The concert will open on December 6 with the performance of renowned German violinist - Colia Blacher and US-based Turkish pianist Ozgur Aydin and will be hosted by the Georgian Art Palace. On December 8, the Georgian Writers' House will host a concert featuring the chamber orchestra Opera Camerata (led by Lela Mchedlidze), conducted by Revaz Javakhishvili with soloists: Julia Pusker and Eva Rabetska, laureates of the Queen Elizabeth II International Competition in Brussels in 2019. On December 10, a prominent Vietnamese pianist Dang Tai Shon, who now resides in Canada will perform a solo concert. The evening will be held at the Palace of Fine Arts of Georgia. Furthermore, on December 14, the National Youth Palace will host one of the leading Polish Symphony Orchestras - the Beethoven Academy Orchestra (conductor - Mirian Khukhunaishvili) in conjunction with a performance conducted by pianist - Shimon Nering. The event is co-sponsored by the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage of Poland from the Fund for the Promotion of Culture.

Countries with rich musical traditions have long used unconventional, alternative venues such as depreciated factories and museums, abandoned galleries, libraries, and many more to promote classical music concerts, which on the one hand serves to promote classical music and, on the other, attracts more audience.

Festival partners: IOTA Hotel, Yevgeny Mikeladze National Music Center, Georgian Writers' House, National Pupil's Youth Palace, Art Palace of Georgia, Radio Fortuna, Artarea TV, First Channel - Public Broadcaster.
