Singer Alexander Solodukha:
In Memory were the first two of the festival - 1993 and 1994. They were the brightest. Belarusian Sanremo - so said all the artists. There was such an atmosphere! In my opinion, then there was a small decline. But now there is a feeling that the festival revives. Gathered here today are all the artists of Belarus, a full house, elegant weather, great amphitheater. The festival is held not for show, not for the visual signal, but in order to show their own, national, Belarus. By the way, there is a parallel with the "Slavonic Bazaar in Vitebsk". Although there and the city more and wider geography of participants.
