Как это было в 2023 году

VII Международный музыкальный фестиваль Ruskeala Symphony прошёл 14 и 15 июля в Горном парке «Рускеала». За два концертных дня фестиваль посетили около 6000 человек из Москвы, Санкт-Петербурга и Ленобласти, Поволжья, южных регионов России и, конечно, Карелии. Погода была временами жаркая, временами дождливая, однако несмотря на это все запланированные концерты состоялись, как на основной сцене в Итальняском карьере, так и на дополнительных: в акватории Мраморного каньона и на территории старой парковки - в районе Визит-центра. В этом году музыкальная палитра была представлена русским и беларусским фолклором, музыкой барокко, джазом, фламенко, мюзиклами и, конечно, произведениями русской и зарубежной классики, а также хитами мировой оперы.
