«The Sands of Time»

For the first time, a large-scale open-air concert titled “The Sands of Time” was held at the foot of the ancient Chilpyk Fortress in Karakalpakstan. The performance by renowned Russian pianist Kirill Richter was accompanied by the National Symphony Orchestra of Uzbekistan. The concert blended Eastern poetry, ethnic motifs, and symphonic music, building a bridge between eras and cultures.

“This is a unique event inspired by the works of great Eastern poets – Babur, Navoi, Khayyam, Nadira. It became a symbol of spiritual awakening and cultural unity. An idea that inspires the world!” said Saida Mirziyoyeva, a presidential aide.
