Murmansk Philharmonic Orchestra

Article contains no secondary sources, nor can I see any criterion from WP:NMUSIC met for this orchestra. Presumably, if any sources exist they will likely be in Russian, but I have tried to search for sources in English and Russian, and come up with nothing. — Bilorv(talk)(c)(e) 20:50, 1 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep I presume that Russian-language sources exist. Most cities of this prominence in the English-speaking world have pages for their orchestras (three chosen at random include Tulsa, Leeds, Spokane), and the primary sources are sufficient for verifiability. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 19:43, 4 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep A search of Russian sources reveals some basic stuff, I suspect there is more offline / as books, but I can't prove it one way or the other because neither Gbooks or my university do Russian books. The orchestra itself is quite new, established in 1975, however the have been decorated with the (very high honor) Order for Merit for the Fatherland 2nd class, and have played internationally with the Norwegian National Opera. They are a relevant official state-funded regional orchestra with their own 600 seat music hall, a good selection of notable members and participation in major events, often with other groups, not just in Russia but in Europe as well.
