In this concert he performs a selection of well-loved and timeless Russian classics, such as I loved you (lyrics by Pushkin), I met you, Misty morning (lyrics by Turgenev), 'Tis not you I love so ardently (lyrics by Lermontov), Troika, Along Piterskaya Street, Ochi chornye, and many other beautiful Russian folk songs, romances and arias.
"Russian music, when performed by non-Russians, is often scholastic, or simply misinterpreted. Some performers concentrate on their voice more than the emotion in the music. I, on the contrary, always express the spiritual content, the soul of the song." - Sergey Zakharov
