Report: Russians build a concert hall for Currentzis

Report: Russians build a concert hall for Currentzis

The controversial Greek-Russian conductor Teodor Curentzis ended his last western engagement two weeks ago. Currentzis has maintained a pretence of being independent of the Putin regime.

Now, VAN reports that the Russians are welcoming him back home with the promise of a new concert hall in St Petersburg. That means he will join Gergiev in the boycott room.

This could be the last we see of Teo for a generation.
