When the work was rejected by St. Petersburg's Mariinsky Theater Mussorgsky followed the advice of friends and revised the opera. In the Final version of 1871/72 he expanded the fifth scene scrapped the sixth and added three new scenes so that the opera now consisted of nine scenes in one prologue and four acts:

1.- 4. see 1868/69 - 5. A room in the Czar's apartments in the Kremlin - 6. Marina's boudoir in Sandomir - 7. Palace park in Sandomir - 8. Council of Boyars. Death of Boris - 9. In the forest of Kromy (Revolution scene)

The score published under the supervision of Pavel Lamm in the Complete Edition (1928) and the piano reduction (1931) contain the parts of both versions transmitted in score as well as in the piano reduction all the changes made by Mussorgsky in his piano reduction of 1874. The performance material can thus be used for a production of either the original version or the final version according to need.
