Thousands of people from Üsküdar and various districts of Istanbul filled the concert area hours in advance for the concert of young pianist and drummer Evgeny Grinko, who won hearts with his song “Valse”, which was watched more than 30 million times, and made his name known to the world in a short time. When the concert time came, Harem Square turned into a magnificent feast area that witnessed an extraordinary performance.

“For me, music is the language of emotions”
Grinko

The artist, who greeted those who came to listen to him by saying “My name is Evgeny Grinko, here are my friends” in Turkish, made the following statements about the universality of music:

“Music is a universal language. When we speak a language among ourselves, we use words that have meaning, but none of them have the meaning of the notes. It is just like a foreign language, you understand what it means, but you cannot explain it to anyone else. For me, music is the language of emotions and everyone attributes meaning to music with their emotions.” .”

Evgeny Grinko added his skills on the guitar and drums, as well as the piano, to his stage performance with a large violin family and 5 accordion musicians. In the concert, which lasted approximately 1.5 hours, the Russian pianist performed “Valse”, “Epilogue”, “Carousel”, “Faulkner’s Sleep”, “Field”, “Once Upon A Time”, “Prologue”, “Noir”, “Winter Sunshine”. He performed his compositions such as ” and “Serenade”. During the concert, the artist was accompanied by Vlada Ponyatovskaya, Anna Romanova and Pavel Mazkevich on violin, Yana Chekina on cello, and Evgenya Popova on accordion.
