On June 13, at 23:45, NTV will show a TV version of the VII BraVo International Professional Music Award Ceremony in the field of classical art.

This event, held annually on the Historical Stage of the Bolshoi Theater, brings together opera, ballet, and classical performers from more than ten countries around the world – from Japan to Saudi Arabia, from South Africa to Serbia. This year, the BraVo Award ceremony was timed to coincide with the 25th anniversary of Radio Monte Carlo.

The gala concert dedicated to the award ceremony was attended by the prima ballerina of the Bolshoi Theater Svetlana Zakharova, whose performance of Camille Saint-Saens's "The Dying Swan" is a benchmark in world ballet. The world's most famous compositions performed by opera stars Ksenia Dudnikova, Kristina Mkhitaryan and Igor Morozov will also be performed on the stage of the Bolshoi Theater. The trio of virtuoso pianists Bel Suono will present Antonio Vivaldi's composition "Summer" from the concert series "The Four Seasons" in the author's treatment.

The audience will be able to see exclusive performances by soloists from the world's leading theaters – tenor Lukanjo Moyake from South Africa, who performed Lensky's aria from the opera Eugene Onegin, organist Hiroko Inoue from Japan, who dueted with Veronika Kozhukharova to present "Fly Away on the Wings of the Wind" from the opera Prince Igor, soprano Rimaz Okbi, who performed for the first time in history at the opera singer from Saudi Arabia and many others on the stage of the Bolshoi Theater.

In commemoration of the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War, Elena Sever, accompanied by the choir of the Sretensky Monastery, performed the heartfelt song "Return the Memory" to the words of the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova.

The grand gala concert will end with an impressive performance by all the BraVo Award winners, who performed the legendary choral composition "Glory" from Mikhail Glinka's opera "Life for the Tsar", accompanied by the Bolshoi Theater Choir and the Sretensky Monastery Choir.
