Harp Gala

The laureate of international competitions Elizaveta Alexandrova (harp) and the leading soloists of the St. Petersburg Opera present a concert of opera arias performed to the accompaniment of harp and fantasies on themes from famous operas.
Elizaveta Alexandrova is one of the virtuoso performers. She is characterized by an amazing organic performance and a subtle psychological reading of the works. The inner spiritually rich, philosophical and poetic world allows one to boldly interpret both classical and contemporary music. The repertoire of Elizaveta Alexandrova is extensive, the various themes of the concerts (baroque, classical, contemporary, Russian, foreign music) attract not only the local audience in St. Petersburg but also guests of the city.
“The secret of the ‘magic’ of her own harp is not only in the sophistication of sound – fragile, like the ringing of the finest crystal, transparent, like a drop of the purest spring, or, on the contrary, deep, melodious, velvety, but in penetration and emotionality, which are rare for instrumentalists. Alexandrova is a musician who creates a complete image in each piece,” wrote Svetlana Rukhlya, theatre critic.
