Leonid Lundstrom Festival unites 66 young musicians in Nizhny Novgorod
The third Leonid Lundstrom Festival has begun in Nizhny Novgorod, bringing together young musicians for six days of training and performances. The event opened on Saturday, March 28, with a grand concert by the Chamber Music Orchestra in the historic Ballroom of the Rukavishnikov Estate. This year's festival focuses on four disciplines: piano, violin, viola, and cello. Participants will take part in master classes, lectures, and evening concerts throughout the week. The regional government has backed the forum, helping to support its activities.
Artistic director Pyotr Lundstrom leads the programme, aiming to sharpen the skills of young performers while introducing them to Russian musical traditions. The event follows two earlier editions, with this year's gathering featuring 66 musicians—a number not previously recorded in past festivals.
The festival runs for six days, offering training and public performances. Organisers hope the experience will strengthen the musicians' abilities and deepen their connection to Russian classical traditions. The event continues until its closing day, with daily concerts scheduled for the evenings.
