Jam Session

On the 24th of February in "Ariston" café an event took place, the participant of which every admirer of guitar music aged from… and to… dreams to be.
At 2:00pm the cozy hall gathered performers that constitute the cream of the guitar world of Tashkent. Sekerov Berdan appeared as the initiator of the peculiar event, who is also, by the way, an outstanding guitarist. The members were entire dynasties of performers: Teplyashins, Inogamovs and Tashkhojaevs and their faithful friends. Speeches were short, musical compositions - expressive and dynamic. One had to see and hear this! This was a real festival, as one of the participants said. It is difficult to choose the right words for describing the state of mind of both performers and the audience. Lacking a special stage, the guitarists came out one by one from the audience into the light ray. It was hard for an outside observer to determine who is the performer and who is the listener. Probably, this is what the organizers of the festival aimed at.

Musicians famous not only in our country but also abroad (in our opinion, to a greater extent abroad) performed at the festival, which lasted from 2:00 to 6:00pm. As if they competed in mastery and the audience was the winner because they received the most precious gift.
Vitalit Ostrovskiy and Sergey Pakhotin are at the moment those guitarists that have conquered popularity with the Russian pop stars in Moscow as performers of their compositions.

According to Sekerov Berdan the audience wishes to make this festival annual. "Why not?" - Bedan replied. Sevara Nazarhan, Ravshan Namazov and Mansur Tashmatov expressed their wish to be not only the audience but also the performers next time.
