Glebov biography

Glebov is connected by many of the best pages of the musical culture of modern Belarus, primarily in the symphonic, ballet and cantata-oratian genres. Undoubtedly, the composer’s tendency to large stage forms, in addition to ballets, he created the opera “Your Spring” -, the operetta “The parable of the heirs, or the scandal in the underworld” -, the musical comedy “Millionaire” - the path of Glebov was not easy - only at the age of 20 he was able to proceed to professional classes of music, which was always for young men.

In his family, hereditary railway workers were always loved to sing. Even in childhood, not knowing the notes, the future composer learned to play the guitar, balalaika and mandolin. In the city of her success was given to Glebov self -confidence. Having moved to Mogilev, where he works as an inspector of wagons, Glebov happens in class at a local music school. The decisive meeting with the famous Belarusian musician I.

Zhinovich, who advised to enter the conservatory. Working a lot and fruitfully, Glebov was forever carried away by the Belarusian folklore, which deeply entered his work. The composer constantly writes works for the orchestra of Belarusian folk instruments, for various Solo tools. Glebov’s activity is multifaceted. Already since the city, work as the head of the pop-symphonic orchestra of the GOSTRODRODOM BSSR, in the movie by the musical editor of Belarusfilm, at the Republican Theater of Young Spectators, the conductor and composer actively influenced creativity.

So, the children's repertoire remains the unchanged love of Glebov’s song, the oratorio “Invitation to the country of childhood” -, instrumental plays, etc. However, despite the variety of hobbies, Glebov is primarily a symphonist composer.

Along with the software works of "Legend Poem" -; "Polesie suite" -; "Alpine symphony -ballad" -; 3 suits from the ballet "chosen one" -; 3 suits from the ballet "Til Ulenspiegel",; The concert for the Call orchestra - and others. Glebov created 5 symphonies, 2 of which are also the first programmates, the “partisan” - and the fifth, “to the world” - the most important features of the composer’s artistic personality were embodied in the symphonies - the desire to reflect the wealth of the surrounding life, the complex spiritual world of the modern generation, the drama of the era.

It is no accident that one of his best works - the second symphony - the composer dedicated youth. The composer’s handwriting is characterized by the severity of expressive means, the relief of thematism of often folklore origin, the exact feeling of form, the excellent possession of the orchestra palette, especially the generous in its symphonic scores. The qualities of Glebov’s ballets, who took a strong place not only on the domestic stage, but were also set up abroad, are unusually interesting, but were also set abroad.

The great advantage of the composer’s ballet music is its plasticity, a close connection with choreography. The theatrical, spectacular nature of the ballet has determined the special breadth of those and plots facing different eras and countries. At the same time, the genre is interpreted very flexibly, varying from small characteristic miniatures, a philosophical fairy tale to multi -act musical dramas, telling about the historical fate of the people "Dream" -; "Belarusian partisan" -; The choreographic novels of Hiroshima, Blues, Front, Dollar, Spanish Dance, Musketeers, Souvenirs -; "Alpine ballad" -; "Chosen one" -; "Til Ulenspiegel" -; Three miniatures for the ensemble of folk dance of the BSSR -; "Little Prince" - the art of Glebov always gravitates to citizenship.

This is clearly manifested in its cantata-oratorial compositions. But the anti-war theme so close to artists in Belarus, which was so close to artists in the ballet "Alpine ballad", in the fifth symphony, in the vocal symphonic cycle, "I remember" and in the "Ballad of Memory", in the "Ballad of Memory", in a voting concert with the orchestra, got a special sound.

The recognition, true to himself, Evgeny Glebov continues to "actively defend the right to live."
