“It's too sad to say anything right now. We were just very friendly. You have to get used to it, ”Hvorostovsky’s friend, singer and composer Alexander Gradsky told RBC. “Everyone thought that this could happen, but when it happens, you understand how disgusting this event is,” he concluded.
Another friend of Hvorostovsky, People's Artist of Russia Igor Butman, called the opera singer "a great artist." “You can talk about him for a very long time and a lot. I know that he was sick, and his illness [was] very bad,” he said, noting that “this is a huge loss and grief.” “The man was good and kind, talented,” Butman concluded.
Vladimir Kudashev, a classmate of the singer, soloist of the Moscow Novaya Opera Theater, brought his condolences to the family and friends of Hvorostovsky on the death of the artist. “This is a huge loss for the world opera. We are all mourning,” he told RBC, adding that this is “of course, a predictable end.” “But we all hoped that he would be able to overcome this disease. But, unfortunately, the disease took over,” said Kudashev.
Hvorostovsky's illness became known in 2015. Then the artist announced that he was suffering from a brain tumor and was starting treatment. Subsequently, because of this, the opera singer repeatedly canceled his performances. In particular, in connection with this, Hvorostovsky's concert in Vienna was canceled in September last year, and in Moscow in December of the same year. Later that month, the singer withdrew from opera performances, and in June 2017, the artist's planned performances for the 2017/18 season at the Vienna State Opera.
A month ago, on October 11, the Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper reported the death of Hvorostovsky without indicating the source of the information. After that, State Duma deputy Elena Mizulina and singer Sergey Lazarev expressed their condolences. A few hours later, information about the death of the artist, his director Mark Hildrew. In "Komsomolskaya Pravda" this material was then called a "puncture", promising to conduct in connection with this in the editorial office "".
Hvorostovsky's friend and former Presidential Commissioner for Children's Rights Pavel Astakhov later told RBC that the publication about the death of the singer had a sleepless night in the artist's family. “They received calls all night. Everyone was on edge. Very scary information,” said Astakhov.
The artist was born in 1962 in Krasnoyarsk. In 1982 he graduated from the music department of the Krasnoyarsk Pedagogical College. A.M. Gorky, and in the mid-1980s - the vocal faculty of the Krasnoyarsk State Institute of Arts, class of Professor Ekaterina Iofel.
In 1987, the singer became the winner of the All-Union Glinka Vocal Competition, and a year later he won the International Vocal Competition in Toulouse. In 1989, Hvorostovsky won the prestigious vocal competition in Cardiff, where the unofficial title of "the best voice in the world" is awarded.
After his debut in Tchaikovsky's The Queen of Spades at the Nice Opera, Hvorostovsky began performing at the world's leading opera stages such as Covent Garden, the Metropolitan Opera, the Paris Opera, the Bavarian and Vienna State Operas, La Scala, the Lyric Opera of Chicago, and also at the most prestigious festivals, including Salzburg. Since 1994, Hvorostovsky lived in London.
A special place in the artist's repertoire was occupied by the music of Georgy Sviridov. In particular, Hvorostovsky was the first to perform his vocal poem "Petersburg" based on Blok's verses, written in 1995 and dedicated to the singer.
In May 2004, Hvorostovsky performed with a solo program on Red Square. Popular Soviet works of the war years, arias from operas by Russian and Italian composers, several Russian romances and Neapolitan songs were performed. The concert was broadcast on TV in more than 30 countries of the world. The performance of the artist was attended by Vladimir Putin and Hosni Mubarak, who at that time was the President of Egypt.
In September 2017, the President of Russia signed a decree on awarding Hvorostovsky with the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, IV degree.
Dmitri Hvorostovsky has died. This tragic news, which came from London in the morning, was confirmed to us by a friend, like-minded person and colleague of Hvorostovsky, conductor Konstantin Orbelyan.
I managed to say goodbye to Dmitry last night at 21.00. And today, early in the morning, his wife Florence called me and said that Dima had died a minute ago. This was at 3:30 am. He died in a hospital in London.
