When I met Rustem Abyazov, I asked him to send me the repertoire of his orchestra. And I got... thirteen (!) pages in small print! I have never seen such a large and diverse repertoire for a chamber orchestra. It got me interested.

I’ve been to many festivals, I can compare. Everything is clear here, everything works, everything is always in place. If you have any questions, you get an answer straight away. Europeans can be jealous of the way the festival is organized.
