OREANDA-NEWS  795 child artists gathered on one stage of the Moscow Concert Hall - thus the ethnographic musical "The Necklace of Russia. Heroes of Our Time" set a national record as the "Performance with the largest number of participants."

Talented children and teenagers from 32 regions gathered in Moscow to perform in a theatrical musical show. This event was recorded by an expert from the Russian Book of Records.

The participants of the ethnomusicale were pupils of music schools, art schools, artists of amateur groups from all over the country — 37 groups and 43 soloists, finalists of the All-Russian competition, which has been organized for the third year by the Office of Creative Industries with the support of the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation.

For six months, there were auditions and qualifying rounds, online classes with the project's directors and creative gatherings. Face-to-face contests were held in 10 cities of Russia. The children competed in singing, dancing, possession of musical instruments, theatrical and circus arts. In total, almost 15 thousand children took part in the qualifying rounds.
