The new week has started. We’ve got many interesting things going on.

This week, on stage of the Mariinsky Theatre we are hosting our guests from Naples: the Opera and the Orchestra of the Teatro di San Carlo (I pagliacci on October 19th & 20th, Verdi Gala on October 21st). This weekend, on stage of the Mariinsky Theatre we are presenting a new project that stars Diana Vishneva: Dialogues (October 22nd & 23rd). This weekend, at the Mariinsky Concert Hall, we’re performing Benjamin Britten’s opera A Midsummer Night’s Dream staged by Claudia Solti, last premiere of the previous season, one of the brightest productions designed specially for the Mariinsky Concert Hall (October 22nd & 23rd).

The Mariinsky Theatre Symphony Orchestra and Valery Gergiev continue their USA & Canada tour and the Mariinsky Ballet continues its 24-day residency on stage of the Teatro Regio in Turin.

The whole October goes for us under the sign of Tchaikovsky. Our Orchestra performed a complete Tchaikovsky Symphony cycle in Beijing, New York (Carnegie Hall) and Berkeley. We are performing selected symphonies by Tchaikovsky at the USA and Canadian venues on our tour. Earlier this month we released our first DVD and Blu-Ray Mariinsky Label recordings of Tchaikovsky’s Symphonies Nos. 4, 5 & 6 made in Paris in January 2010. Later this month, the Mariinsky Orchestra and Valery Gergiev will pay a three-evening visit to Baden-Baden Festspielhaus in order to perform the complete Tchaikovsky Symphony cycle and his instrumental concerti with the 14th International Tchaikovsky Competition Winners.

In mid-September, iTunes has launched the audio version from our DVD/Blu-Ray release of Tchaikovsky Symphonies Nos. 4, 5 & 6. This is exclusive to iTunes and will not be made available anywhere else, on either CD or download. The albums are sold individually, priced at $7.99 (US) or £5.99 (UK) and include video of one movement for each and a digital booklet. And of course all of our Mariinsky Label audio recordings (ten releases to date), which have been released in SACD, can also be purchased and downloaded on iTunes, so you can always listen to our releases ahead of their appearance on sale in retail. In addition to our releases, iTunes has set up Valery Gergiev Fan Room that gives an opportunity for all Maestro’s fans to stay updated with the news about his records: both on the Mariinsky Label and the LSO Live. Through Ping, the iTunes’ native social network, you could share your news and impressions about our concerts and recordings. Finally, whether you are attending our concerts or not, feel free to follow what’s going on tours via our Facebook and twitter pages.

You see: there are many ways to enjoy our music-making!
