Andrey Klassen was born on January 14, 1955. In the small mining town of Saran near Karaganda, in a family of exiled Germans. His father, Abram Abramovich, was a self-taught accordion player. Mother, Maria Genrikhovna, played the seven string guitar and had a great voice. His two sisters, Elena and Elisabeth, received musical education and currently live and teach at music schools in Germany.

This institution is associated with an incredible concentration of the greatest figures in world music history. The oldest music academy in Russia is celebrating this year. In the early years of its existence, it became a gathering place for the highest musical society.

Nissen-Saloman. The conservatory was not a normal educational institution. From the very beginning, the royal house took care of this. The opening took place under the patronage Grand Duchess Elena Pavlovna, wife of Mikhail Pavlovich. It was called the "Russian Musical Society", and based on its own music classes The first Conservatory of Russia was founded. Although the Conservatory was not a public institution of higher education, its graduates received diplomas with freelance artist status, as well as the opportunity to be honored as "honorary citizens."


Student years Graduate of pianists 1974 Temirtavskoye School of Music. In 1979 he graduated from the Novosibirsk State Glinka Conservatory in piano. In 1984 completed postgraduate studies at the piano department of the Institute of Arts in Vladivostok.




After the opening of the St. Petersburg Conservatory there were no permanent rooms for classes or its own concert hall. For more than 30 years, classes had to “travel” throughout the city. Finally, they found their home in the building of the former Bolshoi Theater on Theater Square. The rooms needed almost complete conversion. According to the plans of the architect Vladimir Nikolov, the foundations and walls of the Bolshoi Theater were preserved and integrated into the new building.

In a short article it is very difficult to explain how the traditions of the school and the school of translators of the St. Petersburg Conservatory developed. Of course, the most interesting thing to pay attention to are the outstanding representatives, as well as the most famous events, which represent individual stages musical history Conservatories. Anton Rubinstein was not only the main initiator of the creation of the Conservatory, but also became the first artistic director and the first professor of piano. The musician was immediately given the title of effective state adviser, and he showed through his work that he was rightfully considered high-ranking.














Among the most major projects Andrei Klassen can be credited with recording the orchestral score of the opera by the romantic composer Gustav Schmidt (Female Fidelity). It was possible to recreate the orchestral sound of the score and perform this opera at the Opera Festival in Weinsberg on the ruins of the castle where the events took place in 1140.

Rubinstein can only be compared to a few, because he did so much for the conservatory and vocational training musicians. The scalability of Rubinstein's character was recognized in his life and has not yet been extinguished. Kramskoy, during his enthusiastic creation of music, is to this day a symbol of this industrious force and acts as an incentive for the musicians playing in the small hall of the conservatory. Many years after the creation of the Conservatory, Rubinstein undertook an excellent project: a series of historical concerts of piano music.










To his latest works refers to the song to the verses of Ella Gerasimenko If the heart lives for music children's choir with a string ensemble and piano, which he dedicated to the Children's School of Arts. Dargomyzhsky in Moscow. This piece will be performed for the first time in March 2013. within the walls of the school as part of the celebration of the 200th anniversary of Dargomyzhsky.

At these concerts he not only honored the music of his predecessors, but also paid great attention to his older contemporaries Chopin, Schumann and Liszt. A total of 877 works were performed by 57 composers, stylistically spanning the period from the beginning of the century to the second half. Saremba, an outstanding scholar in the field of theory and practice of music. A talented cello virtuoso, an outstanding conductor, outstanding composer and a great teacher, sacrificed a lot of energy and energy to the conservatory, whose cellist he was from the first year of its foundation.

He is considered the founder of the St. Petersburg cello school. He also introduced new classes for the conservatory: orchestral playing, quartet and opera class. Already in the first year of the founding of the new educational institution, he was appointed not only a professor of the cello class, but also a professor of music history, which, obviously, was associated with his university education, which he received in Moscow at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics. Very wide general education qualified him admirably for this job.

In the first year the Conservatory accepted 179 students, after which there were over 200 musicians annually. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the names of the first graduates of the St. Petersburg Conservatory have gone down in the history of world culture along with their outstanding professors.

His name was the first carved on the marble plaque on the threshold small hall. Beklemische, which represents the seated composer with open account in hand. It is known that Tchaikovsky visited the St. Petersburg Conservatory only for the period of his apprenticeship, because the intensive period of creation, starting with the first symphony, was associated with a move to Moscow and an appointment at the Moscow Conservatory as one of the first professors. The first generation of musicologists approached Saremba, who taught composition theory.

He was also Tchaikovsky's first teacher, and his relationship with him was largely important for fate famous composer. According to documents kept at the Conservatory Museum, he was a respected and respected man whose 50th birthday was celebrated at the Conservatory with a luxurious photo album signed by his colleagues. Later he was elected an honorary member of the Russian Musical Society. Rimsky-Korsakov was appointed professor of instrumental and practical composition. He had no special professional university education, so the young lecturer learned a lot about self-study, which he needed to teach, and was not only good teacher, but also very good student in this regard.

There is no doubt that Rimsky-Korsakov's vocation began new era professional compositional and theoretical education. The young professor taught at the department of composition theory and instrumentation and was the director of the orchestra class. He had an extraordinary influence on all areas of the conservatory. Among other things, he sought a reorganization of harmony courses. The result of these efforts was his first training program and the first textbook on harmony, which later saw several new editions.

Rimsky-Korsakov said that every talented artist must unite two people at the same time: he must be a technician as well as an artist. Just as it is impossible to create moods with technology alone, it is impossible to create entire works with only poetic sensibility. In this context great teacher insisted on the indispensable individualistic method of training talented students.

He developed a detailed system vocational education composers, which was improved over the years and became the Rimsky-Korsakov class. This class has become one of the best and most competent in the conservatory. For almost 40 years this class has graduated from many students of various disciplines. Perhaps that is why the brilliant crowd of his students was amazed, and immediately after finishing his class he was considered a new professor at the conservatory.

Many of Rimsky-Korsakov's students produced warm and enthusiastic memories. Just like they were in their own work, his students greeted him in recognition of their teacher. Lyadov, an excellent master of the best miniatures of pianists and orchestral fairy tales, who appreciate "every note" of their teacher with passion. Prokofiev, who was in the class last year famous life masters

On this moment he criticized foreign music mostly very harshly. However, for the opera “The Legend of the Invisible Town of Kitesh” he behaved with great enthusiasm at the premiere, according to him in my own words, he clapped so hard until his arms hurt to name the composer on stage. Stravinsky, who was a private student of Rimsky-Korsakov, identified with the great musician not only as a teacher or teacher, but even as a father. Rimsky-Korsakov's sons - Andrei and Vladimir - were friends of Stravinsky's youth.

Glazunov. Eminent Russian composer and staunch supporter classical traditions was associated with the Conservatory in endless devotion, ensuring its rise in the most difficult historical conditions.
