The Children's Symphony Orchestra of Atomic Cities played a concert in the ATOM pavilion. Its participants are fifty young musicians. The orchestra's artistic director is an outstanding Soviet and Russian violist and conductor, People's Artist of the USSR, Professor Yuri Bashmet, and its conductor is Freddy Cadena, the founder and chief conductor of the Amadeus Chamber Orchestra at the Union of Moscow Composers. The event was supported by Rosatom State Corporation and the Rosatom Cultural Territory program.

"The Children's Symphony Orchestra of Atomic Cities is our pride, because we were able to unite talented children from different atomic cities and create a bright band with a subtle sense of beauty. Many thanks to these young professionals. And, of course, endless gratitude to our artistic director Yuri Bashmet: thanks to a miraculous meeting with him, our talented musicians are growing and the project itself is successfully developing. And together with our wonderful conductor Freddy Cadena, music simply comes to life," said Oksana Konysheva, head of the Rosatom Cultural Territories program.
