As for the Festival of Music Theatres See Music, it’s the most representative review of the Russian music scene. In 2024, it was held at all music theatres in Moscow from September to November and presented more than 40 productions of various Russian music theatres. The Festival was organized by the Association of Music Theatres headed by Artistic Director of the Natalia Sats Children's Music Theatre Georgy Isaakyan (Krasnoyarsk music fans know him as the production director of the opera Yermak by Alexander Tchaikovsky). The goal of the See Music festival is the forming of creative ties and contacts between theatres of the federal regions.

At the 2nd Festival See Music in 2017, the Krasnoyarsk Opera and Ballet Theatre introduced the production of César Cui's rare opera The Prisoner of the Caucasus, which had not been staged in Russia for a hundred years.
