A gala evening for the 125th anniversary of the legendary Russian Chapel named after A. A. Yurlov - a rare chance to hear the power of a large choir in conjunction with bright soloists. The program features masterpieces by Taneyev, Rachmaninoff, Stravinsky, Shostakovich, Sviridov, Shchedrin, and Falik, as well as Russian songs and romances. Anniversaries in music are not just dates, but moments of truth: when the ensemble looks back on its journey, and the listener rediscovers why they love the live voice. The gala concert for the 125th anniversary of the State Academic Choir Chapel of Russia named after A. A. Yurlov promises such a meeting. The renowned ensemble, under the direction of chief conductor Gennady Dmitryak, will combine choral power, chamber precision, and concert luxury; at the piano - the virtuoso Philip Kopachevsky, whose playing connects clarity of texture with genuine expression. The program is structured as a living pantheon of domestic music. From the architecture of Taneyev, where strict polyphony suddenly ignites with human warmth, - to the confessional world of Rachmaninoff, where the choir breathes as a single organism and seems to tell a long night prayer. From the bold plasticity of Stravinsky - to the dramatic contrasts of Shostakovich, where every dynamic surge gains meaning, and silence becomes part of the score. Further - the bright Russian cantilena of Sviridov, the aphoristic sharpness of Shchedrin, and the modern intonational freedom of Boris Falik. The line will be completed by Russian folk songs and romances: familiar melodies will sound anew, receiving the choir as a multi-voiced resonator of memory.
