Among the many traditions that have developed in the team of the Academic Order "For Merit in Culture and Art" Song and Dance Ensemble of the Troops of the National Guard of the Russian Federation under the direction of the artistic director and chief conductor, People's Artist of Russia, Major General Viktor Eliseev over the half-century of the Ensemble's existence is participation in creative evenings of outstanding representatives of musical culture.

"I love you, life!" was the name of the concert held on October 3, 2024, in the State Kremlin Palace, dedicated to the 60th anniversary of the outstanding pop singer and actor Felix Tsarikati.

"Golden Voice of Russia", "Professional of Russia", "Heritage of Russia", "Voice of the Fatherland" - these are not only the epithets that a huge army of fans have awarded to their favorite singer, but also the names of the medals that (along with the order "Good People of the World") the Honored Artist of Russia, People's Artist of North Ossetia Felix Tsarikati has.

His beautiful baritone is mesmerizing. Felix Tsarikati's creative range is very broad - he can handle a variety of musical genres: opera arias, romances, folk songs, serious patriotic works, songs of Soviet and modern composers.

The song "To Serve Russia" (music by Eduard Khank, lyrics by Ilya Reznik) is not only the official anthem of the Russian "Youth Army", but also (since 2016) the unofficial anthem of all troops of the Russian Federation. Each performance of it evokes strong emotions in the audience.
