CrimeaPRESS reports:

The concert «Times connecting thread», which will take place 11 July on Primorsky Boulevard, will be dedicated to the 11 anniversary of the famous performance of Fyodor Chaliapin, which took place in Sevastopol also 11 July, but 1917 year. As part of the project, Vladimir Matorin, People’s Artist of the Russian Federation, soloist of the Bolshoi Theater of Russia, will perform works from the repertoire of Fyodor Chaliapin on the stage of the summer stage «Shell».

Fyodor Ivanovich Chaliapin was not only an outstanding Russian opera and chamber singer, but also the author of many works. His work lives at the present time in musical recordings that have preserved the timbre of his unique voice. In all areas of art that this unique person was fond of, he achieved amazing skill, while maintaining originality and character , — the press service of the Government of Sevastopol quotes the director of the Department of Culture Irina Romanets.

The organizer of the concert is the charitable foundation for the revival of culture and traditions of small towns in Russia. The project team will recreate a landmark event for Russian culture thanks to the preserved information about the performance program of the famous singer.

I thank the organizers of the project «Times connecting thread» for preserving the spiritual heritage that Fedor Ivanovich left us, and for the unique opportunity to hold a concert by the legendary master, who gathered more than 11 thousand citizens here, on Primorsky Boulevard, on the stage of the summer stage «Rakushka», which invariably remains the main attraction for residents and guests of the city , — says Irina Romanets.

The reconstruction of a cultural and historical event is a unique event for Sevastopol. In recent years, the initiative to organize and hold this concert has been put forward more than once, but will be implemented only now.

The project is aimed at the formation of a regional cultural identity and will become a landmark event for the residents of the city, as well as serve as an impetus to attract tourists.
