He was named People’s Artist of the USSR in 1974 and the Hero of Socialist Labour in 1990.Моцарт и Сальери (Mozart and Salieri - 1962) directed by Vladimir GorierA one-act opera in two scenes by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, written in 1897 to a Russian libretto taken almost verbatim from Alexander Pushkin’s 1830 verse drama of the same name. The story follows the apocryphal legend that Antonio Salieri poisoned Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart out of jealousy over the latter’s music. Rimsky-Korsakov incorporated quotations from Mozart’s Requiem and Don Giovanni into the score. Richard Taruskin has placed this opera in the historical context of the development of the realistic tradition in Russian opera. [Wikipedia] -- source link
