(ANSA) - MILAN, NOV 10 - Ukraine's consul in Milan on
Thursday asked La Scala not to open its season this year with
the Russian opera Boris Godunov to avert possible propaganda
uses of the Mussorgsky classic. Consul Adrii Kartysh has written
to the superintendent of La Scala Dominique Meyer, to the mayor
of Milan Giuseppe Sala and to the governor of Lombardy Attilio
Fontana to ask to "review" the theater's programming, not
inaugurating the season on December 7 with Boris Godunov, and
also avoiding other Russian shows so as not to pander to "any
propaganda elements", the consult said in a statement. (ANSA).
