Let me remind you that opera is not poetry reading event, it is equilibrium between music and word, and I personally really understand every single word and enjoy the interpretation. May be I can kindly sugest you to read Pushkin and then come back to listen, may be it will give you more understanding and satisfaction of this artistically high level performance. Best!
@@berzubirze No need to suggest Pushkin. Text is extremely important in Tchaikovsky.I read much of Pushkins' poetry and even learnt it by heart. As for this piece I would also recommend you to learn more interpretations to compare.
