"The All-Russian Youth Symphony Orchestra was established almost seven years ago. During this time, the group performed in various Russian cities, there were two European tours ... And now we are setting out on our first tour across Asian countries, and it will right away be so full-fledged: Singapore, Shanghai, Beijing and Seoul," Bashmet was quoted as saying by his press service.
