It's never too late to plunge into the world of beauty. The playbill has an excellent repertoire, always a full house of grateful spectators. I definitely recommend a cycle of Music Therapy performances, any one is worthy of attention! There are some places in the hall where the view is limited, this is the dress circle seat 2 in any row, starting from 2. Seats on the balcony have a very small legroom between the seats, take this into account who is tall. A good buffet with affordable prices compared to the Opera House

The children and the Nutcracker were watching at the Belgorod Philharmonic. We liked it. Great music, sound and performance. The plot was not based on a fairy tale, but on motives, but Tchaikovsky and the Belarusian dance ensemble were excellent! There was live music with a violin before the performance! After the performance, there was a Christmas tree in the lobby, my children had already outgrown it, but the kids liked it! The only negative impression left was the sale of children's toys in the lobby during the musicians' game. The loud barking Chinese dogs made us forget that we had come to the Philharmonic hall, but created the impression of a market. Requests to temporarily turn off yapping and croaking were perceived aggressively by sellers. Otherwise, everything is fine!

I flew from Moscow to a concert of symphonic music (conducted by Alexander Mikhailovich Anasimov). The building itself is impressive, it really resembles a temple of art, and in fact it is! The staff, the concert hall, and other facilities are all very cool! But of course, the main thing is the magical action that sounds on stage. Anisimov, like an artist with brushstrokes, created a magnificent picture from sounds with his movements, whose name is Life! Many thanks to everyone, and especially to Alexander Mikhailovich!

The Philharmonic Hall is in a very convenient location. Very close to the metro and a large number of Parking lots. The repertoire deserves only praise. The poster is full of concert offers for every taste. I would like to share my impressions of a recent visit to a concert called the Musical Lounge. I've been to these concerts more than once. The atmosphere is simply mesmerizing. You really feel like not just a listener, but a welcome guest. We came out with a great New Year's Eve mood. In addition to music, it was created by a live Christmas tree in the lobby, which is unfortunately rare nowadays. One of the disadvantages is that the chairs are not very comfortable, and it is especially uncomfortable to sit on the balcony. But the beauty of the music and the art of the performers certainly make up for this shortcoming.

I was at Elfimov's concert for the first time at the Philharmonic! Emotions are off the charts - the sound is great, which is the most important thing. Wonderful! It's amazing! Amazing! The hall is beautiful and small, which allows you to have a more "close contact" of the performer with the audience! The chairs are comfortable! Thank you very much

I try to come here at least once a month. I especially like piano concerts and organ music. For some reason, I fell in love with the small hall on the 3rd floor. It is smaller and, apparently, therefore more comfortable. I like to listen to organ music in the big hall. As a rule, you can always park next to the Philharmonic Hall, even if you arrived late. Tickets can be purchased online. Then show it on your phone. What else? After the concert, you can take a walk along evening Avenue. He's damn handsome. And even a large traffic flow does not spoil the atmosphere.

Our family's favorite gym! We have been regularly visiting our Philharmonic hall for many years. For the first time I have an incomprehensible emotion ((- I accidentally got to "music therapy".. Mozart was there. But in the words "relax your hips, shoulders."..It seemed that we were at a session with Kashpirovsky.. Please forgive my subjectivity, but in my opinion, the philharmonic is not the place for therapeutic sessions of such a video sequence in the dark under an ensemble of instruments and some tantric sounds at a price too low-budget and primitive. Somehow, the Philharmonic was unpleasantly surprised. Moreover, not only we have this impression, we heard other puzzled listeners during the intermission, with the same regret. You can relax in a rather quiet version with a video sequence both at home and for free. But also this text at the beginning "about relaxing the members" .. does not fit. For 80 rubles in the stalls and 40 in the gallery.. it smacks of pure commerce. Many private projects were attended at the Philharmonic, but there was never any disappointment. I'm sorry for the opinion, it's subjective. Maybe the Philharmonic is for music , scale and emotional health , and not for dubious sessions for a lot of money.

A wonderful New Year's performance: beautiful costumes, dynamic plot, wonderful choreography. Children and adults watched the production of "The Nutcracker" with pleasure. After watching, children are invited to the lobby to play with the characters of fairy tales.

I went to the Nutcracker musical with the kids on 5.01. Great sound, it was perfectly visible in the partner (on the balcony, only the first two rows should be taken, by the way). It's not a bad production, although the plot is so-so. I recommend it for music lovers and music lovers. It also makes sense to visit from an excursion point of view - the Philharmonic is quite a unique place in Minsk.

