This name is Dmitry Hvorostovsky, the biography of the singer, who died untimely in 2017, is remembered now. After all, recently his son from marriage to Florence Illy celebrated his 20th anniversary. In social networks appeared new photos of grown-up and significantly matured Maxim.



Instagram / @flosha1 Dmitry Hvorostovsky: biography Most fans of his father's singing talent were delighted with the appearance of the young man. Tall, stately, athletic build, seeming a little older due to the elegant mustache, apparently with a hint of Dali and Espanyolk beards. Of course, in this image you can feel the fervent self-irony of the young man.

But his mother’s congratulatory words are not ironic. My mother has a very sharp heart... No words can express how proud I am of the young man you have become. Talented, kind, funny, beautiful inside and out. With the biggest heart on the planet..., Florence Illy-Hvorostovskaya wrote on July 14 to her son on his birthday.



Agree, it doesn’t look like emotions like “What a handsome man grew up.” Keep your eyes open! This is not about a human baby or a pretty kitten, a puppy, but about an adult guy. In addition to his spectacular appearance, other qualities are also important to him, developed not thanks to genetics, but with the help of his own efforts on the way to a dream and goal. As follows from the mother’s words, Maxim really strives to develop his inner world. When the boy was in high school, Florence said in a personal blog that he is passionate about playing the guitar, writes music and lyrics of his songs and dreams of studying at the conservatory.

In comments about a recent holiday in the family of Illy-Hvorostovsky, some fans of the late singer wondered why his son Maxim lives in the UK. Recall that in 1989, 27-year-old Dmitry Hvorostovsky became the winner of the competition of opera singers Cardiff Voices.. He himself considered this event significant in the development of his stage career: immediately after the final, the young baritone signed a contract to record an album with Philips, and within a year he made successful debuts in opera houses in London and New York. And Dmitry left the USSR for the West.

Soon, in 1994, the artist bought a large house in London, moved there with his first wife Svetlana and her daughter from a previous relationship Masha. He adopted a girl. And his children, Alexandra and Daniil, were born on June 28, 1996 in Britain. Hvorostovsky Sr., retaining Russian citizenship, also became a citizen of Great Britain.

The union with Svetlana failed, and when the twins were five years old, the couple officially broke up. The second marriage of Dmitry with the Italian of French origin Florence Illy was really happy: his wife supported the singer in the profession, as she was a singer, and their romance began both on the opera stage and in life. She learned English very quickly, tried to speak Russian and learned to cook her husband’s favorite food.



GettyImages Their first child, Maxim, was born on July 14, 2003. And four years later, the daughter Nina, who is already sixteen, was born. Dmitry chose the children's names. “He’s our boss,” Florence said more than once.

Hvorostovsky and the children of Hvorostovsky lovingly loved all his children. They maintain friendly relations with each other after his death. This is also a great merit of Florence Illy, who is always attentive not only to her own son and daughter, but also to Dmitry’s children from her first marriage. Especially she took care that all children managed to survive the loss of their father (Svetlana, the first wife of the singer, died in 2015, when the twins were 19 years old).

Until the end of 2015, the artist performed a lot and successfully on the famous opera stages of Europe and America, visited his homeland. One day, Dmitri noticed that, most likely, he began to sing thanks to Ukrainian roots. Did this influence his position in assessing Russia’s actions towards Ukraine in 2014? They say that we are almost one big people with a kind of root connection.



GettyImages So that we can afford and here is what “help” and “green men”. In a 2014 interview with Hvorostovsky, he said, “Of course what is happening with Ukraine is not Russia’s mistake.” I think Russia is doing very well. With dignity.

Alas, the talented owner of a beautiful baritone did not live up to the current apotheosis of this “correctness” and dignity with a broken penny. I wonder what he would say now.



GettyImages Dmitry Hvorostovsky: biography. Recall that the terrible diagnosis of the singer was put in 2015. He and Florence struggled to save his life. Unfortunately, no miracle happened. On November 27, 2017, Dmitry Hvorostovsky died. And Maxim and Nina grew up. They live with their mother in a suburb of London. May God bless them in their hearts and in their hearts.
