The anniversary program of the Valaam Monastery Choir will combine folk melodies, wartime songs, and Orthodox hymns into one grand musical narrative about memory, faith, and love. Twenty years ago, several singers from the Valaam Monastery united to form a collective that is now known far beyond the island. The anniversary evening at the House of Music becomes a kind of chronology of this journey: from the first programs to major musical-poetic cycles, intertwining history, spiritual experience, and personal human destinies. The carefully structured program allows the audience to hear what the choir is living through now and which themes have remained central for it over two decades. Russian folk songs are heard here alongside wartime songs and Orthodox hymns, creating a lively, dynamic musical layer. In some pieces, there is a sense of bright rural simplicity, in others - a harsh frontline intonation, and in others - the prayerful concentration of monastic chants. These layers combine into a single narrative of memory, gratitude, and inner support that helps withstand trials and maintain dignity. A separate block of the program consists of projects with which the choir has performed in various cities across the country. Cycles dedicated to the works of Sergei Yesenin and Mikhail Lermontov will sound as a musical commentary to familiar lines of Russian poetry. In the part related to the theme of war, listeners will hear numbers from the programs "Faith and Victory" and "Forgotten War," where soldier songs, original compositions, and reminders of tragic dates from the last century stand side by side. The "Light of Valaam" is also recalled - a musical narrative about the fate of the monastery, which experienced flourishing, devastation, and revival.
