Pushkin's "Gypsies" The recording of the performance was made as part of the "Night of the Arts" action in the Stravinsky Hall. Fascinating music, passionate dances, eroticism that slips in every movement, the sensual beauty of patchwork gypsy costumes - yes, this is "Aleko" by S.V. Rachmaninoff in "Helikon"! The premiere of the first opera by young Rachmaninov was dedicated to the 145th anniversary of his birth and took place on June 7, 2018.

What is this opera about - about love and betrayal, Or freedom of choice? From time immemorial, these questions have tormented people, and everyone must find their own answers ... The music of the young Rachmaninov makes us, the inhabitants of the 21st century, think about this too. The performance was attended by: Aleko - Dmitry Yankovsky, Zemfira - Olga Tolkmit, Young Gypsy - Ivan Volkov, Old Man, Zemfira's father - Alexei Dedov, Old Gypsy - Larisa Kostyuk.
