8

The free concert was held at the outdoor performance stage of the social and political center in Paleskaya street in the evening of 10 September.

About 200 people came to listen to Liavon Volski, who has not been to Homel since 2008.

The concert organizers noted in a short speech before the performance, that Homel democratic forces go through the parliamentary elections with the concert the iconic Belarusian musician. In addition, the event is dedicated to an important date in the history of Belarus – the anniversary of the Battle of Vorsha.

Liavon Volski, the lead musician of Saturday evening, appeared on an improvised stage after a few songs from Homel bard Val’zhyna Tsiareshchanka. The musician was greeted with loud applause, tut.by writes.

Liavon Volski’s concert lasted for more than an hour. He sang almost two dozen of songs of various years – “It Is An Understatement To Say That I Hate” on poems by Pimen Panchanka, “Simple Words,” “Air Ballon,” “Stranger,” famous Krambambulia’s “Guests” and NRM’s “Three Tortoises.” And in between songs Volski joked and answered the Homel audience’s questions.

After the concert, Liavon shared his impressions and admitted that he had not expected so many people to come to the concert.

– I have not been to Homel for a long time and did not know what to expect. I wanted to carry out a test, to be honest. Therefore, it was very interesting. And as soon as there is such a demand for my creative work, there might be some more “unexpected” concerts. They are “unexpected” up to a point, then they will become “expected” ones (laughs). And the people are great! They are long to get hot, but then it is difficult to get them calm.

Liavon Volski’s concert ended with giving autographs and taking group photos.
