Cellist and art director of the Musical Expedition Boris Adrianov  noted: "Our task is to convey the beauty of music to everyone and  everywhere! Mix it with the noise of the forest and the singing of  birds. Show the beauty of harmony to people who have never heard the  works of great composers live."

According to the press service of the festival organizers, the best  musicians from Russia, Austria and Canada will go to the Musical  Expedition in Armenia, and the legendary Armenian group Aram  Khachaturian Trio has also been invited to participate.

The goal of the  festival is to convey the beauty of music to everyone, showing the  harmony of music and the surrounding world. The organizers hope that  the festival in Armenia will become a new tradition.

The festival is held with the support of the Public Organization for  the Protection of Historical and Cultural Museum-Reserves and the  Historical Environment (POAK) and the cultural center Common Ground  books and spirits.
