Ruse

The Masterclass took place in Ruse from 6 - 9 July 2023, offering a unique opportunity for participants. The highlight of the festival was the concert on the first day. All participants had the opportunity to showcase their musical skills and compete for a remarkable opportunity. The winners of the competition had the privilege of performing as soloists with the Ruse Philharmonic Orchestra in the first part of the closing concert.

The New Millennium International Academy provided a platform for aspiring musicians to develop their skills, learn from renowned teachers and immerse themselves in a vibrant musical community. The event in Ruse promised to be an enriching experience with exceptional performances.

Several prestigious awards were presented, including prizes generously donated by Cantarelli and fashion brand Extreme 2010 to Marian Petkov, Preslav Lambev and Iordanis Santos Mastralexis.

Congratulations to the winners of the Competition Competition: Iordanis Santos Mastralexis (violin), Alexander Karatodoros (clarinet) and Veronika Ilieva (piano). They were rightly featured as soloists at our closing concert and we are delighted to have been able to offer them such a special opportunity to perform.
