The State Conservatoire’s Great Hall in Tbilisi will host the closing gala concert of the 2026 season of “Evenings of Georgian Classical Music” on November 12 at 19:00. Titled “Tamar Licheli and Friends,” the event brings together a dozen leading Georgian performers for a varied classical programme.
Performers scheduled to appear include Tamar Licheli, Valerian Shiukashvili, Davit Aladashvili, Lizi Ramishvili, Gigi Pianomeni, Natalia Kutateladze, Irakli Evstapishvili, Giorgi Khaindrava, Nodar Mdivani, Natia Kavtaradze, Giorgi Shaverzashvili and Temur Gugushvili. As is customary for the series’ season finale, the concert will include premieres of new musical works.
The concert series was launched in 2024 on the initiative of pianist Tamar Licheli and has since gained recognition in Georgian musical circles. Beyond Tbilisi, it has previously staged performances in Gori, Telavi, Batumi, Kutaisi, Zestaponi, Senaki, Khoni, Tskaltubo and Borjomi. The project is supported by Georgia’s Ministry of Culture, the Creative Georgia agency, Tbilisi City Hall and the Georgian Composers’ Union.
