I've searched Google endlessly and I still can't turn this up. I'm looking for translations of Prokofiev's "Alexander Nevsky", a glorious contemporary piece of music. But of course, since Prokofiev was Russian (as I believe, Alexander Nevsky was, too correct me if I'm wrong), all the vocal parts of the piece are in Russian, and I would love to understand what they're singing.

Any help? Thanks guys.

Assuming you have the lyrics in a text format in russian/french/italian/spanish somewhere....you can cut and paste the words in the link below for a decent translation.


BabelFish!

the BabelFish! translation is not very good (especially with lyrics) . Better to find a human being to do the job.

i can give it a whirl, where can i get an mp3 of this stuff

I doubt you'll want to; it's 7 movements, 40 minutes long or so.
