Bravo! He speaks up against the criminal act that is happening in Ukraine according to his own intimate convictions, as a free individual, from a free country ( a safe environment) , and not because the prevailing dogma of ”righteousness” or ”heroism” requires it.
Well said sir!
The more Russian artists who speak out against this criminal and vicious act of agression against the people of Ukraine the better. Bravo Evgeny Kissin.
Full marks to you, Evgeny Kissin
Why is Verbier silent about Gergiev remaining the Music Director?
Because Verbier is a POS.
Verbier is done with VG and is not a POS.
LOL. Waiting for the Swiss to take a hardline are you?
And the Edinburgh International Festival where he is Honorary President!
-It used to be:I am vaccinated Covid==>I can play
-now it is I am agianst Ukrainian war==>I can play

In the U.S., you’ll have to add, “I acknowledge the systemic racism of classical music, and that this concert hall is on land stolen from the (fill in the blank) tribe” before you can play.
These are other issues, but certainly valid ones…..
Alive?
Well done to EK for speaking out.
Bravo, bravo, bravissimo Zhenia!!
As always you prove time and again to be a real Human Being and an Artist of integrity!!!
Bravo!
See Gergiev, it’s not that difficult!
He’s probably worried about an invite to a Kremlin tea party…
“Milk, and then just as it comes? How many lumps of polonium?”
A true Russian patriot who cares about his country and is willing to speak out for the people of Russia and not the “czar” wannabe and his minions who care nothing for decency, morality and human life. With undo respect for Evgeny Kissin as not only an artist but humanitarian.
Putin=Hitler. Death to Putin!
