Историческая справка

The construction of Moscow International Performing Arts Centre (House of Music) was initiated by Moscow mayor Yury Luzhkov and musician and social activist Vladimir Spivakov. Before 2002 there were two major musical center’s in Moscow: The Grand Hall of the Moscow Conservatory, built 100 years ago, and Moscow Tchaikovsky Concert Hall - a re-equipped building of the Meyerkhold theatre. The House of Music contains several concert halls, a recording studio, exhibition space and summer theatre. On the opening ceremony President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin named the House of Music "a stunning crystal goblet". Yet, "a stewpot" became its popular name. A treble clef covered in mozaic gold designed by Zurab Tsereteli tops the dome. Svetlanov hall also has the largest organ in Russia, installed in 2004. The organ was co-designed and built by the German firms of Glatter-Goetz and Johannes Klais. It has more than 5,500 pipes, ranging in size from 8 millimetres to 9.25 metres, and covers a truly remarkable range of frequency and volume nuances.
