Congratulations! (Russian: Поздравляем!, romanized: Pozdravlyayem!, Op. 111) is a 1975 opera by Mieczysław Weinberg to his own Russian libretto after the Yiddish play Mazel Tov by Sholem Aleichem.[1][2][3] The plot, closely following the text of Sholem Aleichem's play, emphasises the class conflict to placate Soviet censors, for whom otherwise a Jewish topic may have proved problematic.[4] The opera premiered in Moscow in 1983. Present at the premiere was Vladimir Stoupel, who conducted the premiere outside Russia at the Konzerthaus Berlin in 2012.
