Igor Guberman – Grand Jubilee Concert

16+

Guberman is 90 - congratulations from the whole country!

Igor Guberman is ninety, and it's hard to believe. But you must believe it because it's true. Igor Mironovich's creativity has been delighting readers for decades, drawing admiration from readers of all ages: from around 20 to infinity.

Epochs, generations, tastes, and preferences change, but our Mironych does not. A combination of sharp wit, relentless self-irony, and life wisdom has made this remarkable man popular and in demand for many years. His performances always feature sharp humor and a festive atmosphere, and his incredible charm makes creative meetings feel like live performances and "heart-to-heart conversations."

"Gariki" — a term Igor Mironovich created many years ago for his verses to describe the product of his epochal work, comparable only to the priceless rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. During his life, Guberman has written more than 10,000 of these "poetic pearls for any occasion," and they have long since spread to all corners of our planet: thanks to their brevity, lightness, and relevance, Garikis have become the most frequently quoted lines for various gatherings and celebrations.

Yet Guberman is valued above all for his ability to laugh at difficulties, age, and himself, as he turns everyday observations into precise and apt aphorisms. And Guberman also has a unique ability that elevates him to an unattainable level among "intellectual workers": he masterfully mixes "Russian mat and Jewish humor," where beneath the seemingly light exterior, enriched with skillful non-normative vocabulary, lies deep psychology and understanding of the era's sore points.

This evening, Igor Mironovich will read his best "Gariks," written over more than 60 years.
