The Opening the Fifth Festival Vivacello
On the 3rd of November, the
performance of the Vienna Chamber Orchestra in the Great Hall
of Moscow Conservatory will open the Fifth Festival «VIVACELLO». One
of the world’s famous bands led by Stefan Vladar will mark the
beginning of a number of concerts by the eminent musicians
that will be performed at the best Moscow sites for
a fortnight.
The Festival VIVACELLO will keep the tradition
of holding international music events that has existed for several years
already. Democratic in terms of the concert format, but sophisticated
in terms of the musical performance, this festival
is to be of great interest for a wide range
of audience.
The festival is traditionally organized by the
Cultural and Charitable Foundation U-Art: You and Art, and UNIDENT
Group. Previous festivals have proved that VIVACELLO is of great
interest for the Moscow audience. From year to year these concerts are
attended by an increasing number of spectators.
The Art-Director of the festival, cellist Boris
Andrianov manages to create an original and invariably
surprising program without going beyond the seemingly narrow frameworks
of the festival.
This year the autumn cello festival the Moscow audience has
already seen several times is ready to surprise again. The list
of the celebrities includes Giovanni Sollima, David Geringas,
Gianluca Marciano, Alexander Rudin, Alexander Kniazev, Alena
Baeva, Terem-Quartet and The State Jazz Music Chamber Orchestra
of Oleg Lundstrem.
