Sweeping melodies and wistfully passionate arias provide the backdrop to this story of thwarted love, duelling rivals and twisted romance. The stark divide between country and courtly life in 19th-century Russia is illustrated by the dramatic transformation of Tatyana, whose rejection by Onegin sets the scene for this emotive journey.
