The USSR established this orchestra in 1978 to broadcast throughout the nation the symphonic repertoire of the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. Los Angeles Times hails it as “a crack ensemble that brings a rigorous approach to music-making.” The Asheville Citizen Times praises the players as “consummate technicians who make the most difficult pieces seem easy.” Maestro Alexei Kornienko will conduct this all-Tchaikovsky program featuring violin soloist Nadezda Tokareva. Daytona Beach News Journal says, “her expressive violin shifted effortlessly from the muscular to the ineffably tender.”
