ALT0 ... that operatic soprano Natalia Shpiller was beloved by Joseph Stalin, and was frequently used by him for performances at the Moscow Kremlin to impress visiting dignitaries? Source: McMillan, Arnold (21 Oct 1995). "Natalia Shpiller: Songs for Stalin". The Guardian. p. 32.
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation

Interesting:
QPQ: Done.
Overall: Brand new reasonably lengthy article, no copyvio deteced and interesting hook. I added ALT1 because I think it sounds less clunky, but either works in my opinion. Assuming good faith for offline source cited in the hook. This should be ready to promote. BuySomeApples (talk) 20:49, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
