On February 7, 2024, ONRS hosted a concert by the legendary Boris Grebenshchikov and his band BG+. The performance took place in the Holywell Music Room, Europe's oldest custom-built concert hall. Approximately 200 people attended the event, which was a resounding success.

Grebenshchikov, a major star of Russian rock music, former leader of the band "Aquarium," and public intellectual, holds a special place in our hearts. In these challenging times, he has remained true to the ideals expressed in his songs that many of us grew up with. Accompanied by the "BG+" band, he performed tracks from his new album BOGRUKINOG, as well as beloved "Aquarium" classics. As an added bonus, the concert included a Q&A session.

Below, you'll find a video recap of the event. The film features an introduction to Boris, an exclusive interview, audience reactions, and highlights from the concert.
