Fedor Chaliapin ... The legendary singer, who conquered the whole world-Mariinsky and Bolshoi Theaters, Metropolitan Opera, Shattle Theater, Covent Garden. Tall, stately, with expressive facial features, a piercing look, he made my impression in his best tragic roles - Melnik, Boris Godunov, Mephistopheles, Don Quixote. Chaliapin shocked the audience with a frantic temperament, always found accurate and sincere intonations for each word of the song, organically and reliably held on the stage. Fans of his talent were composers Sergey Prokofiev and Anton Rubinstein, actor Charlie Chaplin and the future English king Edward VI.
The book “Mask and Soul” F.I. Chaliapin wrote and released in Paris a decade after emigration. In it, he said that he had hidden from the public for so long - about his life in Russia, about the people with whom fate was reduced, about the bitter share of the exile, about the longing for his homeland. The reader will find here the artist’s soulful thoughts about art, theater, stage - how he was preparing for concerts, what he thought about and what he experienced, fulfilling the arias, how he reacted to criticism and reviews about his performances. The mask of the illustrious singer opens the soul of a man who devoted his whole life to art
