The caring face of music
On October 10, St Petersburg became the first Russian city to take part in the global event known as "Voices for Hospices", with a concert featuring works by Verdi, Bizet and Borodin. The aim of the UK-inspired initiative is to draw attention to the issues of hospice and palliative care. The conductor Kristofer Wahlander also included in the programme the premiere of My Way, his own orchestration of an interlude composed by the Russian diplomat David Mnatsakanyan - Russia's consul general in the Swedish city of Gothenburg.
