A festive evening with jazz, symphonic energy, and brilliant fantasies on beloved themes from ballets, operas, and cinema. On stage - the Trio of Alexander Maslov and the Capella Orchestra. This concert is like a toast under the chimes of the clock: bright, warm, witty, and making you fall in love with music from the first notes. The most magical date of the year is an opportunity not only to summarize but also to give yourself real pleasure. On this evening, the stage of the concert hall will come alive with the sounds of music that intertwines classical and jazz, cinema and musicals, tradition and experiment. The Symphony Orchestra of the Capella, under the direction of Ivan Stolbov, has prepared a festive program full of unexpected twists, recognizable melodies, and vibrant arrangements. A special highlight of the concert will be the performance of the Trio of Alexander Maslov - one of the most colorful jazz ensembles in St. Petersburg. Their performance will feature jazz arrangements of Borodin's "Fly Away on the Wings of the Wind," Tchaikovsky's "The Nutcracker," a suite inspired by Menken's "Aladdin," and the original "New Year's Fantasy." These compositions do not lose their melodic strength but gain a new breath - full of freedom, rhythm, and elegant humor. The music of Duke Ellington, Latin American motifs, popular academic classics, and soundtracks to beloved films - the concert will gather all the best that can be heard on the last evening of the outgoing year. The program is designed so that everyone can find something of their own - whether it be the light irony of jazz or the timeless beauty of orchestral sound. The Trio of Alexander Maslov consists of pianist Alexander Maslov, double bassist Philip Meshcheryakov, and Pavel Chizhik, a virtuoso of percussion and vibraphone. Their long-standing collaboration with orchestras and original projects makes each performance special. Our website features the current poster of St. Petersburg.
