Old talk
editIt is now over 10 years since Serega, Sergei Kuryokhin, made his last move to another world. He was an artist in the true meaning of this word, ARTIST, with all contradictions and complexity of his unique personality and his equally unique art. We knew each other in Leningrad since the late 1970s. Once in 1986, after his concert with "Aquarium" he told me "I need two pianos next to each other, I want to play two pianos at the same time." I had two pianos at my place on the Nevsky Prospect, so he came with Kolya Gusev, another good pianist who played with several popular bands in St. Petersburg, and they played my two pianos for about four hours non-stop. It was a different kind of music, Serega had such a great fun playing with Gusev, so I opened all my windows, and the neighbours came to listen to their performance. Next day Serega called again; "We have some ideas, may we play for a few more days at your place?" For the next two weeks they made my pianos sound like I never heard before. Eventually, Serega and Kolya Gusev developed a piano duo show, blending several styles from ragtime and boogie-woogie to rock'n roll and avant-garde into a cross-style performance, that included everything, from rock and movies to jazz and classical concertos. Their playing was like a four-handed Liberace, but much better in terms of technique and inventiveness. I did not make any recordings of their playing at my home, albeit I saw somebody was recording their performances later on stage. Guys, if you have that recording, please come out and respond to this call. Your cooperation is highly appreciated. Sincerely, Steveshelokhonov 09:10, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
BBC series 'Comrades'
editSergey Kuryokhin featured in episodes of the 1983/84 BBC TV series Comrades , and contributed the modern part of the theme music. His music group "Popular Mechanics" (if I recall the name correctly) featured too. There is a Russian language version of some of this available on YouTube: Comrades: аll that jazz / Товарищи: весь этот джаз (1985) Sasha (talk) 11:37, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
