The event was held at the foot of the ancient Chilpik fortress, where classical music, Eastern poetry, and ethnic motifs were combined.

The main participant of the evening was the world-renowned Russian pianist Kirill Richter, who performed with the Uzbekistan National Symphony Orchestra. The concert, titled "The Sands of Time," became a true dialogue of epochs inspired by the works of the great poets of the East - Alisher Navoi, Babur, Omar Khayyam, and Nadira.

"This concert is a symbiosis of symphonic music, Eastern philosophy, and folk traditions. The Chilpiq Fortress has become not just a historical monument, but an epicenter of creativity and inspiration for a moment," said presidential aide Saida Mirziyoyeva.
