An excerpt characterizing the Russians (group)

“I’m telling you,” Denisov shouted, “he’s a nice little guy.”
“That’s better, Count,” the headquarters captain repeated, as if for his recognition they were beginning to call him a title. - Come and apologize, your Excellency, yes sir.
“Gentlemen, I’ll do everything, no one will hear a word from me,” Rostov said in a pleading voice, “but I can’t apologize, by God, I can’t, whatever you want!” How will I apologize, like a little one, asking for forgiveness?
Denisov laughed.
- It's worse for you. Bogdanich is vindictive, you will pay for your stubbornness,” said Kirsten.
- By God, not stubbornness! I can’t describe to you what a feeling, I can’t...
“Well, it’s your choice,” said the headquarters captain. - Well, where did this scoundrel go? – he asked Denisov.
“He said he was sick, and the manager ordered him to be expelled,” Denisov said.
“It’s a disease, there’s no other way to explain it,” said the captain at the headquarters.
“It’s not a disease, but if he doesn’t catch my eye, I’ll kill him!” – Denisov shouted bloodthirstyly.
Zherkov entered the room.
- How are you? - the officers suddenly turned to the newcomer.
- Let's go, gentlemen. Mak surrendered as a prisoner and with the army, completely.
- You're lying!
- I saw it myself.
- How? Have you seen Mack alive? with arms, with legs?
- Hike! Hike! Give him a bottle for such news. How did you get here?
“They sent me back to the regiment again, for the devil’s sake, for Mack.” The Austrian general complained. I congratulated him on Mak’s arrival... Are you from the bathhouse, Rostov?
- Here, brother, we have such a mess for the second day.
The regimental adjutant came in and confirmed the news brought by Zherkov. We were ordered to perform tomorrow.
- Let's go, gentlemen!
- Well, thank God, we stayed too long.

Kutuzov retreated to Vienna, destroying behind him bridges on the rivers Inn (in Braunau) and Traun (in Linz). On October 23, Russian troops crossed the Enns River. Russian convoys, artillery and columns of troops in the middle of the day stretched through the city of Enns, on this side and on the other side of the bridge.
The day was warm, autumn and rainy. The vast perspective that opened up from the elevation where the Russian batteries stood protecting the bridge was suddenly covered with a muslin curtain of slanting rain, then suddenly expanded, and in the light of the sun objects as if covered with varnish became visible far away and clearly. A town could be seen underfoot with its white houses and red roofs, a cathedral and a bridge, on both sides of which masses of Russian troops poured, crowding. At the bend of the Danube one could see ships, an island, and a castle with a park, surrounded by the waters of the Ensa confluence with the Danube; one could see the left rocky bank of the Danube covered with pine forests with the mysterious distance of green peaks and blue gorges. The towers of the monastery were visible, protruding from behind a pine forest that seemed untouched; far ahead on the mountain, on the other side of Ens, enemy patrols could be seen.
Between the guns, at a height, the chief of the rearguard, a general, and a retinue officer stood in front, examining the terrain through a telescope. Somewhat behind, Nesvitsky, sent from the commander-in-chief to the rearguard, sat on the trunk of a gun.
The Cossack accompanying Nesvitsky handed over a handbag and a flask, and Nesvitsky treated the officers to pies and real doppelkümel. The officers joyfully surrounded him, some on their knees, some sitting cross-legged on the wet grass.
- Yes, this Austrian prince was not a fool to build a castle here. Nice place. Why don't you eat, gentlemen? - Nesvitsky said.
“I humbly thank you, prince,” answered one of the officers, enjoying talking with such an important staff official. - Beautiful place. We walked past the park itself, saw two deer, and what a wonderful house!
“Look, prince,” said the other, who really wanted to take another pie, but was ashamed, and who therefore pretended that he was looking around the area, “look, our infantry have already climbed there.” Over there, in the meadow outside the village, three people are dragging something. “They will break through this palace,” he said with visible approval.
“Both,” said Nesvitsky. “No, but what I would like,” he added, chewing the pie in his beautiful, moist mouth, “is to climb up there.”
He pointed to a monastery with towers visible on the mountain. He smiled, his eyes narrowed and lit up.
- But that would be good, gentlemen!
The officers laughed.
- At least scare these nuns. Italians, they say, are young. Really, I would give five years of my life!

