Sadko (Russian: Садко) is a 1897 opera by Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov, based on legends and songs about the eponymous character.Sadko, a poor gusli player, dreams of becoming a seafaring merchant and bringing riches and glory to his native Novgorod, but the other merchants mock him. However, Princess Volkhova, the daughter of the Sea-King, is enchanted by his songs and falls in love with him. When she appears to him, he is enamored and, despite being already married, pledges himself to her. With Volkhova's help, he is able to catch magical gold-finned fish in Lake Ilmen and can finally finance his expeditions.Twelve years later, his ship is caught in a storm, and when the sailors draw lots, they realize the Sea-King wants Sadko to be thrown overboard. Sadko isn't frightened, since he knows Volkhova is waiting for him. He delights the Sea-King with his song and gets the permission to marry Volkhova.The underwater kingdom's merry wedding feast causes horrible storms above, so a mysterious Ancient suddenly appears, tells the Sea-King his rule is over, and commands Volkhova to turn into a river forever in Novgorod.Volkhova and Sadko resurface (literally) in Novgorod, she bids farewell to him and turns into the Volkhov River. Sadko returns to his mortal wife and (probably because Volkhova is lost to him for good) is a lot nicer to her than before, and Novgorod now has a waterway. Tropes featured in the opera:
