Vladimir Kudashev added the image of the barbarian invaders’ leader with a keen eye, an ironic smile and enticing, kind of “cat” intonations”, music critics say about the artist’s performance of the role. His partner on the stage will be the ex-soloist of the Krasnoyarsk Opera and now the Yekaterinburg Opera and Ballet Theatre artist, Sergei Osovin who’ll perform the part of Vladimir Igorevich. Also, our soloists will come on stage - Svetlana Ratslaf-Levchuk, Anna Gichik, Alexey Bocharov, Dmitri Ryabtsev, Nikolai Mishenev and others.
