October Recitals

Our guest artist is both a composer and a performer. He will present to the audience his original compositions and improvisations inspired by historical and life stories. Most of them were included in documentaries of different years, mainly in the orchestral version. The language of presentation is close to academic, but sufficiently original and recognizable. Vyacheslav Serzhanov is a Laureate of the International Jazz Festival (Moscow, 1995). He also worked as an arranger for Lara Fabian, Andrea Boccelli and other world stars.

This program combines music of the four centuries – from Bach’s polyphonic compositions to modern music, in which ordinary sound of guitar is not the only means of musical expression. All the pieces of the program are chosen and arranged in this order not by chance – they tell one big story about a person looking for himself, and in this search going through various life challenges. The program has a philosophical subtext, but at the same time it is fascinating for its stylistic diversity. Our guest performer is Maria Zhirnyh, a young and talented guitarist, laureate of many international competitions.
