At the evening dedicated to the anniversary of Sergey Yesenin, the People's Artist of Russia Viktor Nikitin will perform. Sometimes one voice is enough to rediscover familiar lines. The poetry evening in honor of Sergey Yesenin's anniversary offers just such an experience - a touch with the lyricism that sweeps in with the wind from the fields, smells of hay, and carries the bittersweet tenderness of farewells. The poems will be read by Viktor Nikitin, a laureate of the all-Russian competition for performers of Yesenin's poetry. His manner invites listeners to hear between the lines: to catch the "quiet words of love," to guess the landscape emerging behind the text, to grasp that very "Russian light" that leaves the heart numb. Each appearance of the artist on stage is a small performance without scenery, where meaning and emotion are born from extreme simplicity. The program builds from early pastoral lyricism to mature confessionalism, from rural scenes to the city with its lights and anxieties. The poems weave into the story of a person who learned to love and forgive, argued with fate, and still chose life. On our website, we share information about free events in Moscow.