Unfortunately, the fight for his life ended today.
I cannot say that in the last minutes he was conscious. His parents arrived yesterday morning. They saw each other. We even managed to talk as much as possible. And they also said goodbye to him, although until the last minute no one believed that Dima would leave.
We all hoped for a miracle.
In October, People's Artist of Russia Dmitry Hvorostovsky turned 55 years old.

FAMILY COMMENT
On behalf of the Hvorostovsky family, it is with a heavy heart that we announce that Dmitry Hvorostovsky - beloved operatic baritone, husband, father, son and friend - has died at the age of 55. After battling brain cancer for two and a half years, he passed away quietly this morning, November 22, surrounded by family at his home in London, UK. The warmth of his voice and his spirit will forever remain with us.
DOSSIER "KP"
One of the best baritones of our time, the owner of a sensual timbre, who owns all the secrets of bel canto, was born into an average Soviet family. In Krasnoyarsk . Dad is an engineer, mom is a doctor. What's unusual? Only a unique voice that sounded very early. From the age of 4, Dima performed Russian romances and folk songs quite professionally. And while classmates were puffing over puzzles and equations, he played scales and sang at the music school. Maybe even then he understood: he had a different purpose. Or maybe they liked music lessons more.
The outstanding teachers of the Krasnoyarsk Institute of Arts helped to hone the technique of singing. Among them, the main one is Professor Ekaterina Iofel.
A happy father with children (from left to right): Maria (daughter of the singer's first wife, whom he adopted), 21-year-old Danila and 21-year-old Alexandra (children from their first marriage with ballerina Svetlana Ivanova), 10-year-old Nina, in the second row - 15 year old Maxim.

After the institute, Dmitry's career went like clockwork: solo parts in the Krasnoyarsk Opera and Ballet Theater, victories in international competitions.
In 1989, he won first place at the Singer of the World International Singing Competition in Cardiff, Wales. What is behind this? Firstly, world fame, and secondly, contracts with the best opera scenes. La Scala, Theater Royal, Covent Garden, Metropolitan Opera… Any piece for any audience. At least on a large opera stage, at least in a chamber hall or an open-air concert. Hvorostovsky was capable of everything and talent: from the most complex opera parts to Russian romances, from Italian songs to Soviet hits. He sang romances by Fauré, Tchaikovsky, Taneyev, Liszt and Rachmaninov. One of his favorite roles was Rigoletto in the Verdi opera of the same name ... Once he threw out a completely unexpected trick - he began to collaborate with pop composer Igor Krutoy. Hvorostovsky released a video for his song "You and I".
It seemed that life gave him everything with a full spoon: both talent and wife - a beautiful half-French half-Italian Florence, and five children on the benches. Not to mention the fact that Hvorostovsky himself looked incredibly impressive not only on stage, but also in life. Strong, handsome, dives into the hole, goes on a boat along the Yenisei. And suddenly an illness ... A few years ago, his concerts were canceled in Moscow due to problems with his voice. Then no one suspected anything fatal - problems with the voice of opera performers happen. But two years ago, like a bolt from the blue, Dmitry was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Everyone believed that he would cope with this misfortune. He is strong, he is a Siberian. Alas, the disease was stronger.
CONDOLENCES
A close friend of Hvorostovsky about his last days: He could not speak, but he heard and understood everything

People's Artist of Russia, holder of the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, IV degree and other awards, an internationally recognized opera singer, died on the night of November 22 at 3.35. He was 55 years old. Cancer. In the last days of the artist's life (he was in a hospice in London), the closest people were nearby, including the Russian poetess Lilia Vinogradova.

Colleagues and friends on the death of Dmitry Hvorostovsky: We did not believe until the last that this would happen
The death of Dmitri Hvorostovsky, an opera singer and People's Artist of Russia, is a great loss not only for his family and entourage, but also for the opera world. Colleagues and friends of the artist are talking about this today, expressing condolences in connection with his death.
