Traditional Russian cuisine was presented to the guests, the hall was filled with wildflowers typical for the middle part of Russia, and most importantly, music of great Russian composers was performed by outstanding soloists, so beloved not only in their country, but also all over the world: Svetlana Kasyan (soprano) and Vladislav Sulimsky (baritone) accompanied by virtuoso pianist Pavel Nebolsin. Svetlana is currently preparing a production at the opera house in Düsseldorf, Vladislav - in Salzburg, and Pavel actively performs as concertmaster in Anna Netrebko's European concerts.
