He was gifted with amazing musicality - he played the violin, the piano, sang, composed music on his own poems. “Like every real, and even more so a great poet,” wrote I. Andronikov, “Lermontov confessed his poetry, and, turning over the volumes of his works, we can read the history of his soul and understand him as a poet and a man…”