“I can only say that we have lost a great singer, a wonderful person, a friend, a world personality who made a huge contribution, he made a huge contribution to the world opera culture and also in the world and in Russia. I think that for a very long time we will not have such a singer as Dima. He was still a very close friend to us, I was lucky to be on the same stage with him ... I express my condolences to his entire family. This is terrible news. It’s just somehow unexpected ... We all knew about it, but everyone didn’t believe until the last that it would happen, ”Dinara Aliyeva, soloist of the Bolshoi Theater, told Komsomolskaya Pravda Radio
MEANWHILE
Dmitry Hvorostovsky bequeathed to bury his ashes in Moscow and Krasnoyarsk
It was very difficult to hope, because Dmitry Hvorostovsky's diagnosis was incurable - an oncological brain tumor, - People's Artist of the USSR Iosif Kobzon told KP. - But Dmitry fought. I fought as best I could. And I understand him, maybe more than anyone else. Because when I had critical situations with oncology, they, in fact, remained, I fought. And chemotherapy, which, of course, affected both my body and life ... And I thought about Hvorostovsky - how he relates to his damned diagnosis
BY THE WAY
Personal life of Dmitry Hvorostovsky: on the first date with his wife Florence, they sculpted dumplings
In 1999, Dmitry met the singer Florence Illy. In fact, an office romance grew into a marriage that lasted until the artist's last breath. We talk about the personal life of Dmitry Hvorostovsky - the love story of the singer and his " Floshi Dmitri Hvorostovsky - beloved operatic baritone, husband, father, son and friend - has died at the age of 55. After a two and a half year battle with brain cancer, he quietly passed away this morning, November 22, in London, surrounded by his family. Our condolences to the family and friends of the artist.
"Russian Planet" recalls the key milestones in the work of the great operatic baritone Dmitry Hvorostovsky was born in Krasnoyarsk on October 17, 1962 in a house where silence rarely came. In the collection of his father, a chemical engineer who could not imagine his existence without music, there were the rarest records of Enrico Caruso and Maria Callas, Titto Gobbi and, of course, recordings of the Russian genius Fyodor Chaliapin, which cost a fortune in those years.
Barely born, Dmitry Hvorostovsky was immersed in a charming atmosphere. He played the piano beautifully and sang one of the people closest to him - the one who formed the personality of a musician in him. We are talking about the father, Alexander Stepanovich, who instilled in his son a love for beauty and, above all, for music and singing.
D. Hvorostovsky's parents. Early 60s…
And little Dima sang. He did this, shocking his parents, as soon as he was 4 years old. At first, the father was taken aback, and then carefully invited the baby to the family heirloom - the piano, showing him the simplest chords ...

Dmitry looked at this black-and-white, endless, like life, palette of keys for a long time, and then ... carefully and accurately repeated the chord.

The doors to the music school were open! And his teachers, subdued by the talent of the kid, saw in him, rather, the future Mozart, rather than the young Soviet Chaliapin.
Photo: lichnosti.net
As is often the case with truly gifted people, success in music school was strikingly different from success in general education school. The great baritone reminisced about his school years with reluctance.
But then the last bell rang and the young man faced the question of choosing a profession!
He was predicted to enter the Krasnoyarsk School of Arts - the regional Mecca, from the walls of which many wonderful musicians and singers came out, but - in spite of everything! - Dmitry ... took the documents to the pedagogical department, where he mastered the specialty of a music teacher.
Those were the 70s, when the Beatles had already died down, and there was a craze for hard rock, which young Hvorostovsky imbued with, organizing performances as part of one of the "underground" rock groups.

However, the "hard period of hard rock" did not last long in his life. Realizing that his vocation would be classical music, Hvorostovsky entered the vocal department, where the very fateful meeting with the teacher Ekaterina Konstantinovna Ioffel, the legend of Soviet and Russian opera, who gave a “start in life” to more than a hundred opera singers, took place. One of them was her most famous and talented student Dima Hvorostovsky.
Like Dmitry Alexandrovich, Ekaterina Konstantinovna passed away in 2017, being almost 40 years older than her student.

