His final piece, “The Komarovo Waltz”, unveiled here for the very first time, was written as a tribute to the place. The film is the reclusive composer’s eulogy to the community.

The film is based on a video made by Sergei Lando at the St. Petersburg Recording Studio at the end of March 2009, on the eve of the 200th anniversary of Nikolai Gogol. Literally the next day, Oleg Nikolaevich selected the video material. The film was first shown on April 1, 2009 on Gogol's birthday at the concert "Notes of a Madman" at the DK Lensovet in St. Petersburg. Numerous interested responses from the audience of this concert and their own vivid impressions prompted the Bomb-Peter company to publish this film. This film is not about Gogol, but is dedicated to him: in the intervals of playing the piano, the composer talks about the true roots of the writer's work, about the common fate of the greatest people of art, about the synthesis of music and literature, about eternity and paradoxes.
