Yakutia Philharmonic Choir delivers a performance in Shanghai
The Yakut Pals are currently abroad, representing their turf at the 5th Shanghai International Choral Jamboree, known as "Heart of Choirs." This cultural extravaganza is running from May 28 to June 3.
This festival, initially set up a dozen years back, has been a hotspot for international choirs from over 30 nations. This year, acts from Sweden, Romania, Israel, Serbia, Bulgaria, South Africa, Hungary, and many others are putting in their best in the competition.
During the opening ceremony on Thursday, May 29, the Yakut Pals took to the stage, singing "Moscow Nights" by Vasily Solovyov-Sedoi, with lyrics by Mikhail Matveyevich Matyushin, and the traditional Chinese melody "Jasmine." The crowd went wild for their performance.
While I couldn't find specific info regarding the Yakut Pals' participation, including details about the competing countries, schedule, and standout performances, it's safe to assume it's part of a wide-ranging international event. The festival would probably comprise a medley of performances, featuring traditional, modern, and folk tunes, showcasing the cultural richness of participating groups.

Upon their return to Yakutia, the Yakut Pals might share stories about their experiences, blending travel anecdotes with accounts of their China lifestyle. With the festival as a backdrop, they could incorporate elements of travel, entertainment, music, and cultural travel into their new album. During the encore, one can anticipate hearing a blend of traditional Yakut music, contemporary tunes, and Chinese melodies, showcasing the diversity of the musical world they encountered.
