The television program "Morning Post" has been on television since 1974. It was a very popular music tv program.






An annotation:

The program was filmed on the eve of Victory Day (May 9) in the Gorky Central Park of Culture and Rest in Moscow.





0:19 - Anchorperson: Hello! Good morning. Sunday is always a bit like a holiday, and today's Sunday is especially similar on it. Moscow dresses up in bright clothes. Moscow enjoys the spring. On such a day it is impossible to sit at home. And even a little rain is not a hindrance for a walk. The rain is already as warm as summer rains.

0:44-2:29 - [Ksenia Georgiadi sings the song "I walk in Moscow". She (born 1949) is a Soviet and Russian pop singer of Greek origin.]

2:33 - Anchorperson: It is not surprising that after a walk around the city we are here in the Gorky Central Park of Culture and Rest. Here people have fun and relax. They bring children here and meet here their friends. And here, rising on the Ferris wheel to the sky itself, they can see from the height our beautiful spring city.

2:54-6:38 - [Yuri Denisov and the ensemble "Carousel" sings the song "If the sky was a mirror".]

6:44 - Anchorperson: Please note that there are many fountains in the park. Since it has become a tradition to make a date at the fountain, do not forget to agree at which fountain you will wait for each other. And then your meeting is sure to take place.

7:02-10:06 - [Lydia Rotaru and Aurika Rotaru sing the song "I'm waiting". They are Soviet and Ukrainian pop singers of Moldavian origin.]

10:10 - Anchorperson: Everyone will find their favorite entertainment in the park. After all, every alley in the park ends with an entrance to some attraction or dance floor or leads to an open stage where artists perform. But do not hurry, because the day is just beginning and on the alleys themselves there will be a place for rest, reflections and memories associated with the same but now distant May days [1945].

10:37-13:28 - [Vladimir Makarov sings the song "We are not old". He (1932-2008) was a Soviet singer, lyric baritone.]

13:32 - Anchorperson: We have been here for a long time but have never visited the rides, did not ride on the carousel, did not fly on the swings. Сhildren are clearly ahead of us. Of course, all these attractions are primarily designed for them. But adults also sometimes want to remember their childhood. And here it is absolutely not forbidden, and there will be enough places for attractions for all and children and adults and Muscovites and visiting guests.

14:01-17:35 - [Szűcs Judith sings the song "I'm Trembling". She (born 1953) is a Hungarian disco and pop singer. Apparently she sings it in Hungarian.]

17:37 - Anchorperson: You have already seen the main entrance to the park, but I would like to add that you can get to the park not only from land but also from the Moscow River. It is most convenient to do this on a riverboat, but you can use simpler ways. Some can do without any aids (a duck) but this is unique because the water in the river is still quite cold. Therefore, I recommend a more comfortable way of arrival for example a boat. As you can see in it, besides the musicians there are two more huge musical instruments. Do you think these musical instruments are not so huge? Wait a minute! Now all things will fall into its place: the musical instruments, the musicians and the fountain. Attention! Music starts.

18:49-22:05 - [Vladimir Belyaev and Kirill Ryazhsky perform instrumental piece "Regtime". Composer is Charles Berry.]

22:08 - Anchorperson: And now let's look a little bit ahead in the future. In the evening this park will turn into a large dance floor. The lights will be lit, the reflections of the lights will move on the river and music will sound until night. So it will be tonight. So it was yesterday. So it was many years ago.

22:30-24:12 - [Lyudmila Gurchenko sings the song "In the City Garden" (fragment from the concert-movie "Favorite songs"). She (1935-2011) was a popular Soviet actress, singer and entertainer.]

24:14 - Anchorperson: At some point, the dances will be ended and the park will be quiet. And the crowd of people will gradually go home. And, maybe, they will bring joy and spring fun to their homes, which the old Moscow park generously gave them. And let the joy of peace, happiness and spring land never stop in your homes during everyday worries.

24:41-28:17 - [The group of Vyacheslav Dobrynin sings the song "Earth is our home". A soloist is Sergey Mazaev.]