Evgeny Dryashev. Biography.
Born on August 5, 1989 in one of the outbacks of the Kurgan region. I took up music by accident, going to music school at the age of 7. Then I still didn’t understand anything and my parents decided everything for me. A serious passion for music appeared in middle school, when the guys and I decided to put together our own team. The group did not last long, but it gave impetus to my future plans.
After finishing 9th grade and waving my hand to everyone, I moved to the glorious city of Yekaterinburg, where I entered music school. school named after P.I. Tchaikovsky. During my studies there were many groups, a lot of practice and development of me as a musician, but I wanted more. And after graduating from college, having received a diploma, the very next day he left to conquer the cultural capital. In St. Petersburg I entered St. Petersburg State University of Culture and Culture, but my joy did not last long, I was drafted into the army straight from the university dormitory. Yes yes yes, this is not a joke. After serving, I can say to myself “I am Russian,” because I paid my debt to my homeland.
Having returned from the army, I am still studying at the university and improving myself, because I can’t do anything else.

Dmitry Orlov. Biography.
The most serious of all the participants behind the scenes and the funniest on stage.
Born 7.12.1981. in Novosibirsk. Then he moved with his parents to Novoaltaisk, where he began to study virtuoso playing the accordion and clarinet. He was a local star! I rocked with the folklore ensemble of grandmothers. I looked very harmonious in their group. Hmmm, and how did I exchange my grandmothers for the Russian group?! Joke J Of course, I didn’t exchange anyone for anyone, I simply entered a medical university, graduated from it and received the specialty of a psychotherapist and sexologist. Now I perfectly combine two professions - musician and psychotherapist in one person. You know, friends, anything can happen in life, but here, please, your doctor.
Without leaving the guitar for a second, he moved to St. Petersburg in 2006, managed to get married and give birth to a daughter. Wow! You need to know how.
I got into the Russian group by accident. At first I didn't like the group. All the members of the group seemed like “my clients” to me, everyone had their own oddities. I thought I’d start treating him slowly, cure everyone and return to the ensemble with the grannies. But as it turned out later, it turned out to be pointless to treat the musicians, because... musicians are an incurable and peculiar people. Well, then Grisha Semin (soloist) began to do shamanism, read conspiracies, and with his own strength pulled me into the group. That's how I ended up in the Russian group.
But seriously, of course, no one had to be treated. They called me and offered me to become a guitarist for the Russian group. I decided to try my hand at a new genre, and you know, I liked it. The team is very friendly, cheerful, and, most importantly, everyone is very passionate about working in this group. Everyone is musically educated, which makes working at the Russians even more enjoyable.

Sergey Terentyev. Biography.
Born and raised in the city of Syktyvkar.
At the age of 13 he began attending a music studio, and in 2007 he graduated from the College of Arts of the Komi Republic.
In the same year he moved to St. Petersburg, where he studied for some time at the University of Culture.
Currently, he is involved in many groups of different stylistic orientations, from jazz to rock and hip-hop.
He regularly participates in the largest festivals in the country, conducts teaching activities and also actively works as a session musician in the studio.

Grigory Semin. Biography.
He was born on March 16, 1981 in Arkhangelsk, and since he started singing earlier than speaking, upon reaching the age of 5 and a half, he was sent to a music school to learn to play the piano and choral singing. Despite his young age, he was not at all childish about his studies and sat at the instrument and chanted from morning to evening, seven days a week and almost without breaks. My dear neighbors of that time, if you are reading this, it means your torment with my music was not in vain - thank you and forgive me.
As a teenager he was difficult, troubled, he was a lot of hooligans, fought, and at the same time he was a musician. I graduated from school with a certificate, having completed only a year of education. But even after giving up music, I still always loved to sing songs. However, I no longer wanted to study music seriously. A case helped: my good friend, who worked as a singer in a restaurant, had a bad cold and asked him to help out - he suggested that I try myself on the restaurant stage. I learned a program of fifty songs in a day, and with almost no rehearsal, I worked, as it seemed to me then, three luxurious evening concerts and received everything an artist needs: prolonged applause and a decent fee (just in case, I was 15 years old at the time and I studied in the 9th grade of a secondary school, so the fee seemed really decent to me). And here I clearly understood what kind of life I want to live! After this episode, after finishing school, I entered the Arkhangelsk Music College in a pop singing class. And the restaurant scene has become an integral part of my life, I still haven’t really left it - no, no, but when I jump out, I start drinking!
In my hometown, I very actively participated in everything where I could show myself! I remember that I always wanted to be brighter than everyone else, I tried to stand out by all available means, for example, in my last years of college I worked at the radio station Europe Plus Arkhangelsk, where I shamelessly used my official position and broadcast my songs.
After finishing his studies in Arkhangelsk, he moved to St. Petersburg in 2003 and entered St. Petersburg State University of Culture and Culture, where I still study. Those. Some of those who entered and studied with me are now teaching me.
I also got into “Russians” by accident, I went to the casting for fun and didn’t expect at all that I would stay here, but it happened and you know, friends, I’m very happy about it!
