Mayor of Durrës, Emiriana Sako, said the concert was part of the city’s ongoing cultural and artistic events for the tourist season. She highlighted that the orchestra offered an emotional and memorable performance for both residents and tourists.

Conductor Saimir Kalaja led the orchestra through a rich repertoire featuring works by both Albanian and international composers.
