100th anniversary of the emergence of domestic animation in Russia Automatic translate

April 8, 1912 is considered the officially adopted date of the appearance of domestic animation. It was then that the premiere of the cartoon "Beautiful Lyukanida" by V. Starevich took place. In honor of this anniversary date, a symphony orchestra conducted by M. Golikov “Tauride Chapel” (Petersburg, atrium of the Permanent Mission of Moscow) will perform symphonic arrangements of popular tunes from favorite cartoons.

This concert will be opened by a medley consisting of “folk” melodies, sounded in the tapes “Mom for a Mammoth”, “Well, wait a minute!” And many others. According to the press service of the chapel, the concert will be decorated with musical works of foreign animated films and feature films. Moreover, for most of them a new arrangement was written. Although the concert was also planned to perform classical works, the orchestra decided to expand its repertoire with melodies taken from animated works. The orchestra’s performances dedicated to the centenary of Russian animation were charitable.

The beach of the Peter and Paul Fortress also became a participant in this event. The XI festival of sand sculptures was opened on it. This international festival was also dedicated to the beloved heroes of Soviet and foreign cartoons.
