having never heard/seen Khovanshchina (all I knew of Mussorgsky was Night on Bald Mountain!), your essay inspired me to take a long listen (via Spotify - how easily we can do this now… find and hear most anything, immediately… not so helpful to artists, given the shamefully meagre renumeration for each stream, but so helpful for the rest of us) - really enjoyed it, the whole ‘mess’!
