Our artist Nathan East and the Yamaha Band Contest Final Russia attracted many enthusiasts, who stayed listening to the music even after the show closed. We feel that our participation, under the global corporate slogan Passion and Performance has been a brilliant success, and that through the show we can help develop the culture of the music industry in Russia.
