"From the partners' side we see a very large number of positive responses and interesting initiatives with proposals to develop cooperation in the field of radio broadcasting. For example, this year the TV BRICS International Media Network and ‘Orpheus’ Radio, our flagship partner, launched broadcasting in Brazil. And now we are already in a number of negotiations with radio stations in Zimbabwe and Mozambique," she added.
On 31 July 2023, Brazilian radio station Toda Palavra (Rio de Janeiro) premiered the Sounds of Russia programme, featuring music by Russian composers performed by the Orpheus Radio Symphony Orchestra. With the assistance of TV BRICS, Brazilian listeners are getting acquainted with Russian musical culture and the performing skills of Russian artists.
Luiz Erthal, editor-in-chief of radio Toda Palavra, welcomed the participants of the international festival 'Radio Without Borders'.
"I would like to welcome the participants of the international festival 'Radio Without Borders' on behalf of the staff of radio Toda Palavra, Niteroi City, Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil. Our region is known all over the world, primarily for carnivals and the "sambo" dance. However, we have many fans of concert classical music, particularly Russian music. For this audience we created the programme "Sounds of Russia". This is the first programme on Brazilian radio dedicated to Russian classical concert music. This project was made possible thanks to the cooperation with TV BRICS and its partner in Russia, ‘Orpheus’ Radio. Now we will be able to introduce the Brazilian audience to the works of wonderful Russian composers, many of whom are known all over the world"Luiz Erthal Editor-in-chief of radio Toda Palavra
Daria Ivankova noted that it's very important for TV BRICS to promote Russian culture and music in the media space of the BRICS and BRICS+ countries, Latin America and Africa.
