Rimsky-Korsakov's The Tsar's Bride
Presented by Martin Handley

The Tsar has been looking for a bride, and assembled some 2000 girls for inspection. The one he's taken with is Marfa, but she is already promised in marriage to her childhood sweetheart Ivan. The situation is already complicated enough, but Marfa is also loved by another powerful man, Grigory, who's one of the Tsar's secret police. It's a love-triangle which has all the makings of catastrophe.
