Evgeny Chemyakin and Alexey Bagichev will continue the project "Blues Roots" with a concert-story about early blues, spirituals, and gospels. Early blues was born at the intersection of pain, faith, street freedom, and inner conflict. It echoes spiritual songs, hard labor, legends of deals with dark forces, hope for salvation, and the voice of a person who needs to speak out. The concert-story by Evgeny Chemyakin and Alexey Bagichev addresses these roots without museum dryness: the music is immediately accompanied by storytelling, and the story returns the songs to their human context. The musicians of The Travelling Ochestra continue the "Blues Roots" project and this time discuss how the blues of the early 20th century oscillated between the image of devilish music and religious tradition. At the center of the evening are stories about the birth of spirituals, the spiritual songs of African Americans, early gospels, and the myths that surrounded the bluesmen. This will help to hear the familiar genre more deeply: not as a set of guitar licks, but as a language of memory, faith, suffering, irony, and resistance. Entertainment in Yekaterinburg is collected on our website.
