Chaliapin, Feodor b. Feb. 13 [Feb. 1, Old Style], 1873, near Kazan, Russia - d. April 12, 1938, Paris, France original Russian FYODOR IVANOVICH SHALYAPIN, Russian operatic bass whose vivid declamation, great resonance, and dynamic acting made him the best-known singer-actor of his time.

Chaliapin was from a poor family and participated in a local church choir until he was accepted by the local opera company in 1890. Two years later he went to study with Dimitri Usatov in Tiflis (now Tbilisi, Georgia), and in 1896 he became a member of the private Mamontov opera company, where he mastered the Russian, French, and Italian roles that made him famous.

Chaliapin's interpretation of the title role in Modest Mussorgsky's Boris Godunov was his most famous. His major dramatic parts also included Philip II in Giuseppe Verdi's Don Carlos, Ivan the Terrible in Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov's Maid of Pskov, and the title role in Arrigo Boito's Mefistofele. His great comic characterizations were Don Basilio in Gioacchino Rossini's Il barbiere di Siviglia and Leporello in Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Don Giovanni.

Chaliapin appeared at the major opera houses in Milan (1901, 1904), New York City (1907), and London (1913). Unsympathetic to the Bolshevik Revolution, he left the Soviet Union in 1921 and thereafter performed frequently with the Metropolitan and Chicago opera companies in the United States and with Covent Garden in London. He also toured every continent, frequently with his own opera company. Although occasionally considered unorthodox, he was admired as a versatile and expressive recitalist. He made some 200 recordings from 1898 to 1936, starred in the movie Don Quixote (1933), and wrote the autobiographical Pages from My Life (1926) and Man and Mask (1932). In 1984 his remains were disinterred from Batignolles Cemetery in Paris and reburied in the Novodevichy Cemetery in Moscow.
