An art critic, a senior lecturer Nataly Pokrovskaya:

«There are things which are not found out and learnt at once, but can stun and give the sensation of catharsis-that clears, inspires and makes us ourselves. Pleasure and tears of catharsis are possible at listening of superb performed musical classical work, at visiting exposition halls, museums, performances, at reading of talented prose or poetry.
Visiting concerts of Krasnoyarsk chamber orchestra helps me to be released from vanity and daily fuss. This star team - talented and responsible – is commanded by Michael Benjumov.
The international festival of chamber-orchestral music "Siberia - Europe" which the orchestra is already carrying out for the sixth time, has pleased with a multi-coloured musical palette. Really musicians treat the sounds like a painter paints, creating bright and expressive musical images. Outstanding performers have enriched us with brave ideas, innovative ways of interpreting classical and modern heritage. Interaction of different cultures, creative partnership of European and Russian musicians introduced magic charm which united all listeners in a concert hall. Chamber -orchestral music is finding more and more admirers. Aspiration to perfection, to higher criteria in the art is not only a personal card of Krasnoyarsk chamber orchestra loved by the citizens, but also fast developing capital of Krasnoyarsk territory."
