Wednesday after receiving an anonymous bomb threat warning.
Video from the Rassvet cultural center shows two uniformed officers
disrupting Russian pianist Alexei Lyubimov’s performance of Ukrainian
composer Valentin Silvestrov’s song cycle “Stufen” accompanied by verses
of classic Russian poets.
Lyubimov continues to play a song by Austrian composer Franz
Schubert as the policemen make gestures to the audience. Once Lyubimov
finishes playing, the audience’s applause drowns out the policemen's
words." MT
