In a spectacular surrounding at the Mariinsky Theatre, attended by the charming Andie MacDowell, star-conductor Valéry Gergiev who has been joined by Montblanc CEO Lutz Bethge, presented Montblanc New Voices Award to Sergey Semishkur and Mikhail Petrenko.
What a marvellous start for Montblanc at the White Nights Festival 2011. Today has been the first of three eventful days in the St Petersburg, the city which is often nicknamed the “Northern Capital”, the “City of 101 Islands” or the “City of 300 Bridges”.
For many years, Montblanc has been culturally engaged and promotes various projects like the Montblanc de la Culture Arts Patronage Award, the Montblanc Young Directors Project during the Salzburg Festival or the Philharmonia of the Nations.
Inspired by the nature of the symbolic mountain, Montblanc is honouring Europe’s highest mountain with the new “Tribute to the Mont Blanc” Collection.
