Stravinsky
Tatar State Symphony Orchestra
Conductor Alexander Sladkovsky

The Tatarstan National Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1966 under the management of the conductor Natan Rakhlin, who headed the orchestra up until his death in 1979. The first concert took place in April 1967 at the Tatar Opera and Ballet Theatre. In 1985 Fuat Mansurov was appointed its Artistic Director and Principal Conductor; he was to lead the orchestra for a quarter of a century. In 2010, following the death of Mansurov, Alexander Sladkovsky became the orchestra’s Artistic Director and Principal Conductor. A new stage in the orchestra’s history had begun. The orchestra has organised international music festivals such as Rakhlin Seasons, White Lilac, Kazan Autumn, Concordia, Denis Matsuev and Friends, Creative Discovery and Miras, as well as the project The Wealth of the Republic for talented pupils at music schools and students at conservatoires, the educational projects Music Lessons with an Orchestra and Magical Strings of the Orchestra for school pupils of Kazan and the charitable project Healing Through Music for those with disabilities and for severely ill children.
