Denis Matsuev, Mikhail Pletnev, Maxim Vengerov and other world-famous Russian performers and conductors, as well as many outstanding musicians from other countries, will take part in the 10th InClassica International Music Festival, which starts on August 28 in Dubai, TASS reports.

The InClassica festival has traditionally been held in Malta and was supposed to take place in the spring of 2021. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, it was decided to postpone the festival and hold it in Dubai. The anniversary festival brought together many outstanding musicians of the academic school from all over the world.

Russia will be represented by pianists Denis Matsuev and Andrei Gugnin, conductors Mikhail Pletnev and Alexander Sladkovsky, violinists Maxim Vengerov and Sergei Dogadin, cellist Alexander Knyazev and other performers. The Russian National Orchestra, the Kaliningrad Symphony Orchestra and other renowned ensembles are taking part in it.

Russian teachers will take part in an educational program that will start as part of the festival in September.
