Moscow, 1937. Winter this year was particularly harsh. Snow blanketed the streets like a white shroud, and the frosty air forced passersby to hide their faces in their collars. Column Hall of the House of Unions, a majestic building with a history that has seen many significant events, guests gathered for an unusual event.
That evening, echoes of the past echoed in the hall. Among the guests were those who knew about Feodor Chaliapin — the great Russian bass, whose performances at this hall not long ago were sold out. But today he is more than just a singer, but a guide to a world where art and science intertwine.
An image appeared on the stage Mikhail Lomonosov — the founder of Moscow University. Lomonosov, the embodiment of eternal wisdom, was known for his passion for knowledge and reform. And so, in this imaginary world, Chaliapin and Lomonosov met to discuss how friendship could change the course of history.
Fyodor, dressed in his famous stage costume, spoke first. His deep voice seemed to penetrate the very depths of his listeners' consciousness: "How can science and art exist separately? They should be friends, like you and I, Mikhail Vasilyevich."
Lomonosov nodded, smiling reservedly. "That's true, Fyodor Ivanovich. Science needs inspiration, and art needs logic and structure. Our knowledge and feelings, combined, can create something great."
As they discussed how their friendship could impact society, silence reigned in the room. The audience understood that this was not simply a meeting of two great minds, but a symbol of how different spheres of human life can be connected.
As soon as their dialogue concluded, the audience burst into applause. At that moment, it became clear that even in the darkest times, friendship and understanding can pave the way to a brighter future.
As the guests left the hall, they felt the chilly breath of Moscow return. But this time, the cold seemed less severe, as hope glimmered in their hearts, inspired by the story of two great men.

Thank you and Masha for yesterday!
The speakers are happy. The connection in the headphones often failed, especially at the checkpoint, but this is our current life situation. It was audible if they were standing close, no further than 1.5 meters. Colleagues have already asked for your contacts. I will gladly share and will be glad to have a new opportunity to work with you. Special thanks to the Director for the Bureau
Note: excursion "Heart of the capital» for participants of the Moscow Oncology Forum 2025. Guides - Anastasia and Maria
It was very interesting to hear how the Krasnaya district developed. Presni, how Prokhorov's figure influenced the development of our city. A pleasant dive into a quiet, previously unexplored area!
Note: we are talking about the excursion with the guide Anton
There was a great tour of the area. Patricks.
We learned a lot of new things. Anastasia is a master of her craft. The tour was exciting, not boring at all, lively and interesting. Everyone was satisfied. Full of new impressions. I definitely recommend it. You will be satisfied!
Overall, this wasn’t the first time I’ve walked around Moscow with Anton, and each time it was a real adventure!
I wanted to express my gratitude once again for the wonderful excursion on Saturday - we really enjoyed the walk, the information and the communication with you, then we discussed for a long time what everyone remembered and what struck them. It would seem that you have lived in Moscow all your life, there was Moscow studies at school, but it turns out that you still don’t know so much!! In general, thank you very much, my mother said it was the best gift for her birthday!
Note: this is about the excursion "Soul of Moscow«
I will definitely recommend this company to my friends and we will use its services ourselves.
Excellent organization of excursions, all wishes were taken into account, punctuality at the highest level
Note: Review of the excursion-performance, which the guide Alexander specially developed as part of the order "Dream Tour".
"Theater capital" - an author's route through the places of Meyerhold, Stanislavsky, Nemirovich-Danchenko, Tairov (undeservedly forgotten, it was he who created the current Pushkin Theatre on Tverskoy Boulevard).
Two and a half hours of fascinating stories and urban theatre legends. I'll tell you one:
The great composer Sergei Prokofiev lived in Kamergersky Lane. And he managed to die on the same day as Stalin. There was a terrible crush in Moscow, everything was blocked off, the entire capital wanted to say goodbye to the leader. So, to see Prokofiev off, the coffin was carried out from Kamergersky Lane on the roofs. I can vividly imagine this picture.
