    № 4 АПРЕЛЬ 2006 APRIL ПОЧТОВЫЙ ЯЩИК / POST BOX Роскошный музыкальный ковер Каждый, кто пришел вечером 28 ноября в киевский Украинский дом, совершил удивительное путешествие в мир восточной сказки. Луч- шие артисты Туркменистана расстелили перед восхищенным залом роскошный музыкальный ковер, украшенный танцевальными узорами. Сочетание в национальных костюмах ярких узоров и стро- гих очертаний гармонировало с прихотливой ритмикой и ладовой концентричностью звуковой палитры. Обрамление концерта нацио- нальными песенно-танцевальными номерами способствовало целостности общего впечатления. Танцевальная пластика деву- шек, темпераментный порыв юношей дополнялись выразительным звучанием красавиц вокалисток. Финальный номер с участием всего коллектива звучал под овации вставшего зала, его восторженная реакция свидетельствовала о несомненном успехе столь яркого события, как Дни культуры Турк- менистана в Украине. Елена Галузевская, кандидат искусствоведения Киев Magnificent music carpet Everyone who came in the evening of November 28 to Ukrainian house in Kiev has made a wonderful journey to the world of Oriental fairy tale. The best artists of Turkmenistan spread out a magnificent music carpet decorated with dancy patterns before delighted audience. Combination of bright patterns and strict outlines in folk costume harmonized with whimsical rhythmic and saturation of sound palette. Concert fullness with national song-and-dance turns encouraged impression’s cohesive- ness. Eurhythmies of dancing-girls as well as hot inspiration of young men were supplemented by eloquent tone of wonderful singers. Final turn with participation of the whole ensemble received the great ovation. Rapturous applause demonstrated unqualified success of such a bright event as Days of Turkmenistan culture in Ukraine.
