Lyudmila Galitskaya is a true legend for those sergiyevoposadians who enjoy all sorts of concerts and retro parties she’s been hosting for decades at the Gagarin cultural centre (they are known as Palaces of culture in Russia). Thousand of admirers could easily tell her distinctive style from the hundreds of others and her rhyming too – the usual tactics when hosting a show. Grey-headed and tall, this lady is the queen of the local scene. Hear her conducting a children’s quiz by the Gagarin hall stairs.
