Interesting facts about Russian America - (Yunona i Avos)
After recently watching rock opera Yunona i Avos (Юнона и Авось) I thought
it would be interesting to read in depth about the historical aspect of the story
behind it and mainly about Explorers of Russian America. It was
interesting to learn that Rock Opera as a concept was prohibited in 1978 in
Soviet Union and it was called Modern Opera when idea of Yunona & Avos was
presented and executed a few years later.

Although he was received with great courtesy and entertained night and
day by the Californians, no time was lost in informing him that the laws of
Spain forbade the colonies to trade with foreign powers, and that the governor
of all the Californias was incorruptible. Had it not been for a love affair
with Concepción Argüello (Conchita), the daughter of the comandante of San
Francisco, Don José Darío Argüello, and for his diplomatic skill, with which he
won over the clergy, Rezanov would have failed.

He died of fever and exhaustion in Krasny Yar (now Krasnoyarsk),
Siberia, on March 8, 1807. On October 28, 2000, at Rezanov’s grave in the
Trinity churchyard of Krasnoyarsk (where according to one account his remains
were moved in the late 1950s) there was a service for the dead and the
dedication of a memorial to Rezanov. It is a white cross, bearing on one side
the inscription “Nickolai Petrovich Rezanov 1764 - 1807. I will never forget
you”, and on the other side - “Maria Concepcion de Arguelio 1791 - 1857. I will
see you never more”.
This story became the subject of Concepcion de
Arguello, a ballad by Francis Bret Harte, and a 1937 novel, Rezánov and
Doña Concha, by the largely forgotten San Francisco author Gertrude Atherton,
who had also written a biography of Rezanov on the centennial of his romance
with Concepcion.
Count von Resanoff, the Russian, envoy of the mighty Czar,
Stood beside the deep embrasures, where the brazen cannon are.
He with grave provincial magnates long had held serene debate
On the Treaty of Alliance and the high affairs of state;
He from grave provincial magnates oft had turned to talk apart
With the Commandante's daughter on the questions of the heart,
Until points of gravest import yielded slowly one by one,
And by Love was consummated what Diplomacy begun;
