Elena Kolchanova, Deputy Minister of Culture of the Perm region, and Antonina Sterina, coordinator and master of the Festival's Educational Program, spoke about the realization of the Educational Program of the International Diaghilev Festival 2024. This year the Educational Program will be held for the eighth time and will offer participants new formats, topics and events.

As Elena Kolchanova noted during her speech, over 400 people have participated in the Educational Program since 2016, many of whom have already contributed to the development of Russian culture.

"A striking example of participants is the Euphoria Orchestra conducted by Elizaveta Korneeva, a 2021 graduate of the Educational Program," Elena Kolchanova said.

"In just two years of existence, Euphoria has presented 11 world and nine Russian musical premieres. This is our musical present. What is being created right now. And we are very proud of our kids and happy to be involved in their creative growth. This is what the Educational Program is all about," she said.

Students of creative universities and teachers of music schools can take part in the program. Lectures and masterclasses are conducted by musicians, composers and artists participating in the main program of the festival. Antonina Sterina announced new formats that will be presented at the Educational Program in 2024.

The event concluded with a performance by the Euphoria Orchestra conducted by Elizaveta Korneeva. In 2023, the orchestra took part in the Main Program of the festival, where it presented the premiere of the experimental open-air opera "Poem of the Mountain", with music by Dmitry Mazurov. Fragments of this work, as well as music by other contemporary composers, were heard by guests of the RUSSIA EXPO.

The Diaghilev Festival is one of the largest musical forums in Russia. It takes place in Perm, where Sergei Diaghilev, an outstanding impresario and propagandist of Russian culture, spent his childhood. The festival seeks to strengthen and develop Diaghilev's traditions and explores various forms of creative search, new theatrical language and contemporary trends in academic music. The organizer of the Diaghilev Festival - 2024 is the Diaghilev Foundation for the Support of Cultural Initiatives. The festival is supported by the Ministry of Culture of the Perm region.
