Valery Gergiev’s role in Manchester United’s defeat
mainIf you watched Man United vs PSG last night you will have seen extensive advertisements for the social and cultural blessings of the Champions League sponsor, Gazprom.
The cultural heroes of this worthy Russian benefactor are none other than Valery Gergiev and Denis Matsuev. The two artists were featured heavily in the Gazprom ads.
The next time you read that artists have no alternative to collaborating with President Putin’s foreign adventures, remember too that there are rich rewards available to those who sing along with the Russia’s imperial ruler.
