Music is a higher revelation than wisdom and philosophy (Beethoven)
"Razliv", meaning overflow, is the name of a place with an artifical lake near St Petersburg. "Vladimir Lenin and Grigory Zinoviev were hiding from arrest in the south-western coast of Razliv (the monument "Shalash" (the Hut) was constructed in 1927, architect Alexander Gegello)". http://www.encspb.ru/en/article.php?kod=2803998534

Alie Parusa, the Scarlet Sails (or Crimson Sails), the name of a tale, a book, a film, and, apparently, a ballet as well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scarlet_Sails_(tradition)
The tale is about a toy maker's daughter. "Her fairy godmother comes to her and tells her that one day a man will come, fall in love with her, and take here away in a ship with scarlet sails. Years later when she is a young woman a man comes across her napping in the woods. He instantly falls in love with her and learning of the prophesy of the crimson sails he builds a ship with crimson sails and takes her away".
