On the evening of December 14, the third floor of the building on Tsvetnoy Boulevard was filled with ringing voices and laughter. Children and grandchildren of employees of the Mosmetrostroy JSC group of companies came to the long-awaited family event - the seventh festival-concert of children's creativity "Rainbow of Talents".
Back on December 8th, the first heralds of the upcoming festival appeared - as if by magic, drawings and crafts grew up like a bright carpet near the Christmas tree near the assembly hall: dragons, tunnels and snowmen. The theme of the holiday is “New Year 2024 in the organizations of the Moscow Metrostroy.”
Before the concert, the children split up - some went to rehearse, honing the already jaw-dropping numbers to perfection, while others stayed to play with the animators invited specially for the holiday.
According to tradition, the evening was opened by the General Director of Mosmetrostroy JSC Sergey Zhukov. He greeted those gathered and wished the participants a good performance and well-being.
“Your parents are building the metro, and you, with your talents, work and smiles, create a joyful holiday atmosphere,” he said. – We always look forward to these meetings to see how you have grown, what you have become, and of course, we look forward to your performances, drawings and crafts.
The festival, which began with a simple exhibition of children's drawings in the hall, becomes brighter and more colorful every year. More participants are appearing, genres are expanding. Young artists sing, play music, dance, perform poetry and acrobatic sketches. The number of participants has also increased. This time there are 180 of them.
Traditionally, the holiday was led by Father Frost and his granddaughter Snegurochka.
Six-year-old Ulyana Ulybysheva opened the series of bright performances by cheerfully singing “Beautiful Christmas Tree.” The poems were narrated by Matvey and Makar Lebedev (USR), Vasilisa and Arseny Zakharikov (SMU-12), Varvara and Maxim Krisanova (TSK), Denis Zhukov (TSK), Bronislav and Miroslava Nechaev (Inzhproekt Institute), Ekaterina Minkova (TO-6) and Afanasyeva Stefania (TO-6). Not only famous authors were chosen by the heroes of the evening. Sofya Malykhina (SMU-6) read her own work “New Year in Artek”.
– I have been performing at the Rainbow of Talents since I was eight years old. “I didn’t miss a single concert,” she said. – My dream is to set a record and perform on this stage ten times in a row.
For Sofia, the assembly hall of the Directorate is familiar and familiar, and for seven-year-old Anna Antipova (TO-6), who showed a dance with a hoop, this concert became her debut in Metrostroy. The girl said that she had only been to gymnastics once, that she trained at home and learned everything herself.
Anastasia and Ekaterina Ganin (TSK), Polina Lavrova and Ekaterina Uzun (SMU-1) delighted the audience with their choreography. Seven-year-old Fyodor Lepeshkin (SMU-12) played the composition “Crane” on the violin.
Alexander and Sofya Sharokhin (TO-6) performed the musical family number “Hello, we are looking for talents.” Their little sister Antonina wanted to join them, but could not overcome her shyness and watched what was happening from the hall. We believe that next year she, like other talented guys, will show the audience what she is capable of. Thank you everyone for participating and see you next year – at the 8th festival!
METROSTROY 2024
Metrostroy 2024,
What will it be like?
Interesting to know!
Such that it would be convenient for people to get to work or on business faster.
To increase the number of new stations,
To make trains fly faster,
So that people do not waste time,
They always arrived on time.
To old famous stations
Were reconstructed from scratch.
To make the transitions between stations shine again,
Just like old times.
I wish Metrostroy patience,
Development, strength and goodness!
To make Metrostroy convenient for people
And he always brought benefit to everyone!
The author of the poems is Natalya Akshentseva, surveyor of the Mosmetrostroy USR. At the Rainbow of Talents festival, her daughter, Maria, read poetry.
