Turetsky Choir (Russian: Хор Турецкого) (art group) is a Russian men's a cappella ensemble and musical collective under the direction of Mikhail Turetsky. Their voices range from tenore contraltino to basso profundo.

Background

The Turetsky Men's Choir was established at the Moscow Choral Synagogue. The chorus made its debut in 1990 with Jewish liturgical and folk music in the philharmonic halls of Tallinn and Kaliningrad. Their repertoire has grown since to include opera, spiritual, folk and pop music in 10 different languages.

In his blog "Teruah Jewish Music" Jack Zaientz wrote, "I don't know if any of the choir members, including Turetsky, are Jewish or what being Jewish might mean to them... And I'm not sure how much it matters. Seeing a bunch of seriously good male vocalists singing Jewish music to a huge crowd of Russians, in the face of the centuries of discrimination that Russian Jews have faced, does my heart proud."[1]

"Very few people were interested in that kind of music at the time, and no one at all in the post-Soviet countries… … … So when I got an opportunity, I did some research in libraries in New York and Jerusalem and discovered this profound, diverse, and very stylish kind of music that was accessible at a basic human level… … … We understood that we had to have a broader scope and began to include secular material in our programs… … … Today, our repertoire contains music from the last four centuries – from Handel to Soviet pop hits, chanson, and the best examples of contemporary pop culture…"

Mikhail Turetsky, National Artist of the Russian Federation, The founder and the leader of The Turetsky Men's Choir [2]

Soloists

Soloist Started to sing in the choir
Mikhail Turetsky — tenor, National Artist of the Russian Federation, founder and the leader of the "Turetsky Choir" Art Group.

Mikhail was born in Moscow in 1962. He received a degree in «Choir Conducting» from the Gnesins' Academy of Music. Following an internship as a symphonic conductor, he conducted at the Children's Chapel, the Political Song Ensemble and the choir of the Yuri Sherling Theater. Since 1990 he is the organizer, conductor and art-project director (choirmaster) of the male choir of the Moscow Choral Synagogue. Now it is well known as the Choir of Mikhail Turetsky (Turetsky's Choir).

"I can't even imagine myself being in another field of activity but music… It is absolutely impossible to perform complicated compositions without a conductor. While conducting the choir, I try at the same time to involve the whole auditorium into our musical dialogue. The 21st century might be by right called the age of information and professionalism. When I hear a splendid harmonic sound, see a real stage direction and set design, I can then realize that we deal with a group of true professionals"

Mikhail Turetsky[5]

1989
Alex Alexandrov — dramatic baritone

He is one of the Choir's youngest soloists as well as the most veteran. Alex is also an assistant choreographer. Many of the dance pieces in our concerts were staged with his help. He perfectly covers the voices of other pop stars like Toto Cutugno and Boris Moiseev.

Born in Moscow in 1972. He graduated from the Choral Singing College named after Sveshnikov and The Gnesins' Academy of Music.

"The Turetsky Choir is my whole life, or at least a major part of it. Here I grew up, and formed my personality. I cannot imagine my life without the Choir. The Maestro is not just a leader and the founder of the choir, but a second father to me… I believe in myself. I have something to aim for, and I just have a pleasure of living."

Alex Alexandrov[5]

1990
Evgeny Kulmisbass-profondo, director of the choir in the past, poet.

Bass-profundo is a rear natural voice and no ordinary bass. It acquires very low notes, much lower than in a bass. This sound is more authentically cantorial.

He was born near the city of Chelyabinsk in the Southern Urals in 1966. His rise in the musical world began as a pianist. He graduated Gnessins Russian Music Academy, and then became a postgraduate specializing in Musicology (the Department of Music History, Theory, and Composing). Evgeny Kulmis is the author of poems, translations of selected musical compositions, executed by the choir. For example, he wrote the text accompanying the original compositions in "Twilight" of the Electric Light Orchestra.

"This is my something that I like and this is what I can do. Probably I shall die in the choir... I feel much more confident as a performer in the team.... My education is as a theorist and not training as a singer. But now singing has become my profession, my life."

Evgeny Kulmis[5]

1991
Evgeny Tulinov — dramatic operatic tenor, Distinguished Artist of the Russian Federation, assistant art director and a professional choir conductor.

