The Novorossiysk
Chimes festival completed on September 06 with a spectacular gala concert at
the City Theater. This year, the
festival followed a new format. August 15 through September 06, performance
stages across the city hosted 9 concerts attended by more than 6,000
spectators. Symphony music and opera that have become customary for the
festival were organically complemented with jazz and cinema themes. Patriotic
pieces were given special emphasis on the occasion of the 80th
Anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War. Alpine horn and church bells were introduced
into the festival program this year. Ballet Night was also presented for the
first time.
Novorossiysk
Chimes music theme was created back in 1960 by Dmitri Shostakovich to become
the official anthem of the hero city of Novorossiysk. The first festival was
conducted with assistance of the Caspian Pipeline Consortium on September 10,
2022 at the Forum Square. Some 3,500 visitors attended the event. It was a
success, and a decision followed to deliver the festival on an annual basis.
