Igor's Campaign

If you're an opera fan.....come on now I know EVERYONE is right?!! OK I'm kidding but actually Borodin's Prince Igor is not one of the worst. I found the original poem it was based on here:

and here's the audio - I won't torture you with registering on the Ukrainian site that has it. Hopefully the link will be good for a while at least.

and the beautiful thing about it is not only does it have the english translation but also the original Slavic language it was written in (Pre-Russian if you will). Very interesting and a classic. Check out the site too looks like they have a ton of really interesting resources for classic literature.
