This summer, Leonid Agutin will have a grand performance in Sochi!

Leonid Agutin has been an important figure in the world of popular music for many years, invariably collecting full halls. His father, Nikolai Agutin, was not only a musician and singer, but also a composer, concert organizer and music critic. In the past, he performed with the Blue Guitars ensemble, which gave the Russian stage such performers as Igor Krutoy and Alexander Malinin. It was Nikolai who first noticed his son's abilities and convinced him to get a good musical education. Leonid graduated from the Moscow State Institute of Culture. He began his career in various musical groups, but real fame came to him with the beginning of his solo career in the early 1990s.

Agutin is a gifted composer and songwriter, whose sincere lyrics resonate with a wide audience. His music is easily recognizable due to the combination of Latin American rhythms with elements of reggae and blues. The singer constantly experiments with styles, adding pop music and jazz motifs to his compositions, which makes his work unique. His debut album "Barefoot Boy" brought him wide fame. Leonid often performs duets with famous artists, including his wife Angelica Varum, Vladimir Presnyakov and the group "Otpetye Moshenniki". These joint projects became hits and enriched his musical palette. Such compositions as "Hop Hey Lala Lay", "Barefoot Boy" and "On the Lilac Moon" are still loved by listeners.

Speaking several languages, Agutin successfully collaborates with foreign performers. For example, in 2005 he recorded an album with jazz guitarist Al Di Meola, which for a long time remained at the top of the European and American charts. At the end of 2020, his composition "Just a Rainy Day" from the album "La Vida Cosmopolita" was noted at the "USA Songwriting Competition", and the duet with Diego Torres "Quédate" received an award for virtual arts.

Leonid Agutin's musical career has been marked by numerous awards and prizes. He is the winner of such prestigious awards as "Golden Gramophone" and "Song of the Year". Many of his albums have gone platinum, and his concerts are always sold out. His success is the result of many years of work and dedication to his craft.

Agutin's family life is also admirable: his marriage to Angelica Varum is considered one of the strongest in Russian show business. They not only created a harmonious family, but also successfully work together on stage.

Buying tickets to Leonid Agutin's concert at the Bolshoi Sports Palace is a unique opportunity to enjoy a live performance of new songs from the album "Vse ne zarya", as well as hear your favorite hits from past years.
