An evening entitled “Concerto for Trumpet and Orchestra” in the Great Hall of the Belgorod Philharmonic opened on October 8 the subscription program “Reflection of Time” of the Concert Wind Orchestra (chief conductor - Yuri Merkulov, conductor - Alexander Yagovdik).

In her brief greeting (with the presentation of awards to the orchestra’s artists), the director of the BGF, Svetlana Borukha, noted that in the new season, its fans from the brass band - and the hall was full as always - traditionally expect new ideas, new guests, new repertoire news. And, as was quite rightly noted, Yuri Merkulov and his team, having once firmly decided that “the public must be constantly surprised,” never deceived the audience’s expectations.

And this time Yuri Merkulov’s KODI brilliantly continued the baton of the past brilliant season opening concerts - in the Organ Hall and the Philharmonic as a whole. The originally inspiring and uplifting sound of the brass band yesterday shone and sparkled like a well-polished gem.

It is difficult to speak about yesterday's concert except in exclamations and enthusiastic interjections. Courage is the word that best describes the atmosphere of last night. Courage is the courage and rapture of performers with their skill, youth and talent.

Having started on the highest note of a solemn and festive ceremonial march (N. Iwai - Hoorey for Hollywood), the performers did not lower this emotional level one iota. For two hours, listeners admired the splendor of brass music, sometimes purely entertaining, sometimes dance-pop, sometimes academic-classical.

The defile of Belgorod trumpeters - Andrei Dolinsky, Eduard Borisovsky, Vitaly Guryev, Nikolai Pustovit, Nikolai Kravchenko, Valentin Vdovichenko, Evgeny Kolesnikov and trombonists Dmitry Saitov and Viktor Skrynnikov - in each section was crowned by a solo by Evgeny Guryev with the orchestra.

The guest of the evening - a “Belgorod Muscovite”, laureate of international competitions, soloist of the Bolshoi Theater orchestra - grew up in the famous Bessonovka, a village famous for the name of the outstanding Belgorod agrarian V. Ya. Gorin. Evgeny Guryev grew up in a family where they played (and play) musical instruments, and of the three brothers, Evgeny and his younger brother Vitaly (now a member of the Yu. Merkulova orchestra) became professional musicians.

Many people remember Evgeny Guryev’s performance two years ago in the Great Hall of the Bolshoi Theater as part of the brass quintet of the Bolshoi Theater Orchestra, which he led. During his visit today, the 30-year-old musician also gave a master class for wind students of the Belgorod Music College and the Institute of Arts and Culture. This new moment in philharmonic life - the interaction of outstanding touring artists and Belgorod musical youth - has become permanent on the initiative of the new leadership of the philharmonic.

Evgeny Guryev graduated from a music school in Kharkov. By the way, his Kharkov teachers were at the concert. Among E. Guryev’s teachers at the Gnessin Institute, among others, was the legendary trumpeter Timofey Dokshitser. His school is in a soft, even, “flight sound”, in a very beautiful cantilena of “long” breathing, in virtuosity that knows no barriers. For two hours the trumpet of “King” Evgeniy Guryev and his wonderful “retinue” sang hymns to freedom, masculinity, joy and beauty of life.

And, just like the performance of the soloists, the hall was inspired and “ignited” by the intoxicating intoxicating performance of the huge orchestra conducted by Yuri Merkulov and Alexander Yagovdik.

There has undoubtedly been a qualitative leap in the orchestra, even compared to last season. The unity and integrity of the sound of the groups (for example, in carrying out the theme in Al. Mencken’s “Beauty and the Beast,” nine trumpets sounded like one), precise sound balance between groups, impeccable tempo transitions, timbre patterns of orchestral texture infinitely varied in clarity and density, and , most importantly, admiring all this in colorful and cheerful compositions could not but bring the audience into complete delight.

Yuri Merkulov, who has long been winning “his” audience “without sparing his belly” with the optimistic beauty of the sound of a good large brass band, today celebrates a complete victory. Today is the “finest hour” for the Concert Wind Orchestra and its leaders, and the listener’s need for such sound optimism is unlikely to be exhausted soon.

This is truly true: “talent is the only news that is always new.”

The young musicians of the NewLifeBrass brass ensemble managed to make the Dubna audience fall in love with their instruments and with themselves.

Five young musicians puzzled the audience from the first minutes of their performance. While performing Mozart, the brass players suddenly began to squat. Usually musicians "play around" at the end, after the "heavy" classics. And then they immediately set the tone - light, cheerful, and at the end of the concert they offered to dance. And the audience was drawn into the game, encouraged to catch the rhythm together, and the audience happily caught the rhythm.

The quintet from each number made a small performance or defile. Preceding the performance of “Tiger Hunt” by R. Decoste, the musicians designated the roles: tuba - tiger, the rest of the brass - hunters. The listeners became spectators at the same time; they only had time to watch how two trumpets, a horn and a trombone hunted the tuba.

It seemed to me that these “flirtations” did not irritate the prepared audience, because the main thing was observed - the quintet played perfectly, and the sound of the instruments was so good (thanks to the small hall of the Mir House of Culture!) that after almost every number they heard “Bravo!”

Casual listeners are just right to envy. Musicians seem to be able to make anyone fall in love with brass instruments, because they idolize their instruments and take music very seriously, despite the “game” format. They play both timeless classics and musical melodies equally beautifully. Mozart, Piazzolla, N. Mancini, A. Khachaturian, modern composer Oleg Oblov and others performed at the Dubna concert.

During the performance, I couldn’t help but think, I wish this quintet would join our schools and universities. It turned out that during the day the ensemble gave a concert for schoolchildren at the Oktyabr House of Culture. But it didn’t work out with the university. The conductor of the Dubna Symphony Orchestra, Evgeniy Stavinsky, complained that the performance was disrupted due to some technical discrepancy, which the university did not bother to resolve. It’s a pity!

The musicians said that they created their New Life Brass ensemble in 2009, when they were still second-year students at the Russian Academy of Music. Gnesins. In a short period of time we managed to attend concerts in St. Petersburg, Yerevan, Kazan, Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and other cities, win the Grand Prix at several competitions and even accompany the opening of the XXV NIKA film award.