In his native Krasnoyarsk, on the stage of the Opera and Ballet Theater, Dmitry Hvorostovsky's professional start took place. To those who heard this heartfelt - causing awe, shock, trembling! - a baritone, it was quite obvious that the owner of this magnificent voice would not linger in the outback.
It will not be enough for him both Moscow and Leningrad. After all, Dmitry Hvorostovsky (which, of course, he could not have guessed in those years) would become a world-class figure. In the meantime, the artistic management of the Krasnoyarsk Opera will provide the young specialist with an opportunity that is rarely awarded to any of the beginning opera singers.
His baritone will sound in almost all significant productions of 1985-1990. In Krasnoyarsk, he will perform the main opera parts in The Queen of Spades and Faust, Eugene Onegin and La Traviata, Pagliacci, Iolanthe.
Only two years after the start of his professional career, he will become not just a winner, but a triumphant of the All-Union Glinka Vocal Competition.
Its leaders, they knew, could not but foresee that reaching the level of the all-Union competition would mark the beginning of a completely different round in the career of a gifted young singer. But even they could not imagine that in a year, enchanted by the voice of Hvorostovsky, the audience of the best venues in Europe would applaud.
With the part of Yeletsky, he will brilliantly perform on the stage of the Opera House in Nice, and the luminaries of the international competition in Toulouse will be so impressed by the performance of the Soviet singer that they will give him the Grand Prix without any hesitation.
What is the phenomenon of Dmitry Hvorostovsky? He conquered not only with a unique voice, but also with a special manner of performance, where the deepest penetration was combined with genuine masculinity and beauty. A beautifully built young man with a piercing ashy mop of hair, dressed in a tuxedo that fits perfectly on him, was doomed to worldwide recognition and success.
For Dmitry Hvorostovsky, there were no closed scenes. Having lived his life outside of time and space, being, thanks to a talent sent down from above, outside of any political conflicts, he sang on the stage of Milan's La Scala. He was idolized by pragmatic Americans after a resoundingly successful performance at the Metropolitan Opera, he conquered Covent Garden, the legendary royal theater in London.
And, of course, he was always loved, always appreciated in his homeland, in Russia, where he was eagerly awaited both in his native Krasnoyarsk and in other cities. Tickets for Hvorostovsky were swept away in the first days of sales! In Moscow, not only the doors of the Kremlin Palace were open to him.
Remember! After all, it was Dmitry Hvorostovsky who was the first to give a concert on Red Square on the eve of his grandiose all-Russian tour. Can you give an example of a performance by at least one Russian artist who would be broadcast on the air at once in 25 (twenty-five!) countries?
I don't remember something. Was Hvorostovsky happy in family life? Only he himself could answer this question, but if you cross this line and invade the sphere where the intimate, personal begins, then his life could be compared with a dramatic vicissitudes, where, as you know, there is happiness, but, sometimes, have to sip grief.
Back in 1989, he became the husband of the ballerina of the Krasnoyarsk Theater Svetlana Ivanova, whose child Dmitry accepted and loved as his own.
Don't do this... Believe me, men never leave good women, - Ekaterina Konstantinovna Ioffel, his teacher, tried to get through to him.
But he already loved, and he loved, as if singing, heartfelt and heartfelt. But, alas, not everyone could appreciate it. Svetlana could not ... they parted, parted badly, after 15 years of living together, overcoming - it would seem! - all points of return to parting.
Photo: www.uznayvse.ru
Dmitry Alexandrovich was very upset by the betrayal, as well as the forced separation from the twins dear to his heart - Sashenka and Daniil.
He left, giving the now ex-wife what she demanded before parting, and ended up in the abyss of the deepest depression, in a kind of black tunnel, from which, it seemed, there was no way out ...
Thus ended this beautiful, slightly strange marriage. And now it seems that he sincerely loved, and Svetlana simply allowed herself to be loved by a person who was admired by millions of people around the world.
Dmitry will outlive Svetlana by only a year and a half. She will pass away in 2016. Cause of death? Acute meningitis... sepsis. Is it by chance?
