One of the first to report the death of Hvorostovsky was the singer Dmitry Malikov, but then for some reason he deleted his tweet.

Although you can understand it. After all, not so long ago, the media already spread the news about the death of Hvorostovsky. But then it turned out to be fake.

On October 11, Komsomolskaya Pravda spoke about the singer's death. Then the message was denied. Including on Facebook that everything is in order with the singer, his wife told.

This time, the death of the singer in an interview with RBC was confirmed by the Russian singer Iosif Kobzon. Then he told TASS about the death of Hvorostovsky with reference to his representative in Russia. Also, the news agency received an official message from the executive vice president of 21C Media Group Sean Michael Gross, who represented the artist in London.

It is with deep regret that we inform you that on November 22 at 3:20 am, Dmitry Alexandrovich Hvorostovsky, everyone's beloved opera baritone, a wonderful husband, father, son and friend, passed away in London. He passed away after two and a half years of struggle with a serious illness - brain cancer. Dmitry Alexandrovich was only 55. He spent his last days surrounded by loved ones - in a hospice not far from his home in London.

Dmitry Hvorostovsky was diagnosed with a brain tumor in June 2015. When it became known about the disease, the artist canceled the performances for two months and underwent several courses of chemotherapy. He then returned to the stage and the performance after his recovery ended with a special tribute to the singer.

The death of Dmitry Hvorostovsky, an opera singer and People's Artist of Russia, is a great loss not only for his family and entourage, but also for the opera world. Colleagues and friends of the artists are talking about this today, expressing condolences in connection with his death.

Soloist of the Bolshoi Theater Dinara Aliyeva, who worked with Hvorostovsky, admitted that until recently she did not believe that her colleague could die so suddenly.

“I can only say that we have lost a great singer, a wonderful person, a friend, a world personality who made a huge contribution, he made a huge contribution to the world opera culture and also in the world and in Russia. I think that for a very long time we will not have such a singer as Dima. He was still a very close friend to us, I was lucky to be on the same stage with him ... I express my condolences to all his family. This is terrible news. Just somehow unexpectedly ... We all knew about it, but until the very last moment we didn’t believe that it would happen, ”Aliyeva told Komsomolskaya Pravda radio.

The message about the death of the artist was also commented on by another colleague of Hvorostovsky - singer and composer Alexander Gradsky... He told the RT channel that he was "horrified" by the news about the death of Hvorostovsky, with whom he had previously communicated well.

The famous writer Daria Dontsova also responded to the news of the death of Hvorostovsky. She urged to remember that cancer is not always a sentence. And do not despair even with such a serious diagnosis.

I am so sorry that Dmitry Hvorostovsky was gone ... This is an insanely talented singer who personally brought me many minutes of joy when I listened to his performance. I want to say, my dears, despite the fact that lately we often hear about the deaths of famous people, oncology is being treated. And in order for you to be cured, the disease must be caught at the very beginning, in the first stages. Therefore, please just contact your doctor. Not when you have something sick, not when you are already being taken to the intensive care unit, but simply - for examination. Every six months. Take a blood test, do not spare your time and money. And if you find any disease, remember that at the very beginning everything heals well enough. Oncology is not a sentence in any case.

One more thing. Each of us has our own destiny, our own life. Never try on someone else's disease. If you suffer from oncology, or you have someone with this diagnosis in your family, do not think now, remembering Dmitry Hvorostovsky, Mikhail Zadornov, Zhanna Friske, that this is your fate, that death is inevitable. If you still want to look at someone, to have an "example" before your eyes, then I will say the words that I never say to people, but in this situation I will say: look at me, please. Your happy future is most likely me. I love you very much. Your Daria Dontsova.
