III Festival of Modern Academic Music “Playing with classics”

“Playing with the classics” – this is the adventure of the classical tradition in the modern context. The best musical groups will present a bright palette of works – from allusions to strict classics to unexpected sound experiments. This year’s program features composers-classics: George Krum, Alfred Schnittke, Rodion Shchedrin, Boris Tishchenko, Leonid Desyatnikov. There will also be works by our contemporaries – Nikolai Morozov, Ilya Alexandrov, Anatoly Korolev and other authors. In the year of the 100th anniversary of the October Revolution, special attention will be paid to the Russian musical avant-garde of the 20th century.
