The Regional Philharmonic Society (Veliky Novgorod) was opened in 1944. Today, several instrumental groups, orchestras and vocalists work here. The poster of the Philharmonic offers its listeners a variety of concerts and subscriptions.
Story
The Philharmonic (Veliky Novgorod) was originally called the concert and variety bureau. Despite the fact that it was regional, it was located at the first time of its existence in the city of Borovichi. Novgorod at that time was almost in ruins due to hostilities.
The philharmonic society moved to the regional center only in 1959. The collective received its own building only in 1987. Previously, there was a drama theater. The room is part of the Kremlin ensemble.
Having received its own building, the Philharmonic Society (Veliky Novgorod) began to hold various festivals every year: the festival of Slavic writing and culture, "Christmas Gifts", "Stars of the XXI Century" and others. The collective expanded, it was supplemented by two orchestras. Artists began to go on tour not only in the cities of Russia, but also abroad.
In 2000, the Novgorod temple of music was declared the Philharmonic of the Year.
Today, the team is looking for new forms for working with students, expands its repertoire, holds meetings with artists, presents new genres.
Every year concerts are held here, organized jointly with leading groups and soloists of Russia and the world. For lovers of opera and ballet art, events are held in which dancers and vocalists take part. They perform operas and ballets. But, unlike the theater, these are concert versions, without decorations and costumes. In collaboration with the Mariinsky Theater and Valery Gergiev , the operas The Tsar’s Bride by N. Rimsky-Korsakov and Lucia di Lammermur by Gaetano Donizetti were shown on the stage of the Novgorod Philharmonic. And also, as part of this subscription, a concert of Mariinsky prima Ulyana Lopatkina was held.
A new project is being prepared for release. It is called "Diaghilev evenings." It was created for educational purposes. And also for the popularization of ballet and opera in the Novgorod region.
Since 2011, the Philharmonic has been named after the great composer A. S. Arensky. This obliges the team to organize large-scale projects. One of them was a festival dedicated to the work of Anthony Stepanovich, which exists today.
Active cooperation with the best musicians of Moscow and St. Petersburg continues.
For the younger generation, lecture concerts are held. The team is trying to teach children and young people to listen, understand and love classical music.
The activities of the Philharmonic are aimed at making life more spiritual and interesting.
