The Summer Amphitheater is the main venue of Slavianski Bazaar in Vitebsk and the epicenter of concerts. Music life in Vitebsk in the days of the truly international festival is full of all kinds of voices, instruments, genres and rhythms. Among the famous participants of the festival this year are Nikolai Baskov, Irina Allegrova, Zara, Oleg Gazmanov, Elena Vaenga, Stas Piekha, Timati, and many others.

The program Peace to Your Home by Honored Artist of Russia Zara kicked off a series of solo performances. The audience warmly welcomed the artist who opened the concert with the Belarusian folk song Kupalinka. This song was not the only surprise from Zara. Together with famous actor Gerard Depardieu she sang Vladimir Vysotsky’s song Interrupted Flight in Russian and French. Taking part in Zara’s show were festival’s old friends Oleg Gazmanov and Stas Piekha. The duo with Danil Pluzhnikov, winner of the Voice Kids third season, the youngest participant of the concert, was met by standing ovation.

Zara’s concert was followed by the Game Show by Nikolai Baskov. The show created a real furore. The abundance of stage decorations and costumes caught the imagination: a talking mask, a machine gun firing confetti, gladiator fights, throne rooms and exhibition halls featuring replicas of the world’s greatest works of art. The singer appeared in a number of incarnations: from a Chinese prince to a Roman emperor and a mysterious man hovering over the stage on circus swings without safety equipment. Images of Luciano Pavarotti, Valeria, Taisia Povaliy and Natalie were projected on screen and sang with the singer. The Cherry Love song that Nikolai Baskov dedicated to his parents was a truly touching moment of the concert. This year they are celebrating 43 years of their marriage. Some moments of these years, including those depicting childhood days of the singer, were broadcast on the stage screens.
