Synopsis

Reception
The New York Times noted that although "as a movie, “Prince Igor” naturally is not standard screen fare", "it entertainingly succeeds in avoiding the static, stagy look of many previously filmed operas."[2]
The singing and the dancing were also praised. Harlow Robinson in the Opera Quarterly: "The vocal cast contains two real stars—Nesterenko (Khan Konchak) and Milashkina (Yaroslavna)—both of whom turn in soulful, resonant performances that shine through the less than ideal sound quality. That same high performance level is maintained by the rest of the cast. "[3]
