Thanks to the harmony of the rhythm and lively rhyme, the melodious and light poems from Alexey Novikov's collection "Songs to the Guitar" harmoniously fall on the guitar chords, overflowing with a musical river. Light and gloomy, uncomplicated and deep, dreary and passionate, bold and tender lines, pierced by a thread of consistent thought and superimposed on simple but expressive melodies, evoke love for the beautiful - for those strings of the soul that respond to the ringing of guitar strings.
