About

One evening - two epochs, two geniuses, two musical worlds. Wagner and Tchaikovsky are performed by the National Philharmonic Orchestra of Russia, turning the concert into a theatrical-symphonic event. This is a chance to live the legend, hear the passion, and see the music in motion. Music that creates images, an orchestra capable of telling without words, and compositions that changed the course of history. The concert will feature selected fragments from Wagner's tetralogy "The Ring of the Nibelungen" and the suite from Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake" - two masterpieces, each of which has long transcended the boundaries of the genre. Wagner's tetralogy is a grand operatic epic on mythological themes, lasting over 16 hours in its full version. But on this evening, a concentrated musical essence will be presented: "Ride of the Valkyries," the overture to "Tannhäuser," the preludes to "Lohengrin" and "Das Rheingold," scenes from "Twilight of the Gods." These works do not require a plot - their music itself creates an epic canvas. The second part of the program is Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake." It is not only a ballet but also a brilliant symphonic score, where each dance is like a separate chapter of a fairy tale. Neapolitan and Spanish dances, a dance with goblets, two Pas de deux - in the orchestra's performance, they acquire an independent stage life, needing no visual accompaniment. This rich program will be performed by the National Philharmonic Orchestra of Russia under the baton of Arsentiy Tkachenko - a conductor whose career is linked with the leading ensembles of the country. His precise gestures and deep understanding of style allow not just to reproduce the music but to embody it in space. The concert will be an opportunity to view Romanticism as an era without borders: here are German sagas, Russian poetics, symphonic power, and emotional depth. This is an evening where music does not just sound - it lives, moves, and tells.
