If I understand correctly (based upon the really inadequate in-browser translations and my limited grasp of the orthography), a Russian entity at some point in the recent past--or possibly present--made a musical of the Russian fanfic The Black Book of Arda?

After reading the other comments, I had to look for this on YouTube myself. I found Curumo's aria! (I may kind of be snickering at him right now. But I am also jealous because now I want to be in a musical opera based on Tolkien. That would be awesome.)

YES IT WOULD. One of my more indulgent daydreams is of being in the LotR musical.
