Our site and the Associazione “Evgenij Polyakov” are three years old. Three years ago, we asked those who knew the Maestro to give us three adjectives to describe him. Those adjectives are still clearly visible on our homepage and still help visitors to learn about the innumerable facets of his great personality. Today, to celebrate this milestone, we asked some of the main protagonists of his ballets and his very close collaborators a little of their precious time to tell us some moments of their artistic experience with Genia. The questions were proposed by the musicologist Luca Berni, whom we thank, a great friend of Polyakov. Sincere thanks to those who wanted to respond, for the renewed demonstration of affection and esteem for Genia. Their personal memories thus enliven our Foyer.