Years will pass, and Florence will appear - a woman who will help restore Hvorostovsky's life, only at first glance, irretrievably lost colors. And again, children's laughter will delight Dmitry, who is returning from a lifelong tour.
Maxim, who was born in 2003, and also Ninochka, who appeared with the star couple four years later, will rejoice at the return of their father.

Confusion and longing will seize the legendary singer again at the beginning of 2015, when he feels painful weakness, realizes that dizziness attacks are not at all a consequence of fatigue caused by continuous exhausting tours.
The dazzling light of the spotlights, these rays of glory that shone for him all his life, will suddenly go out overnight - right at one of the performances! - as a result of a temporary loss of vision ... He will not fall silent, his voice will not tremble, Hvorostovsky will cope with internal panic and ... continue to sing in the dark.
Having given a crushing battle to his illness, struggling with all possible means, including yoga, with the pain that was caused by the murderous chemotherapy, Dmitry Hvorostovsky lived for another two and a half years. Only in the most extreme situations did he refuse to speak. The “most extreme” were those periods when it was required to take another course of chemistry ...
He will once again return to his native Krasnoyarsk, where it all began, shortly before his death. He will return, overcoming weakness and pain, to go on stage and bow low to the viewer of those places where the amazing began - but what is there! - a fantastic aria of a lifetime.
Many of those leaving the auditorium will weep. People will see not only the beloved artist, the greatest opera singer of our time, but also the results of his desperate struggle, in which, unfortunately, the disease began to win.
This fall, Dmitry Hvorostovsky had the opportunity to read his own obituary. Our colleague from a respected federal publication hastened to report his death without checking the information ...
We believed to the last that a miracle would happen, that people's love, which can also work miracles, would not allow him to leave the way Alexander Abdulov, Mikhail Zadornov and many more wonderful Russian artists left, carried away by a monstrous oncology pandemic.
But it didn't happen. And today, the Russian Planet online publication mourns deeply along with those who now still refuse to believe that Dmitry Alexandrovich is no longer with us.
A few minutes ago, Dmitry Malikov on his Twitter page announced the death of Dmitry Hvorostovsky.
However, not everyone believed the veracity of the artist's message: last month, the media already reported on the death of the opera singer. Then the director of Hvorostovsky, Mark Hildrew, denied the information, and Dmitry's wife wrote on Facebook that her "husband is fine and sleeps happily next to her."
Update:
Literally just the words of Malikov were confirmed by Joseph Kobzon. According to the artist, Hvorostovsky died in Europe at the age of 56.
Dmitry Malikov also managed to report that his account was not hacked.
I have information from my poetess Lilia Vinogradova, who was very close to him and who was there with him. She texted me that he died at 3:36 am London time,
Malikov commented on his post to a RIA Novosti correspondent.
One of the latest sad news was confirmed by the representative of the artist in Russia. According to him, after a long illness, Dmitry Hvorostovsky died in London:
It really, unfortunately, it happened,
she told TASS.
Dmitry Hvorostovsky with his wife Florence at the "New Wave-2016"
Recall that in 2015, Hvorostovsky was diagnosed with a brain tumor. For several months, the singer interrupted his concert activity for a course of treatment. He later returned to the stage, but the fight against cancer was not over.
“I can only say that we have lost a great singer, a wonderful person, a friend, a world personality who made a huge contribution, he made a huge contribution to the world opera culture and also in the world and in Russia. I think that for a very long time we will not have such a singer as Dima. He was still a very close friend to us, I was lucky to be on the same stage with him ... I express my condolences to his entire family. This is terrible news. It’s just somehow unexpected ... We all knew about it, but everyone didn’t believe until the last that it would happen, ”Dinara Aliyeva, soloist of the Bolshoi Theater, told Komsomolskaya Pravda Radio (details)
- There are always chances. Diseases that have been fatal for centuries have been overcome. And by the simplest means. Now more and more funds are appearing in the fight against cancer. They are especially effective if diagnosed at an early stage. But alas, when we defeat cancer, something else will appear.
