We decided to restore and enchance a rare documentary filming of the concert of the famous Russian opera and chamber singer Fyodor Ivanovich Shalyapin (high bass), which took place in August 1918 in the city of Orekhovo-Zuyevo (near Moscow). As dubbing, we decided to use the old Russian romance song “Oh, if I could express it in sound“ performed by the great bass. Music by Loenid Malashkin, lyrics by Grigory Lishin. As a result of the restoration, all the scratches of the original film tape were removed, the playback speed was corrected, and the color correction was made. We hope that you will enjoy the result of our work. The original recording of the filming was published by the Russian State Archive of Film and Photo Documents (RGAKFD) on its channel.

And I would have rested, my dear, Having told you all the suffering. Listening to the cherished sound, Your heart would break. ORIGINAL RUSSIAN LYRICS: О, если б мог выразить в звуке Всю силу страданий моих, В душе твоей стихли бы муки, И ропот сомненья затих. И я б отдохнул, дорогая, Страдание высказав всё. Заветному звуку внимая, Разбилось бы сердце твоё. #FyodorShalyapin #FeodorChaliapin #russiansinger #restoration #documentary -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: ““Here's the Postal Troika Rushing“ - Leonid Kharitonov (1987)“ -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-
