Mahler's music was a true passion for maestro Claudio Abbado,, the leitmotif of his creative quest. He turned to her throughout his life, performing the most complex scores with the best orchestras in the world, invariably - by heart. 

In August 2010, the maestro presented Mahler's Symphony No. 9 with his "orchestra of soloists" - the Lucerne Festival Orchestra. This recording of the last symphony, the composer's "swan song", was the culmination of a successful Mahler cycle. 

You can often hear that Mahler in perception of Claudio Abbado is peaceful, smooth and distinguished by unsurpassed orchestral transparency. Some of his intonations (for example, the long pianissimo at the very end of this symphony) sound like music from the other world, and two minutes of complete silence after the final adagio is the best evidence of his incredible impact of hypnotic skill. 

Reviews: 
"Performance ... of amazing depth and subtlety" (Daily Telegraph). 
"No one wants to deprive themselves of such a radical experience." (Diapason d'Or) 
"This is the symphony not to be missed." (Gramophone Magazine)

Turning the famous fairy tale into a comic opera, Rossini added new details and unexpected events to the plot. The stepmother was replaced by the stepfather, Baron Manifico, and the fairy godmother was replaced by the wizard Alidoro. Prince Ramiro, dressed as a servant, meets Cinderella before the ball. The role of the prince is played by his valet Dandini, who dresses up as a crowned head in order to appreciate the sincerity of Don Magnifico's daughters Clorinda and Thisbe. At the ball, Cinderella does not lose her slipper, but gives the prince a bracelet, according to which he must find her. The opera is full of dressing up, comical situations and, of course, magic.

Grand New Year Concert

The premiere of "Alexander Nevsky", a sacred opera by Hrayr Khanedanyan became one of the main cultural events dedicated to the 800th birth anniversary of the great statesman and Orthodox saint. It took place on Russia Day, June 12, 2021, in ancient town Alexandrov, named, according to a legend, in honor of Prince Alexander Nevsky. 

The action begins on the eve of the Battle of the Neva. Prince Alexander is worried that the Novgorod boyars are secretly negotiating with the Swedes. The Grand Master of the Livonian Order is preparing to attack Russia. The prince has an unexpected ally - Khan Sartak, the son of Khan Batu. Alexander and Sartak fraternize; soon Sartak decides to be baptized.

The opera ends with victory in the Battle of the Neva. In the prologue and in the finale, the plot is commented on by our contemporaries - a young man and a girl. They tell what an amazing person Prince Alexander was, whose activities not only influenced the fate of the country and people, but in many respects predetermined the course of Russian history for centuries to come.

"Alexander Nevsky". Sacred Opera

According to Maestro Riccardo Chailly, a characteristic feature of Rachmaninov's style is "harmonious" thinking. It's enough to hear just three chords, and you immediately recognize his creative genius, he noted. 

Reviews: 

"The theme of the 2019 Lucerne Summer Festival is "Power". This word has many meanings, and they all depend on the context. It has been scientifically proven that music improves memory, concentration and physical activity. This is her power! It can lift the mood and, by stimulating the regeneration of brain cells, increase motivation and concentration. The proof of this is the opening concert of the Lucerne Festival". (Bachtrack)

You have never heard rock like this!

The Moscow Pipers Orchestra is the first professional orchestra of Scottish bagpipes and drums in Russia. This prestigious team led by its artistic director Artemy Vorobyov is able to give any event a high status and a premium level just by its very appearance. 


The orchestra of Scottish bagpipes and drums is already an integral part of ceremonies and events not only in Scotland, but also in many countries of the world. This kind of musical art should be regarded as one of the varieties of ceremonial brass bands, rather than define it on a national basis. The Scottish bagpipes with a long history have still not lost their relevance. Nowadays the traditional Scottish music performed by the pipers' orchestra is very popular and more and more often folk and modern music from different regions of the world is being played on Scottish bagpipes. 

The Moscow Pipers Orchestra participated in the international festivals “Les Bandafolie's” (France, 2019), “Travel to Christmas” as part of the Moscow Seasons festival (2017), “Spasskaya Tower” (2009 and 2010), Danburg Knights Festival (Lipetsk region, 2021), "Slavyansky Bazar" (2010), the closing ceremony of the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
The Orchestra's tours are successfully held in the cities of Russia and abroad with a full house.

The program of the Moscow Pipers Orchestra concert reveals all the facets of the Great Highland bagpipe which is so unusual for Russia. You will hear bagpipe classical music in its original sounding and in the author's rock arrangement, as well as the world famous rock compositions.
