World opera star Olga Peretyatko will give a solo concert in the Moscow International Performing Arts Center. Accompanied by the National Philharmonic Orchestra of Russia, she will sing romances and popular arias by Russian classical composers. She will transform into various characters such as fragile Snow Maiden, graceful Marfa (“The Tsar's Bride”) and beguiling Volkhova (“Sadko”) from operas by Rimsky-Korsakov, and appear as Lyudmila from Glinka's “Ruslan and Luydmila” in her most gleeful and most grievous moods. Among romances the singer has chosen such gems of vocal lyrics as “Lilacs”, Vocalise, “How Nice It is Here”, “Do not Sing, My Beauty” by Rachmaninoff, “Amid the Din of the Ball” and “Lullaby” by Tchaikovsky, and some others.
The National Philharmonic Orchestra of Russia will add to the program some bright symphonic fragments from operas (“The Three Wonders” from “The Tale of Tsar Saltan” by Rimsky-Korsakov, the men's dance from “Aleko” by Rachmaninoff, the Krakowiak from “A Life for the Tsar” by Glinka and many others). On the podium there will appear Arif Dadashev, former participant of the NPR's conductor training group and now the conductor at the Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Moscow Academic Music Theater and the Moscow Operetta Theater, also an invited conductor at the Mariinsky Theater in St-Petersburg and the Azerbaijan Opera and Ballet State Academic Theater.
