SYMPHONY OF THE BLACK SEA
Taurica. The land of gods and the dream of poets. Yalta — the very same Gialos, discovered
by the Argonauts. Today, it is the resort capital of Crimea. Here, a kilometer away from the
coastline, on the premises of the Kirov Holiday Center, not only can you enjoy the quiet and
a breath of fresh air from the sea, but glance behind the curtains of the concert hall where
the collective of the Crimea Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra are working on their repertoire.
HISTORY
The Crimean State Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1937, legislated by the City Council of Yalta. Ever since, the world of concert performance has been growing rapidly, influenced by many greatly talented contemporaries, such as Alexander Vertinsky, Claudia Shulzhenko and Lidia Ruslanova.
TODAY
Today, the orchestra is one of the best artistic collectives in Ukraine, touring in Belorussia, Moldavia, Lithuania, Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan, as well as in Moscow, St. Petersburg and other major Russian cities; also in Ukraine — in the capital city of Kiev, and in major regional capitals.
THE ORCHESTRA
Artistic Director and Principal Conductor — Merited Artist of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea Igor Kazhdan
