At the concert of the Soviet and Russian singer Lev Leshchenko on February 1, dedicated to the artist’s 80th birthday, composer Vyacheslav Dobrynin did not take the stage. The 76-year-old maestro sat all evening in the fifth row of the auditorium of the Moscow Crocus City Hall, and only during the intermission with difficulty stepped out into the lobby.
About it informs “TVNZ”.
The hero of the day turned to Dobrynin from the stage with words of gratitude for hundreds of songs.
During the intermission, the composer went out to the lobby and found the strength to take photos with fans. They asked if he would come on stage.
“No. I’m sick. I really want to already. But this year is unlikely. Health does not allow,” he replied.
Dobrynin went back to the hall, supported by the arm of a comrade.
Dobrynin has been struggling with the consequences of a serious illness for the fourth year. In the fall of 2018, information appeared that the musician was hospitalized with a stroke. Later, Lev Leshchenko explained that in fact the composer had a transient ischemic attack – a microstroke without consequences in the form of paralysis and damage to brain tissue. Doctors warned that after such an attack, a long rehabilitation is necessary.
Due to health problems, Dobrynin has not appeared at public events for a long time and does not participate in concerts. The last time he went on stage was in December 2019 at the big group show “Autoradio Disco”.
