"Petersburg is my most beloved city, " - says Vladimir Spivakov. - "As Anna Akhmatova wrote 'It was my blessed cradle that dark city on the rampant river.' My mother survived through the Siege of Leningrad, I grew up and became a musician here. It is not merely a city, it is a museum, a temple, a city of great culture and eternal traditions. Today we are mourning together with the city, its inhabitants, with everyone who lost families and friends. From all our hearts we wish a soon recovery to those wounded."
