The International Competition for Young Musicians “Symphony of Yamal” will be the first academic music competition to be held in the Arctic zone!
The competition is destined to promote classical music. It will help young gifted musicians to make themselves known, meet fellow musicians, and exchange their experiences, provide opportunities for professional development of talented young performers. The international format will help to strengthen and expand cultural ties between across the borders.
The competition will feature performances by such legends of contemporary Russian and international stars as Denis Matsuev, Valery Piassetski and others. It is an outstanding opportunity for young talents to be inspired by the masters and receive valuable lessons and instruction from them. The prize fund will enable the winners to realize their creative dreams and act as a major boost for their professional development.

This competition will help to ensure the continuity of generations of the Russian performing school, support young musicians at the formation stage of their artistic development and will be considered as a milestone of Russia’s national musical culture, helping to discover new talents.
I am heartily pleased that similar musical projects, which involve such a scale and level of organization, are ready to be implemented in the various regions of Russian Federation
