The author says that as far as he knows, what is amazing about the music recording Boris in addition to the music itself is the fact that the first version was completed by a man of thirty, the second by a man of thirty-two, who had had no formal, professional musical education, and who, it is relevant to note, had had an onset of delirium tremens at twenty-six. But what is perhaps even more amazing about the music recording Khovantchina is that it was produced in the later years of this man's life.
