RINGING VOICES OF PRIDNEPROVIE

The festival stage hosted the semi-final of the II republican creative contest

"Vytokі" in the nomination "Vocals".

The competent jury included eminent and aspiring performers. Under the chairmanship of the composer, creator and head of the art group "Belarusy" Valery Shmat, the contestants were evaluated by a member of the Guild of Russian actors Leush Lyubich, the representative of Belarus at Euro Vision 2019 Zina Kupriyanovich, lead singer of the Bolshoi Opera and Ballet Theater Taras Prisyazhnyuk, the virtuoso musician Alexander Voronishche, and the winner of the  Francysk Scaryna medal Gunyesh.

The programme had two age nominations: 12-16 and 17-30 years of age. There were 15 vocalists in total, including three from Gorki. In the first group, the soloist of the vocal and pop studio "Lira" from secondary school No. 1 Angelina Avdeenko and the gymnasium student Nelly Kukel, who belongs to the children's school of arts and vocal and choral skills took part. In the second - a citizen of Turkmenistan, and a master student of amelioration and construction faculty of the Belarusian State Agricultural Academy Farhat Rustemov (pictured), who, during his studies at the Academy, developed his skills at the Center for Student Art (Cultural Centre of the Academy).

The audience warmly supported all the contestants. But especially those from the town of Gorki. They even prepared posters.

Everyone was presented with diplomas of participants-semifinalists and gifts. Two girls from Mogilev became the winners. Arina Pekhtereva - in the first age group, and Liliana Sadovskaya - in the second. It is a pleasure to note that Farhat Rustemov was awarded the Diploma of the laureate of the II degree.

By the way, a wonderful gift was the performance of the jury. Experienced performers wished the contestants creative success, development and enjoyment from music.
