The concert season is over, but Vladimir Spivakov and the National Philharmonic Orchestra of Russia are now working in the recording studio. The maestro returns to the heritage of his most loved composers, one of whom is Dmitry Shostakovich. “Dmitri Dmitrievich was a historiographer, - says the maestro. - He managed to create immortal monuments of the era, therefore life will change, governments will change, many things will change, but Dmitri Dmitrievich will remain forever. His works reflected his epoch as in a mirror, but the depth of his music makes it appropriate for any time. Its radiant sparkles penetrate the soul of a modern person and inevitably affect us.”
As usual, Vladimir Spivakov and the National Philharmonic Orchestra of Russia are completing the season with a tour in Russian regions. The concerts, combined into the Vladimir Spivakov Invites... Festival, will take place in Omsk (June 1-4) and Perm (June 6-10) within the All-Russia Philharmonic Seasons program of the Moscow Philharmonic Society and the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation with the assistance of the Ministry of Culture, Youth Policy and Mass Communications of the Perm Krai and the Government of the Omsk Region.
The Omsk edition of the Vladimir Spivakov Festival is taking place for the 12-th time, while that in Perm – in the 15-th time. Perm and Omsk were just the first towns that Vladimir Spivakov chose for regional editions of his Festival that continued the original Moscow event. The current concerts will feature masterworks of the Russian and European classical music from Handel to Shostakovich (see Events).

On March 18-20, Ryazan will host the “Vladimir Spivakov Invites” Festival for the first time (see Events). The music forum is sponsored by the Ryazan Region's government and is connected with the festivities on the occasion of the 85th anniversary of the Ryazan Philharmonic Society. The history of the Russian editions of the Vladimir Spivakov Festival goes back to 2001 when the maestro organized the music feast in Moscow with the participation of world stars and rising artists to take place once in two years. In the course of time, the project has extended its boundaries beyond Moscow and went to many other Russian towns from Murmansk to Omsk. Now Ryazan is continuing this trend.
The official birthday of the Ryazan Philharmonic Society is March 4, 1939. Now it is an actively developing organization with a long history and new daring prospects. Its concert hall in Ryazan has presented best Russian performers and collectives to its audience. The NPR has also played on this stage many a time.
