A solemn concert will be held in St. Petersburg to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Northern Choir.
On April 12, 2026, a grand concert titled "Song of the Russian North" will take place on the stage of the BKZ "Oktyabrsky," dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the State Academic Northern Russian Folk Choir. The event will be held with the support of the Presidential Fund for Cultural Initiatives.
The Northern Russian Folk Choir is a unique collective that preserves the rich song, dance, and musical traditions of the Russian North. Its performances are a vivid combination of mastery and a careful attitude towards traditions. The anniversary concert will be a true celebration for all who appreciate the richness of heritage, the beauty of national art, and the uniqueness of Russian northern folklore.
The concert program promises to be an unforgettable journey into the rich world of Russian folk culture. The audience will hear ancient songs of the North, passed down from generation to generation, and feel the atmosphere of ancient rituals and traditions. A special place in the concert will be occupied by folk compositions that convey the richness of the musical heritage of the Russian North. In addition, the audience will be able to appreciate modern interpretations of folk melodies created by talented musicians, colorful dance numbers, and virtuoso performances on folk instruments. The program will be interesting for everyone: from tradition enthusiasts to lovers of new stage forms. The anniversary celebrants will be supported on stage by artists: singer Valeria Chaika and Chapayev.
This event is a unique opportunity to touch upon centuries-old traditions and feel the power and beauty of the Russian North, to immerse oneself in the spirit of national culture, and to look at the richness of folk art from a new perspective.
In addition to the concert on April 12 in St. Petersburg, the Northern Choir plans a tour across Russian cities, during which a performance will take place on April 9 on the stage of the State Kremlin Palace in Moscow. The grand concert at the Arkhangelsk Drama Theater named after M.V. Lomonosov in December 2026 will conclude the anniversary year. This tour and the final shows will allow an even wider audience to touch upon the richness and beauty of northern folklore and become part of the celebration of the legendary collective's anniversary.
