🎷 People’s Artist of Russia Igor Butman: 🖼 Music video premiere! "Rus. A Living Painting" — Igor Butman, Sergey Bezrukov, and the Moscow Jazz Orchestra. The first-ever music video by the Moscow Jazz Orchestra under the direction of Igor Butman — "Rus. A Living Painting." The musical core of the video is the instrumental composition "Rus" by Nikolai Levinovsky, written on themes from Alexander Borodin's opera "Prince Igor" and Symphony No. 2 ("The Bogatyr Symphony"). The literary foundation features excerpts from "The Tale of Igor's Campaign", recited by People’s Artist of Russia Sergey Bezrukov. "The Tale of Igor's Campaign" is a remarkable work of ancient Russian literature, written by an unknown author at the turn of the 12th and 13th centuries. The project was created and implemented as part of the "Muscontent" selection by the Presidential Foundation for Cultural Initiatives (PFCI).
