Children from 12 Moldovan districts to give concert at Chisinau-based Organ Hall

Chisinau, 21 July /MOLDPRES/ - A choir made up of 20 teenagers from 12 Moldovan districts, representatives of various ethnic and social groups, who have not had possibility to study music so far, will give a concert along with the Moldovan National Youth Orchestra, represented by young musicians from Moldova, Romania, Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan and Germany, at the Organ Hall today at 19:00.