“I have information from my poetess Lilia Vinogradova, who was very close to him and who was there with him,” singer Dmitry Malikov told RIA Novosti.
But, unfortunately, neither the doctors nor the positive attitude could help the artist. World famous Russian opera singer Dmitry Hvorostovsky died in London surrounded by loved ones. The friend also told what his last days were like. Here is what KP.RU reports.
With regard to Hvorostovsky, I simply did not want to know about scandals and intrigues, no loud revelations were required. His image was so bright during his lifetime that discrediting him after death looked cynical and vile.
And therefore, when some “yellow” journalists began to seek out and savor not the most beautiful details of his life and death, when, like kites, in pursuit of sensations, they attacked the deceased Hvorostovsky, issuing a stream of dirt every hour, the people were indignant and rightly stood up in defense of his good name singer. There was a real mass psychosis!
— There are more than 50 different forms of neoplasms in the brain. They behave differently. Serious progress has not occurred in 20-30 years. Now patients die on average within two years, that is, they live twice as long. Of course, there are chances: I hope for the success of radiation therapy, radiosurgery and immunotherapy. But it takes a decade.
They separated in 1999. According to a friend of the singer, the reason for the gap was the betrayal of Svetlana. After the divorce, the former spouses communicated only through lawyers. Seven years ago, the mother of Hvorostovsky's children, through the court, obtained an increase in alimony from the singer. He had to pay his ex-wife more than 17 million rubles a year.
We emphasize once again: such signs are characteristic of many neurological diseases, so this is not a reason for panic, but for examinations. You need to start with a trip to the neurologist.
When is the funeral of Dmitry Hvorostovsky. Breaking news today 03.03.2018
Svetlana married the singer in 1991. Hvorostovsky proposed to her after four years of dating. This was the first marriage for the famous singer. The future spouses met backstage at the Krasnoyarsk Opera and Ballet Theatre, where Svetlana performed as a corps de ballet dancer, and Dmitry began his journey to world fame.
In a word, as a result, in practice, there is often a serious delay in the detection and treatment of the disease.
“A direct link between stress and brain cancer is a myth,” says oncologist Boris Kholodov. “At the same time, it cannot be denied that nervous tensions and experiences weaken our body, and any diseases against this background occur more often and are more difficult. That is why after 60 years, when a person ages and weakens, cancer occurs incomparably more often than in young people.
I cannot say that in the last minutes he was conscious. His parents arrived yesterday morning. They saw each other. They even managed to communicate, as far as it was possible in his condition. People are sometimes able to say more with their eyes than with words.
Dmitri Hvorostovsky passed away. The opera singer was only 55 years old. Hvorostovsky died in London from brain cancer.
The tragic news about the death of Dmitry Hvorostovsky was confirmed to us by a friend, like-minded person and colleague of Dmitry Hvorostovsky, conductor Konstantin Orbelyan.
In your opinion, the prevalence today of various gadgets, mobile phones, computers Maybe influence the development of brain tumors? And if so, how to be saved?
He was seriously ill. That is, there was a certain stable state, after which deterioration occurred. And he stayed like that for a while. Then again - worsening, again holding on, then worsening again. A week ago he could talk. And for the last five days he was in the hospital in the department where make it easier for people departure from life. This is not a treatment department, but palliative care. He could no longer speak, only with his eyes.
"Goodbye!" - said Dmitry Hvorostovsky to the audience at his last concert. Already being seriously ill, the great baritone Dmitry Hvorostovsky gave a concert in his homeland in Krasnoyarsk
Dmitry Hvorostovsky than was ill from which he died. Latest details.
According to the singer's attending physician, unfortunately, malignant tumors are almost always asymptomatic in the initial stages. Especially - education in the brain. The oncologist recalled that singer Zhanna Friske also died of this disease.
- a person has viral infections, in particular, herpes, cytomegalovirus - these infections do not in themselves lead to cancer, but weaken the body and increase the risk of cell degeneration into tumor cells.