Born in Moscow in 1964. He graduated from the Music College at the Moscow Conservatory and from The Gnesins' Academy of Music. In his first student years, Tulinov sang liturgy in the Church of Saint John the Warrior, conducted the choir at the Recreation Centre and worked in the "Male Chamber Choir" conducted by V. M. Rybin.

"Singing in an operatic style is my greatest pleasure. I look at singing from an actor's point of view. I imagine how I would have acted the character with all the drama... We are all creative associates, we are like some substance that exists outside of the real world. We understand each other and speak the same language."

Evgeny Tulinov[5]

1991
Mikhail Kuznetsovtenor altino, Distinguished Artist of the Russian Federation. Tenor altino is very rare natural voice. He can sing both male and female arias.

Born in Moscow in 1962, Kuznetsov graduated from The Gnesins' Academy of Music. Then he sang in the Moscow Chamber Choir conducted by Vladimir Minin and in the Male Choir of the publishing department of the "Moscow Patriarchy" magazine.

"The choir for me is like home. Here I can feel my professional growth and satisfy my personal and professional ambitions. I feel the desire to live and to work more and more… Every time that I go on stage, I am trying to give the audience as much love and warmth as I can give."

Mikhail Kuznetsov[5]

1992
Oleg Blyahorchuk, lyric tenor, multi-instrumentalist (he plays the piano, guitar, accordion, melodica).

Was born in 1966 in the city of Minsk in Belarus. He studied at Minsk Musical College.

Rovdo, a student of People's Artist of the USSR A.V. Sveshnikov. Blyahorchuk then became a soloist of the concert orchestra of the Republic of Belarus under the leadership of Mikhail Finberg.

"What I do think now about life and work? I am happy to be in demand as a musician. Not all of my classmates and friends are so lucky. The Choir is everything to me now – it is my work and my way of life, my way of earning my living altogether."

Oleg Blyahorchuk[5]

1996
Igor Zverevbass

Born in 1968, in Moscow Region. He graduated from The Department of Choral Conducting of the Moscow Academy of Arts and Culture. He worked as a professional singer in the Academic Song and Dance Company of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of the Interior of the Russian Federation and then in the Polyansky's State Academic Symphonic Capella.

"I understood that working with this group could give me, as an artist, a great opportunity for self-fulfillment and professional growth… Now I feel the energy of my own voice and I am more confident. It's like feeling your new self"

Igor Zverev[5]

2003
Boris Goryachev — lyric baritone

Born in Moscow, in 1971. Graduated from the Moscow Conservatory. Boris Goryachev worked in the Men's Chamber Choir "Akathist" under the management AV Malyutin.

Boris and the "Turetsky Choir" met in 2003.

"After a while you get used to the rapid pace. Now I cannot imagine my life without concerts and trips. Do you know what happiness is for a musician? When you feel confident in yourself, when you have a certain niche, when you see the grateful eyes of the audience, when you know that even that success does not fully reveal your voice capacity and that there is still much ahead..."

Boris Goryachev[5]

2003
Konstantin Kabo — baritone tenor

Born in Moscow in 1974. Graduated from Sveshnikov Musical College and The Russian University of Theatre Arts (GITIS). He sang in musicals including "Nord-Ost", "12 Chairs", "Romeo and Juliet", "Mama Mia". Simultaneously, he wrote the music for the program "The Circus on Ice".

"I am pleased and happy. In the Choir I have found my "I". Work in the group gives me a huge charge of energy, which I gladly share with the public, as well as with people close to me"

Konstantin Kabo[5]

2007
Vyacheslav Freshcounter-tenor (highest pitch of all male voices, which is equal to female contralto or mezzo-soprano).

Born in Moscow in 1982. He graduated from the Department of Music and Fine Arts of J. Gutenberg University in Mainz, (Germany).

"I was not a professional singer. I can even say I was just a guy who had a good voice. There were millions of guys just like me… I recorded several songs from the repertoire of “Queen” and also some classical compositions and mailed all this to the Choir's office. Several months later I was invited for a live audition in Moscow. That was a miracle for me… Meeting and working with the Choir was one of the greatest good fortunes in my life. As a young musician it is an honor share the stage with professionals, to absorb their experience, their stage skills, their vocal skills, their acting skills. I will try to match the level of the group and to grow as a professional."
