The 27th Beijing Music Festival will be held from 5 to 13 October. This is reported by Xinhua News Agency, a partner of TV BRICS.
The event programme includes 10 concerts featuring musicians from different countries, including China, Russia and South Africa. The festival will be opened by the National Symphony Orchestra of the People's Republic of China under the direction of world-renowned composer Tan Dun.
