The idea to record "Minin's Choir for children"CD, which includes songs from soviet cartoons and musical fairy tales ("The Flying Ship", "The Bremen Town Musicians,"Goodbye, Mary Poppins", and so on) was first announced in September of 2016, after a concert at the health care center for children in Solntsevo, when artists were convinced that through these songs a little man, at least temporarily, forget about the pain he had faced by.
Unfortunately, not all the children can listen to a concert in the beautiful hall - many of them chained to a bed and listen to music only if they are in radio-equipped rooms.
