The ensemble took part in a gala concert dedicated to the 79th anniversary of the Victory of the Soviet People in the Great Patriotic War, held at the State Kremlin Palace.

Victory Day is a special holiday for our country. On this day, the heart of every Russian is filled with joy and triumph of Victory, pride for our Fatherland and sorrow for those who gave their lives in the fight against fascism.

On Victory Day, we pay tribute to the memory of war veterans and home front workers, to all who paid a great price for Victory, defended the right of future generations to a happy, peaceful life.

The heroes of our days, defending the Motherland from neo-Nazis in the Special Military Operation zone, deserve the bright memory of their grandfathers and great-grandfathers.  

All over the country, there are now celebrations and concerts dedicated to the 79th anniversary of the Victory of the Red Army and the Soviet people over Nazi Germany.

"Thank you for your loyalty, descendants!" is the name of the All-Russian cultural and patriotic action aimed at preserving the memory of the valor and heroism of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War. The action consists of a series of concert programs with a patriotic focus. It is difficult to overestimate the role of this action in countering attempts to revise the history of the Great Patriotic War and the decisive role of our country in the victory over fascism. Songs of the war years, works by Soviet composers, choreographic compositions on military themes are acquiring a special sound today. The theme of patriotism, responsibility for the fate of the Fatherland, the theme of the people's memory of the unparalleled feat of our ancestors sounds louder today and in the works of our contemporaries, young composers and poets.

Participation in a festival dedicated to the composer A. P. Averkin

One of the glorious traditions of Russian musical culture is the annual (since 1997) All-Russian Festival of Folk Art in memory of Alexander Averkin, an Honored Artist of Russia and a composer, held in the Sasovo Municipal District of the Ryazan Region. In 2026, the XXIX All-Russian Festival of Folk Art, dedicated to the composer A.P. Averkin, combines two themes. The main theme of the event is the memory and creative legacy of Alexander Petrovich Averkin, the author of over 800 works that remain popular today. But the fact that this year's festival is being held in the composer's homeland gives it a special significance. Exactly 100 years ago, in the summer of 1926, the village of Sasovo was officially declared a city by the Presidium of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee.
