The concert will take place in the Snyder Recital Hall in Presser Hall and is free and open to the public.

Nearly half of the more than 1,600 concerts the orchestra has performed to date have taken place in Moscow; the rest were played on tours in 24 countries in Europe, North and South America, and the Far East.
