Greetings on the opening of the fifth Pokrovsky Cathedral National Patriotic Festival of Bard Songs

January 18, 2025

Vladimir Putin sent a message of greetings to the participants and guests of the fifth Pokrovsky Cathedral National Patriotic Festival of Bard Songs.

The message reads, in part:

“It is gratifying that you worthily continue the authentic traditions of this unique musical and poetic genre which is particularly loved by our people because the songs born deep inside the hearts tell the stories that concern everyone – about close friendship and camaraderie, bravery and generosity of spirit, and the heroic history of our Fatherland.

I am confident that the festival will be held at a high organisational level and will become a true fest for numerous fans of bard songs.”
