In honor of International Women's Day, the "Living Classics" concert was a great success at the "Vatan" cinema-concert hall. It was a record-breaking concert with a multitude of surprises. The first surprise awaited the audience at the entrance of the hall, where each lady was given a festive greeting card.
The opening of the concert program was also a surprise. Ayna Shirova composed the piece "Spring Melody" based on the poems of her father Hemra Shirov. The audience highly appreciated the creative tandem of father and daughter.
The concert program included works by Turkmen composers such as "Akja Kepderi" by Shamamet Byashimov, "Gyzlar" by Nury Mukhatov, and "Khuvdi" by Nury Halmamedov. Each of these songs expressed admiration for Turkmen girls and women.
The performance of Selbiniyaz Annadurdyeva, Honored Artist of Turkmenistan, was warmly received by the audience. She performed the retro song "And I Like Him" by Vladimir Shainsky with such brilliant artistry that she lit up the entire hall with her energy.
The next surprise for the women in the hall was the performance of a male chamber choir conducted by Arslan Oveniyazov. The choir romantically performed the song "Nocturne" by Arno Babajanyan.
The participating married couples in the concert program were particularly appreciated on this spring holiday. There were two couples: Syahra Atayeva (violin) and Tahir Atayev (orchestra conductor), as well as Myahri Moshiyeva (piano) and Begench Moshiyev (tenor).
Begench Moshiyev performed the song "Mama" by Oleg Gazmanov, accompanied by photographs from the singer's family album.
Maya Gulayeva continued the theme of motherhood with her performance of the song "Mother's Eyes" by Tamara Gverdtsiteli.
Traditionally, the concert concluded with a joint performance by the soloists, who sang the wonderful song "Those Eyes Opposite" by David Tukhmanov. The poignant lyrics, captivating music and sincere vocal performance became the main gift for the listeners, who gave the singers a long-standing ovation.
