Concert of the ...Only Mozart! Program

On 10 February, 2002, the Jupiter Hall of the New Hermitage hosted an ...only Mozart! concert presented by the Hermitage Music Academy. The State Hermitage Orchestra conducted by Georgy Chichinadze (Georgia) performed music of W.A. Mozart, Concert for Flute and Orchestra D major, soloist Orest Severin (flute), Susanna's Aria from The Marriage of Figaro, soloist Viktoria Voytenkova, and Symphony No. 38 D major.
The exclamation ...only Mozart! was the Empress Catherine the Second's answer when she was asked who might be invited to her court to carry out the honorable mission of creating a Russian musical school. The program whose artistic director is Saulus Sondetskis has already presented several concerts. The first of them took place on 5 October, 1999, in the Alexander Hall of the Winter Palace. The Hermitage Orchestra St. Petersburg Camerata and the Glinka Academic Capella performed Mozart's Requiem.
