On the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow, the Far Eastern Academic Symphony Orchestra performed the musical-poetic composition "Requiem. Eternal Glory to the Heroes" based on the eponymous poem by Robert Rozhdestvensky set to music by Kuzma Bodrov on the Main Stage of the International RUSSIA EXPO.

"Requiem. Eternal Glory to the Heroes" is a heroic-lyric piece about the war, a kind of spiritual testament to future generations, urging them to remember the fallen heroes and cherish peace.

"Today, the Far Eastern Academic Symphony Orchestra — a collective of the Khabarovsk Regional Philharmonic — is on tour in Moscow. At the RUSSIA EXPO, we are performing a significant piece dedicated to the mournful date of June 22, 1941 — 'Requiem. Eternal Glory to the Heroes' by Kuzma Bodrov based on the eponymous poem by Robert Rozhdestvensky. It is a great honor for our collective to perform at such a grand event as the Exposition," said Alexander Veretennikov, Artistic Director of the Khabarovsk Regional Philharmonic.
