Mariinsky Theatre soloist Andrei Serov highlighted the uniqueness of the National Centre RUSSIA
Leading Mariinsky Theatre soloist Andrei Serov made his debut performance on the stage of the National Centre RUSSIA on January 7 as part of the festive program "Living Windows of Christmas."
The combination of classical and modern music, carols, world opera hits, arias, and even beatboxing transported the audience into the atmosphere of Christmas night, evoking vivid emotions.
"The program is designed to suit every taste. Most importantly, our cultural code is preserved and fully represented," said Andrei Serov.
The Mariinsky Theatre soloist emphasized the uniqueness of the National Centre RUSSIA as a venue for cultural events.
"The National Centre RUSSIA is truly a unique and very interesting venue. First of all, the audience here doesn’t buy tickets. This means the state cares for its population, for its people, ensuring they can experience art for free — art that makes us better, touches our hearts, and inspires us to do good for the benefit of all society. I am delighted to perform here for the first time," said Andrei Serov.
Let us remind you that on January 7, the concert hall of the National Centre RUSSIA hosted the musical evening "Living Windows of Christmas." The multi-genre concert program, dedicated to the story of Christmas night, featured soloists from the country’s leading theatres, renowned conductors, and creative ensembles.
The grand program included Merited Artist of Russia and Bolshoi Theatre soloist Agunda Kulayeva, Mariinsky Theatre soloist Natalia Pavlova, Bolshoi Theatre soloist Ksenia Dezhneva, Mariinsky Theatre soloists Alexander Trofimov and Andrei Serov, European champion, eight-time Russian champion, and world beatboxing champion Vakhtang, and other stars.
