Saturday Full Of Music in the “Vorontsovo” Mansion

July 14, the territory of the ancient Russian “Vorontsovo” mansion, history of which dates back to the XVI century, is going to host the performance of the Military Band of the Military Training and Research Center “Combined Arms Academy of the Russian Federation Armed Forces”.

The concert is going to be held within the annual “Military Bands in the Park” program organized by the Directorate of the International Military Music Festival “Spasskaya Tower” with the support of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation and Government of Moscow.

The day will see performance of different music pieces of the past such as old-time Russian marches and classical music compositions as well as modern days’ melodies. The organizers are sure that the park’s atmosphere created by the descending sequence of ponds, oak grove, Italian and Chinese gardens as well as buildings of the ancient mansion will add a special festive touch to the concert.

The main idea of organizing military bands’ performances at the open-air venues of Moscow is to revive one of the most romantic traditions of the capital — military bands’ performances in the parks, gardens and squares. Besides, it’s an excellent opportunity for the Muscovites and guests of the capital to get acquainted with the work of musicians, many of whom are participants of the International Military Music Festival “Spasskaya Tower”.

Concerts of the bands within the Program are being held every week from May till August.

Performances last for about an hour and entrance is free (0+)

To recap, this year’s military music marathon started on May 19 in the Alexander Garden. It’s going to embrace more than a dozen of parks and gardens. The marathon is going to be adjourned August 18.

The concert in the “Vorontsovo” mansion is going to be held on the main stage of the park July 7, at 17:00.
