On Sunday, April 20, the Grand Bukishka educational campaign will be held - a tour of the music Moscow on trolleybuses of the route “B”, which Muscovites call “Bukashka”.
At noon on April 20, all trolleybuses “B”, following the outer side of the garden ring, will become excursion. Until 18:00 they will work in musical mode. The entrance to the trolley will be carried out according to the usual ticket.
Passengers will open the monumental panorama of the Sadovaya ensemble along with the music that was created here: from verses to symphonies, from buffoons to the present day. Grand Bukashka will remind you of how Savva Mamontov’s estate in Sadovo-Spaska came up with the production of the operas of Rimsky-Korsakov, how in the restaurant Sofia on the triumphal Gennady Shpalikov wrote the words “I walk around Moscow”. About how the chansonnier of Yves Montan and the Peruvian diva Ima Sumak spoke in Moscow, about the house on the carriage, where the group “Sounds Mu” originated, how Julius Kim translated the song of Rita Pavone “I love paste” and many other stories.
The mission of the project is an emotional, musical and urban rebranding of the Moscow key highway - a garden ring. A pedestrian tour of the musical and theater history of the Triumphal Square is also being prepared for the participants of the Grand Bukashka. It will be conducted by students of the Higher School of Higher Professional Education.
The historian-urbanist and culturologist, the author of Klynnochi and the creator of the Moskultprog project Sergey Nikitin are preparing a new educational initiative. The project is created with the support of the chief architect of Moscow, the departments of transport and culture of the city of Moscow.
Grand Bukashka is dedicated to the 50th anniversary of the company Melody, the archive of which will provide most of the music. On April 20, a special Grand Bukashka application will work for smartphones: with its help it will be possible to make a trip to music Moscow at any convenient time - it will include all the stories, musical excerpts and illustrations of the tour.
