"People always return to classical music, because it is something eternal, bringing up good taste in us, a sense of beauty," says Murge's Count.

Admittedly, he is one of the brightest, gifted and sought-after European violinists. Honored Artist of Russia, well-known musician in Europe Graf Murzha was the last Soviet and the first Russian violinist to become the winner of international competitions. In June 2010, Murza won the gold medal Grand Prix at the prestigious violin competition ViolinMasters in Monte Carlo.

For the first time picking up a violin in three years, now the maestro is playing virtuoso on an ancient instrument, which is more than 300 years old!

The musician is the soloist of Mosconcert, who has played many programs in the concert activity of the philharmonic department. Often, the Count combines in one program different, often far apart musical epochs. In the present program, Alfred Schnitkesedespaces Strauss and Mozart, and concludes the Fantasy Concerto on the themes from the opera "Carmen" by Jean Bise Rosenblatt.

The musician plays a significant part of the concerts with Natalia Gus, a regular pianist, laureate of the Sarasate Competition (1997).
