Mieczyslaw Weinbergs 1986/1987 entstandene letzte Oper Der Idiot verdichtet Dostojewskis Roman zu einer sprunghaften Folge von Bildern auf einer Simultanbühne, die auch epische Kommentare einschließt. Bis vor nicht allzu langer Zeit nahezu vergessen, ist Weinberg dank einer beeindruckenden Renaissance in den letzten Jahrzehnten mittlerweile als einer der wichtigsten Komponisten Russlands neben Schostakowitsch und Prokofieff anerkannt. Die nun wiederaufgelegte Produktion bei PAN CLASSICS darf zweifellos zu den Höhepunkten der wachsenden Weinberg-Diskografie gezählt werden.
