From July 23 to 26, the 2025 World Orchestra Festival is taking place in the Austrian capital. This year, the prestigious musical event has brought together orchestras from over 40 countries worldwide. The Turkmenistan Youth Chamber Orchestra, led by Rasul Klychev, Honored Artist of Turkmenistan, was accorded the high honor of opening the festival.

The grand opening ceremony, featuring the Turkmen ensemble, was held on July 23 at the renowned Vienna City Hall. The group was invited to perform in this esteemed role as the 2024 laureate, having won the gold award in the "Chamber Orchestra" category last year, captivating both the audience and the jury.

As part of its 2025 concert program, the orchestra presented a work by Franz Schubert, once again showcasing its refined technique and expressive artistry on the international stage.

The Turkmenistan Youth Chamber Orchestra only debuted at the festival last year, yet it has quickly established itself as a prominent participant in this prestigious international event. Its success reflects the growing recognition of Turkmenistan's rich musical culture and the high caliber of its young performers. This year's festival program also included concerts, competitions, and master classes, culminating in a grand gala concert.
