As one day M.Glinka found a new path in the art and chose Russian fairy-tale for creation of opera masterpiece, as today producers of “Ruslan and Ludmila” opera also followed a new path. It will be a view of a modern person to a fairy-tale plot of classic opera - a combination of real life and fairy-tale fantasy with saving of all academic art traditions and norms.
