Laureate of international contests, guest soloist of Filarmonica di Verona and Venetian LaFenice theater, opera singer Vladislav Chursin will give a recital on December 29 in the main hall of Magnesite Culture Center. The program comprises arias from great Italian operas, famous Neapolitan and Russian romantic songs. 

Vladislav graduated from Academic Music College at Tchaikovsky Moscow Music Conservatory. In 2012 he left for Italy and entered Bonporty Music Conservatory. Since then, the track record of the young baritone singer keeps growing, with prestigious regalia added to it annually. Some of them are the title “Honorary Freeman of Catania City”, Sicily Award for merit to the city administration, international Gold Medal award from the Culture Ministry of Italy and Maison des Artistes Association, first prize of the international Giangiacomo Guelfi vocal contest that takes place in Italy, and many others. In June 2018 Vladislav gave a series of charity concerts in Italy within the scope of the musical-and-historical youth festival “Russia-Italy”. He is now a student of the Italian Accademia D’arte Lirica Osimo. Magnesite Group provides support to the young singer.  

Vladislav considers himself to be the people’s diplomat. When giving recitals in Russian and European cities, he performs both the classic operas and little-known folk, patriotic and war songs. “People's diplomacy cannot be learned in the absence of the urge to bring nations and cultures closer together, and if this urge exists in one’s heart and soul, it is simply impossible to resist the temptation to open Russia to other countries and nations, and draw inspiration from their artistic traditions to enrich your own, national art”, says Vladislav in one of his interviews. 

The concert starts at 17:00. Admission is free.
