The Story in Images

Two generations. One art form. Thirty years of stages between us.

My father, Valery Egudin, was a dramatic tenor and People's Artist of the USSR. He performed Otello, Radames, and Hermann on the stage of the Novosibirsk Opera and Ballet Theatre for over thirty years. I grew up in the wings.
