Grove music online, viewed May 24, 2013: (Khovanshchina (op, 5, Musorgsky), 1872-80; in June 1872, Musorgsky was starting to plan Khovanshchina (The Khovansky affair), a grand historical opera dealing with the political turmoil attendant on Peter the Great's full accession to the throne...the last manuscripts of Khovanshchina are dated August 1880, by which time he had completed, in vocal score, everything but the end of Act 2 and the Old believers' chorus with which the opera was to end (though he had transcribed its melody in 1874))
