    The Onegin National Opera Awards were created to popularize Russian opera, to define guidelines for excellence in the development of modern Russian operatic theatre, AND TO SPOTLIGHT THE LEADING
    PERFORMERS OF OUR TIMES.

    This is the first professional opera award in Russia. It's a great idea and a significant event for St. Petersburg.

    I would like to wish this ceremony continuous high quality because, in my opinion, the fates of young opera singers rely on it. I am grateful to
    those who are responsible for the realization of this noble, much needed and timely idea and I wish them a successful and prosperous development in the future.
