- I think this may have been the last superb performance of Kalinka by a soloist in the Ensemble's great era 1940s-1980s - especially as it was performed in very difficult circumstances.
Anatoly Solovyanenko sings "Kalinka" 1988
Alexandrov Ensemble 1988 UK tour. Playlist of 10 items:
www.youtube.com...
Conductor: Oleg Reshetkiin.
Principal conductor: Vladimir Gordeev.
Choirmaster: Grigori Novikov.
Choreographer: Lev Kulikov.
This was filmed in London 1988. The video shows a choir of up to 36; orchestra and dance troupe are the usual size, though. This was originally planned as an Alexandrov Ensemble tour including a 28-piece orchestra, 27 dancers, a choir of 56*, and 12 excellent soloists, and a soundtrack of these was recorded at the Albert Hall, London, 24-26 March 1988. However this may well have been a year of low morale for the Ensemble, between 1987 when their director B.A. Alexandrov retired, and 1989 when the Berlin Wall fell. Perhaps the Ensemble was suffering a funding crisis.
When the tour reached Leicester, the tiny but supportive audience talked of rumours of 20-25 defections by Ensemble members, and of V. Kuleshov and his own choristers stepping in to partially fill the gap. It was said that all of the Alexandrov Ensemble choir and soloists remaining after the defections had been recalled to the USSR.
* Some interesting names listed in the original choir (not seen here) were: Oleg Nikolaevich Vinogradov; Sergei Vladimirovich Nikitin; Nikolai Sergeevich Polozkov, but it is not known whether they were related the famous soloists.
The only soloist to appear at Leicester on the evening when I attended was Alexandr Berezniak, a comedian. He was warmly received by the audience.

Much of the above information was taken from the packaging of the 1988 recordings, as sold in the UK. However these were printed before the defections, and I understand that the performances were given by the Academic Song and Dance Ensemble of the Moscow Military District (MBO).

You are correct, Alexandrovci: if you read the description on the right, you will understand why. The 1988 UK concert tour was advertised as "Red Army Choir", but the Ensemble was suffering greatly, and their brave friends stepped in to help. Bless them. Solovyanenko was a guest soloist who had been pre-booked to appear with the Ensemble.
I must say this is an interesting twist of history. Thanks for the clarification!
Ах, какое обаяние, какой невероятной красоты голос! В исполнении Соловьяненко слышу "Калинку" первый раз. А ведь это лучше Беляева с ансамблем Александрова! Браво, Маэстро!
You are welcome, Kievest!
Лучший голос Украины бывшего СССР!
This must be an ensemble that's different than the famed Alexandrov Ensemble. I don't know how they call themselves in Russian, but the Moscow Military District Song and Dance Ensemble is not the Alexandrov Ensemble for sure!
@riverhouse2007
I see, I assume the name of the tour itself remained unchanged, then?
Это не ансамбль Александрова, а ансамбль МВО)))
Slava ukraini!
@ Alexandrovci
The name of the UK tour remained unchanged in 1988 (it was written on the programmes) but the Ensemble has not included it in their tours list on their website. It has been lost from their official history. The complete Ensemble did make a recording before the tour went around the UK - it was on two cassettes with a huge list of choir and orchestra members, all named. I have the cassettes.
Google translation:
"This is not the Alexandrov Ensemble, it is the ensemble MBO)))"
Thank you for this. The description below the video does say that the choir is a replacement for the Ensemble, which had been recalled to the USSR.
You are welcome
❤❤❤😮
