The St Petersburg Rimsky-Korsakov College of Music – one of
Russia’s oldest academic institutions offering secondary-school level
professional musical education and almost the only such institution
in St Petersburg that has retained the traditions of Russian
classical music teaching to the present day. The college can trace its
roots back to the “Rapgof Courses” in music and drama that were
founded by the Russian pianist and teacher Yevgeny Pavlovich
Rapgof 1882. With the passing of time,
in the 1920s and 30s the educational establishment was
restructured several times, and from 1934 it became part of
the Leningrad Conservatoire and for a long period –
from 1936 to 1991 – it was called the “Music School of
the Leningrad Conservatoire”. The Alma Mater of several
generations of musicians, the college retains its high status of
unquestionable authority and is one of the foremost centres of music
learning. The college has trained a plethora of outstanding musicians. They
include stars of world opera such as Pavel Lisitsian, Olga Borodina and Anna
Netrebko, the composers Andrei Petrov and Boris Tishchenko and
the conductor Veronika Dudarova. Popular performers and stage artistes
studied here, among them Lyudmila Senchina and the composer Igor Kornelyuk.
Graduates of the college have made a significant contribution to
the growth of Russian music studies, and they are to be found among
teachers in music schools, soloists in orchestral ensembles and music
theatres in St Petersburg and other towns and cities.
The wonderful traditions of the Russian school of music that they have
assimilated are being passed on to new generations of young performers, both
in Russia and abroad. Various ensembles play a special role
in the life of the college: a female and a mixed chorus, string,
brass and symphony orchestras, an orchestra of folk musical instruments and
various other instrumental ensembles. Established practices include regular
performances by the choruses, orchestras and soloists from among
the students and teachers at concert venues in St Petersburg and
other towns and cities as well as numerous victories at festivals and
competitions.
