Actors demonstrate a real theater of experience in their arias and arioso. ... The ensembles sound clear, the timbres merge well, and that, in general, a rarity in the opera, every word is heard. " The newspaper Moskovsky Komsomolets "The soloists sing perfectly, but the action of the tragedy, oddly enough, does not slow down, attention somehow cleverly switches to flying music." The newspaper "Evening Moscow"
