A Rare Evening of Russian Seven-String Guitar Returns to Nizhny Novgorod

A special musical evening will celebrate the Russian seven-string guitar on April 4. The concert takes place at the Balny Zal of the Rukavishnikov Estate in Nizhny Novgorod. Guests will hear performances by Sergey Perelyokhov and Tigran Tandilyan, with the event starting at 18:30. The programme features transcriptions of classical masterpieces alongside works by M. Vysotsky, M. Pavlov-Azancheev, V. Vavilov, and Sergey Orekhov. Both musicians are skilled in playing both classical and seven-string guitars, offering a varied and technically rich performance.

Admission to the concert requires a ticket, with no free entry available. This marks the first event of its kind at the Nizhny Novgorod Museum-Reserve in three years, as no similar concerts have been recorded there since 2021.

The evening promises a rare opportunity to experience the seven-string guitar in a historic setting. With a mix of classical and contemporary pieces, the performance will showcase the instrument's versatility. Tickets are required for entry, and doors open at 18:30.
