The International Music Festival “Night Serenades” to be hosted in the Tbilisi Concert Hall on September 22, 23 and 24. Georgian and foreign classical music will be performed once again at the fifteenth anniversary festival.

“Night Serenades” is an international festival with the longest history in Georgia, which has been existing for 41 years. The idea of creating the mentioned festival belongs to the world-famous Georgian violinist and conductor, People’s Artist of Georgia - Liana Issakadze, who is one of the greatest musicians of the century. She was included in the Encyclopedia of 2000 Prominent Musicians of the 20th Century by the Cambridge Bibliographic Center (England, 2002).

In 1982, Liana Issakadze founded the international festival “Night Serenades” in the most beautiful part of Georgia, Abkhazia, which took place in Bichvinta in summers and was very popular. Unfortunately, due to the tragic events in our country, the festival ceased to exist in 1991, and it was possible to restore it only 18 years later, in 2009, in the beautiful Black Sea city - Batumi.

Over the prolific history of the festival many legendary musicians have participated in it such as Alfred Schnittke, Kurt Mazur, Gidon Kremer and many others.
