"Schedrin is one of the better-known Russian composers of the later half of the 20th century... His operas demonstrate the most important sides of his work: his taste for the themes of classical Russian literature and his desire to rework elements of Russian music in a 20th-century style. His opera Ne tol ko lyubov ('Not for Love Alone'), based on the stories of Sergey Antonov, was the first piece to incorporate the chastushka into an academic genre of music. This popular Russian folk genre of the 20th century is an aphoristic and melodic formula verse with a topical and humorous subtext." (Valentina Kholopova in Grove Online)