Dmitry was going through a hard divorce. He got depressed and binge drinking. Hvorostovsky said more than once that the threat to sing not on the opera stage, but perhaps at a table full of bottles was real. It was then that he began to have the first problems with the work of the brain: the baritone admitted that he had memory lapses.
- Two years ago, Dmitry said that doctors discovered he had a brain tumor. It was a benign tumor...
The singer never attracted attention to himself with the help of scandals, did not go out, as it is now fashionable, on stage in his underwear, did not put family life on public display. Yes, everyone knew that he had several marriages, a conflict with his first wife, that he once had problems with alcohol. But all this only strengthened the image of a very understandable, dear and close artist. Blood and flesh from his people.
— Yes, especially when it is detected at an early stage. And a lot depends on the person, on his attitude to fight. When a person, having learned the diagnosis, falls into depression, gives up, his body gradually also stops fighting.
Recall that the newspaper "Komsomolskaya Pravda" on October 11 mistakenly released the news about the death of opera singer Dmitry Hvorostovsky. However, later this message was repeatedly refuted. Including the wife of the singer.
Dmitry Hvorostovsky family children. All latest information as of 03/03/2018
When Dmitry was in his third year at the school, he was invited to take part in the troupe of the Krasnoyarsk Opera House. After just a few weeks of work, the singer was taken to perform solo parts in productions and lead roles. Often Dmitry took part in competitions for young performers, and won prestigious awards in them.
The media reported on the terrible consequences of oncology that the artist faced - they wrote that he was losing his sight, that he could not walk. There were rumors that Hvorostovsky might even lose his amazing voice. The singer denied all the terrible news about his health to the last - he was sure that he would be able to return to the stage.
Hvorostovsky underwent chemotherapy and even tried to return to the stage, but most of the scheduled performances had to be canceled one after another. Hvorostovsky simply did not have the strength.
Singer Dmitry Hvorostovsky became another victim of a brain tumor. Is it possible to prevent this disaster, what symptoms should ordinary people listen to, and what misconceptions should be got rid of?
This was our last performance with him. Then there was a concert on June 22 in Austria. He understood everything. Everyone knew about his illness. He had no illusions. He is an incredibly courageous person. His death is a tragedy for all of us. There will never be such a voice as Hvorostovsky's.
"There is no connection here, it's just a coincidence," emphasizes the candidate of medical sciences, neurooncologist at the Institute of Neurosurgery. Burdenko Boris Kholodov. Brain tumors are not an "occupational hazard" for artists. If speak about reason the death of Zhanna Friske and the cause of the death of Dmitry Hvorostovsky, then these people differ in gender, age, and other circumstances.
People's Artist of Russia, opera singer Dmitry Hvorostovsky, who had suffered from oncology for a long time, died in London. The death of the singer was reported by Dmitry Malikov and Iosif Kobzon.
Some time ago, on October 11 of this year, an announcement about the death of the artist appeared on the Internet, but this information was not confirmed. Today, the singer's relatives and friends confirmed the fact of Hvorostovsky's death.
“Humanity will learn to beat cancer. Smallpox mowed down entire nations. And in 1980, WHO announced its complete elimination.
Relatives of Dmitry Hvorostovsky confirmed reports of the death of the opera singer. The corresponding post appeared on Wednesday, November 22.
Dmitry Hvorostovsky legacy. All latest information as of 03/03/2018
- there is a genetic predisposition: for example, when several people from the family had cancer diagnoses before the age of 60, neurooncologist Boris Kholodov explains. In the case of Dmitry Hvorostovsky, it is known that at the age of 55, his aunt Nadezhda Hvorostovskaya died of bone marrow cancer. However, predisposition does not mean at all that a person will get sick - a tumor arises and develops under the influence of various "harmful factors", the expert emphasizes. Including among them the already mentioned smoking, alcohol abuse, sunburn, overeating.
He lived in London, turned to the best European specialists for help. But, unfortunately, the fight turned out to be unequal - a terrible disease took the life of the artist beloved by many. The sad news has already been confirmed by his family.
