This is the story of the epic duels between Sosriqwe and Toteresh on Mount Hereme. In the first meet, the invincible Toteresh son of Albech easily prevails over Sosriqwe, but gives him a leave of execution until the next morning. ‘He who forfeits a date was not born a man by his mother,’ he said as he let Sosriqwe go. Terrified, Sosriqwe goes back to his over-protective mother Satanay, who counsels him to use ruse to overcome his adversary (‘the terror of whole armies’), and she invokes black magic in aid of her pet son. In fact, the brash Nart was many a time saved from certain death by the intervention of the mighty sorceress. On the set date, Sosriqwe casts a dark mist over the sacred Mount, causing Toteresh to nod off. Sosriqwe makes his appearance with loud clamour issuing from the bells attached to the mane and tail of his steed Tx’wezchey. Toteresh’s steed takes fright and casts the rider off. As Sosriqwe stands over Toteresh with sword in hand, the supine Nart pleads for a third encounter. However, wily Sosriqwe refuses, cuts off Toteresh’s head and returns triumphant to his doting mother.

Vladimir Baragun(ov) (Бэрэгъун Владимир) (31 December 1939 — 13 October 1997), Kabardian singer, musicologist, People’s Artist of the Kabardino-Balkar ASSR (1981), Honoured Cultural Worker of the Russian Federation (1996), and Laureate of the State Prize of the Kabardino-Balkar Republic. In 1969 he graduated from the Sobinov State Conservatory in Saratov. From 1969 to 1977 he was a soloist for the Kabardino-Balkar Theatre. He sang 19 opera-roles. He recorded hundreds of songs, ballades, romances for radio and television and on disc. He was awarded the ‘Golden Hatchet’ (highest grade) at the International Folklore Festival in Poland. He was one of the authors of the 3-volume ‘National Songs and Instrumental Works of the Circassians’, which has become a classic of Circassian musical folkloristics. Soloist and artistic director between 1977 and 1987 at the Kabardino-Balkar State Philharmonia, he served as its director between 1987 and 1997. He was one of the best singers of the 1970s and 80s in Circassia. Although he recorded many fine and memorable traditional and modern songs, his powerful operatic voice was best suited to ancient anthems.

He documented and recorded a number of Pantheonic chants, including ‘Mezguashhe’ («Мэзгуащэ»; ‘Forest-Lady’). His wide Nart repertoire included an emotive rendering of ‘Nartizch Wered’ («Нартыжь Уэрэд»; ‘Song of the Ancient Narts’), which causes tingling sensations in the back of one’s head, ‘Ashemez yi Pshinalhe’ («Ашэмэз и пшыналъэ»; ‘Ashemez’s Melody’), ‘Badinoque yi Pshinalhe’ («Бэдынокъуэ и пшыналъэ»; ‘Badinoque’s Melody’), ‘Sosrique Maf’e Qeih’ («Сосрыкъуэ МафIэ Къехь»; ‘Sosrique Fetches Fire’), and many others. His heroic/historical repertory included ‘Senjeley yi Wered’ («Сэнджэлей и уэрэд»; ‘The Song of Prince Sanjalay’), in which he evokes the heroism of the mediæval prince-warrior.
