On September 28-30 the National Philharmonic Orchestra of Russia and Vladimir Spivakov will continue their tour over Russian regions giving three concerts in Murmansk and Severomorsk. They will take place as usual in the Murmansk Philharmonic Hall and in the Stroitel House of Culture in Severomorsk.

The “Arctic” tour features two different programs (see Events). One is formed around musical gems connected with theater. It has been already acclaimed in towns of the Volga Region, Orenburg, Kursk and Belgorod Oblasts. Its soloists are the NPR's group principals Andrei Mikhailovsky (clarinet) and Kirill Soldatov (trumpet), both awardees of international competitions.

The Murmansk concerts will start with works by Grieg and Tchaikovsky, great composers of Norwegian and Russian music, who were known to be on very friendly terms and shared their creative interests. The piano part in Grieg's famed Concerto will be played by 15-year old Egor Sidorov, a scholarship holder of the Vladimir Spivakov Charity Foundation, and student of the Central Music School at the Moscow Conservatory. Egor has won several international competitions in Kursk, Vladimir, Vilnus (Balis Dvarionas Contest), Malaysia and Finland (WPTA Finland), and got awards at the Vladimir Krainev Moscow Competition and the Young Chopin in Martigny (Switzerland).
