On Wednesday, March 2, an acoustic concert in honor of the 50th anniversary of the Aquarium group took place at The Troubadour in London. The chamber performance became another statement by the musicians against the war. "The war between Russia and Ukraine is madness, and the people who unleashed it are a disgrace to Russia," Boris Grebenshchikov wrote on his social media a few days before the concert. He had long dreamed of performing at the Troubadour club in London, but, according to him, he could not imagine that it could happen at such a time. Aquarium began their performance with Alexander Vertinsky's anti-war song "What I Must Say" ("I Don't Know Why and Who Needs It"), and then performed the legendary compositions "God Knows Better," "Psalm 151," "Blue Light," "Mahamaya," "Serebro Gospoda Mogo," "Ne Destiny," and other Aquarium classics. In addition, for the first time in many years, the band played “Golden City.” “I pray that during this song at least one bullet will fly past, that at least one shell will not hit the house,” BG added before the music began to sound in the hall. * * * * Website: https://zimamagazine.com/ Facebook: / zimamagazine Instagram: / zima_magazine Telegram: https://t.me/zimamagazine
