KAZAN, 29 April (BelTA) - The Every Third commemorative concert offers a chance to touch the beautiful world of art, BelTA learned from Leyla Fazleeva, Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Tatarstan, Russian Federation, before the concert.
“The Every Third commemorative concert is dedicated to the greatest date in our history: the Victory of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War. I am immensely grateful to those who are behind the stage today for this incredibly vivid concert in memory of those who never returned, who remained on the battlefields and secured the Victory in the Great Patriotic War at an incredibly high price. Thank you all for the opportunity to touch the beautiful world of art, which preserves and conveys emotions,” she said.
Vladimir Pertsov, First Deputy Head of the Belarus President Administration, noted that Belarusians have delivered a special performance to Kazan, perhaps one of the most striking works on the topic of the Great Patriotic War created by Belarusian performers, authors, and producers in recent times. The commemorative concert has already been shown at the Kremlin Palace in Moscow, at Victory Museum on Poklonnaya Hill, and across Belarus. And today, the concert made its debut in Kazan.
According to Vladimir Pertsov, this concert gathers all the grief of the Belarusian people, as we lost every third citizen in that war.
“It also has a moment of joy from the Great Victory that we achieved together, both on the front lines and on the home front. There is also gratitude from the Belarusian people to the Tatar people, because numerous Belarusian enterprises were evacuated here. The Presidium of the Academy of Sciences of the BSSR worked here, the main newspaper Sovetskaya Belorussiya was published here, and in the village of Pechishchy, at 5 Kalinina Street, the classic writer Yanka Kupala, the BSSR’s first People’s Poet, created his works,” Vladimir Pertsov said.
Every Third is a unique project that combines theatrical and musical art, documentary filmmaking, and modern technology. The concert features rare wartime and post-war footage, photo documents, historical facts, and exact statistics. In this project, every performer and every episode is part of a single canvas that tells both the pain and tragedy of an entire nation and the tragic fates of individual people.
