Masha Rasputina brought the audience to tears with Derbenev’s prophecy about Russia

The singer spoke about the role of Kobzon in her destiny

Composer Igor Mateta celebrated his anniversary. On this occasion, the musician staged a big concert in Moscow with the participation of star friends. Many famous performers congratulated Mateta: Soso Pavliashvili, Larisa Chernikova, who returned from the USA, who became famous in the 90s thanks to the hit “I Love You, Dima”, actress Tatyana Abramova, Lev Leshchenko. Behind the scenes, Lev Valeryanovich was in a great mood: he warmly greeted the Radchenko brothers and constantly joked.

Masha Rasputina, for whom Mateta wrote many hits, appeared towards the end. On stage, the star recalled how their collaboration with the composer began. It turned out that in the late 80s, Mateta himself found a future star and offered to perform “Play, Musician.”

“Igor went on radio stations and programs for a whole year, but no one took the song on the air,” Maria recalled. – “What kind of Negro style of performance is this?” – they told Igor. I did not care. I sang in a restaurant, earned good money at that time and did not dream of stardom.

Kobzon helped. Joseph Davydovich knew Mateta and did everything to have the composition shown on TV. After the first broadcast in “Song of the Year,” the lives of Rasputina and Mateta changed: the song immediately became a hit.

That evening Rasputina sang “Play, Musician,” and “You Fell from the Moon,” and “Mom’s Dreams.” There was also a patriotic bloc. After another hit, Rasputina remembered Derbenev’s prophecy.

“Leonid Petrovich Derbenev was a man of genius,” Rasputina continued. – He foresaw everything. He felt that time would pass, and the enemies of Russia would again gather and rebel against us. This is what is happening now.

When Rasputina sang a song based on Derbenev’s poems “Live, Country,” the audience stood up at the lines “An eternal country will live in the world, Whatever you do, it will not go anywhere.” Many spectators could not hold back their tears.

“Back in the 90s, when I sang this song, people stood up and cried,” the “MK” singer admitted. “And today the situation has reached a critical moment, when it is no longer possible without military action.”
