Career milestone
Renowned Bahraini composer and conductor Wahid Al Khan has received an official invitation from the government of Saint Petersburg, Russia, to perform at the prestigious Saint Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF), scheduled for June 2025.
The Kingdom of Bahrain will participate in the event as the guest of honor.
This recognition marks a significant milestone in Al Khan's distinguished international career, following the success of his previous performances in Russia.
His concerts drew large audiences and received critical acclaim across Europe, further cementing his reputation on the global stage.
As part of the forum's cultural program, a new collaborative musical initiative titled 'Symphony of Music: Russia– Bahrain' will be launched.
The project will feature Al Khan conducting the St. Petersburg Symphony Orchestra in a performance celebrating the 35th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Bahrain and Russia.
The symphony is intended to serve as a symbol of the deep-rooted cultural and humanitarian ties between the two nations.
The event also forms part of the broader 'Bahrain Days' celebrations in Russia — an initiative that underscores the strong and growing cooperation between the two countries, particularly in cultural and economic spheres.
