Siberia’s story is traditionally one of exiles, penal colonies and unmarked graves. Yet there is another tale to tell. Dotted throughout this remote land are pianos - grand instruments created during the boom years of the 19th century and humble, Soviet-made uprights that found their way into equally modest homes. They tell the story of how, ever since entering Russian culture under the influence of Catherine the Great, piano music has run through the country like blood.

Суздаль… Сердце Золотого кольца, известный туристический центр России, но что мы о нем знаем? Василий Берг написал, по его собственным словам, "не путеводитель", а "биографию древнего города". На страницах этой удивительной книги разворачиваются события более чем 800-летней истории Суздаля. Восстания волхвов и горожан, не желавших принимать христианскую веру и подчиняться приезжавшим в город епископов, а потом – превращение в великий духовный центр Русской земли. Героическое сопротивление монгольским захватчикам и – новое, неоднократное на протяжении истории города, возрождение из пепла.

Впервые посетив Суздаль, человек как бы попадает под сильное малообъяснимое воздействие этого города. В чем секрет такого очарования? Первое, что ты видишь вокруг себя, оказавшись в Суздале, — это большое количество храмов и монастырей разных периодов постройки и разных стилей. Именно этот удивительный архитектурный ансамбль своей красотой и пленяет душу человека. Второй особенностью города является его структура, она во многом соответствует строению средневековых русских городов.
