We remind that Kazan for the second time will accept the participants of the festival. February 21 at the Grand Concert Hall after S. Saidashev spectators will hear the most famous arias from the work of Giuseppe Verdi. Italian Tenor Luciano Ganchi, known to European listeners as a performer with powerful acting charisma and a master of precise vocal accents, will become participants in the Evenings of Italian Music event together with Ildar Abdrazakov. The Russian baritone is Sergey Kaydalov, who won the main prize this year at the Oslo International Music Competition and received an award from the hands of the Queen of Norway. The decoration of the program will be performers of women's parties: Anastasia Korotenko (soprano) and Natalya Yakimova (mezzo-soprano). Conductor Alexander Sladkovsky will stand behind the console of the State Symphony Orchestra of the Republic of Tatarstan.
Ildar Abdrazakov is widely recognized throughout the world as a recognized master of the Verdian repertoire. Recently, the leading record label in the world of classical music, Deutsche Grammophon, released the artist's solo album "as another reminder of why Ildar Abdrazakov is considered one of the best Verdian basses of all time," the company said in an official statement.
I would like to note that the Ildar Abdrazakov festival, thanks to its educational program, occupies a special niche for preservation and development of young talents in Russia. Master classes for young talents will also be held in Yekaterinburg and Moscow.
