The Sretensky Monastery Choir performed songs of the Great Victory
On May 10, the Sretensky Monastery Choir performed on the Main Stage, singing songs dedicated to the 79th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War. The artistic director and conductor was Andrei Poltorukhin.
The main purpose of the concert, which was held with the support of Rosneft, is to preserve the memory of the heroic events of the Great Patriotic War. Musical works are presented along with the best patriotic songs created in the post-war period. Music and poetry of the war years, which not only do not lose their relevance with the passage of time, but also acquire new meanings, are presented as eternally living testimonies of the feat of those who fought at the front and brought the Victory closer in the rear.
The Sretensky Monastery Choir is one of the most famous church choirs in Russia. Its members are professional musicians with beautiful voices and a deep understanding of Russian spiritual music. At the end of March, the Sretensky Monastery Choir presented a new musical program "Songs of Our Parents" at the Rosneft pavilion. The Choir's tour program includes 16 Russian cities. As part of this tour, songs of the older generation are performed, which depict important milestones in the country's history.
Yelena Olenina opened the creative programme of the exposition project "Legacy. Theatre. The Greats", dedicated to the 150th anniversary of the Union of Theatre Workers of Russia.