We have never written reviews about our wonderful Philharmonic hall. We have been living next to the Philharmonic Hall for many years/decades. We visit regularly. We rejoice in the variety of the repertoire. The Philharmonic itself is a top five! But I still want to discuss something. On November 24, 2024, a performance by Nastya Ivanova and a jazz quartet was announced on the poster, which, as it turned out, included herself (?). In large print it is highlighted: "Glenn Miller - 120". And Nastya Ivanova (trombone, vocals). And that bribed us. Our Philharmonic Hall is a wonderful place, which is an indicator of the level of high-class musicians and performers. And everything seems to be clear. 80 minutes of the concert. A couple of compositions by G. Miller with variations and a "medley".... Not the highest class of performance. It's true. I don't want to discuss the whole quartet, but it was announced that it was "international" (people from different cities). They remembered. The microphone was playing. Nastya reported that their driver was "tuning the sound", like, "he's still studying." They remembered. She probably plays the trombone well (she said she was from Gnesinka), But, excuse me, her voice is not jazz, and not from the 30-40s. A new "reading"? But we didn't read it. Well, that's all I didn't read. Why? But because everything was at the jam session level. Not a performance by a pro, but a skit of jazz musicians who just have fun(?) from his game. This is what big pros can do, whose skills everyone knows about, and these "all" forgive them for slight falsehood and everything else. It's a session, that's how it's done. But there the performers replace each other. Such happiness did not happen here))). But we didn't come to such a performance. We have come to the professionals who can (and should) capture us. This did not happen. The last straw was Nastya's phrase that Glenn Miller is by no means her favorite author/performer, but she loves someone else... because of the microphone settings (oh, the driver), they never heard who this "lucky guy" was. When the call was made for the fourth time to "buy her CD in the lobby after the concert" - the desire to do so completely disappeared. And according to the performance itself, nothing motivated me to do this. My wife and I have only one question: What are the criteria for selecting performers for the country's main philharmonic venue? And it's not about some 30 rubles for a ticket in the 18th row, not even Glenn Miller. And it's not that the trombone is not even close to a trumpet or a saxophone as a soloist. And there was no music, or rather there was very little of it. It's a pity ... God grant Nastya good luck and success in the future (in the way she herself said that she "does it best"). But this is not a solo concert, especially at the PHILHARMONIC. This is more modest for halls...

I recently visited the Belarusian State Philharmonic and was absolutely delighted. Talented performers Nikita Petrov and Anna Bryleva have created a unique atmosphere that you want to return to again and again. The concert program of the Tour de France was diverse, which made it possible to enjoy both classical music and modern works. Separately, I would like to note the high level of organization of events and friendly staff. I recommend all music lovers to visit the Philharmonic Hall — it is a real cultural treasure of our city.

I'm not talking about music right now. There are no complaints about the performance of the music. The sound and visibility are good. Spacious hall, comfortable buffet, clean toilet. but! The chairs are very uncomfortable! They are installed tightly, the back is low, a tiny wooden armrest is one for two... I strongly do not recommend taking a ticket to the central part of the balcony. It's so crowded there, as if these are places for pioneers, and by no means for pensioners, of whom there are more in the philharmonic hall. Narrow and very high steps on the balcony between the rows. The rows are separated by partitions against which the knees rest. It is impossible to move your legs, there is nowhere to chew them if you are more than one and a half meters tall. There's nowhere to put my hands either, I've already written about the tiny handrail. People's shoulders touch each other. It is impossible to take a comfortable position in such an armchair. The beautiful concert was hopelessly ruined. The people in the neighborhood were also clearly struggling to get comfortable. By the end of the concert, I practically did not feel my legs, only a terrible pain in my knees. The photo shows a partition right next to the seats.

We have purchased tickets for a concert dedicated to the 75th anniversary of the birth of composer Leonid Shurman. They came in a good mood, and left after 45 minutes of speaking in shock. The folk ensemble "SVYATTA" performed I can't understand the lyrics, I can't hear them. The microphones are ringing. The sound quality is very very bad. I never thought that listening to music and songs in the Belgorod Philharmonic was simply impossible. Disrespect for the audience. Such concerts cannot be held.

We attended the Philharmonic Hall on 5.01.24, the program "Christmas relaxation". I really liked the Philharmonic hall, a very beautiful live Christmas tree in the lobby, excellent acoustics, very comfortable air temperature in the hall. The most positive impressions remained from the program of the evening "Christmas relaxation". There is a wonderful atmosphere, the musical compositions are perfectly matched, their correct sequence and a beautiful video sequence that creates an atmosphere. I really liked the singing bowls and the sounds of nature. Thanks to all the performers, strong and beautiful vocals. We got peace and pleasure from the evening.

In our difficult times, live music has a very beneficial effect on the nervous system, so I would like to say a huge thank you to the Philharmonic staff for the opportunity to immerse themselves in the world of art for very little money. I view the poster regularly, because tickets are sold out very quickly. There are places for every budget. As for my wishes. I would like to see more jazz concerts. I really liked the literary and musical composition with the participation of Konstantin Khabensky, something like this could well be prepared by the troupes of Minsk theaters.

The impression of wonderful evenings is permanently spoiled only by the eternal rudeness, stupidity and arrogance of the cafeteria staff, such is the service of the "Soviet spill". They never give you a check if it's for cash. If you order coffee in advance, they don't serve it now that they don't know the interval, so even if you insist, the coffee will be cold. It is unclear how others have handled this task before. Otherwise, whether they are musical groups on stage or other employees of the Philharmonic society, they are always extremely polite, courteous and helpful to visitors.

Attention! It's blowing in the hall! Dress accordingly! The chairs are uncomfortable. Ventilation works very well in the hall. To put it simply, it blows strongly there; my wife was cold, and my eyes were watering. The attempt to put on a jacket was stopped by the inspectors - they say, these are the rules, but when asked what to do, they said it wasn't us, it was a plumber. In general, the controllers at the hall behaved in the best traditions: they have someone to blame for all questions ("this is not our responsibility"), rudeness like "this is not a village club." There were no attempts to solve the problem or at least show participation. The chairs in the hall are uncomfortable, the coccyx responded with whining after half an hour. During the intermission, an overly intrusive disc salesman awaits you. The corridor where the wardrobes are is very small and crowded after the end of the performance. On the plus side, the buffet was perfectly organized - in the sense that champagne can be purchased without a long queue. All of the above should be kept in mind if you are going to the Philharmonic. Of course, it does not affect the quality of the performance and the talents of the artists, but it does affect the impressions of the visit.

A beautiful room with comfortable chairs. A brilliant foyer. It's just a pity that the programs have been more and more entertaining lately, and serious music can be heard extremely rarely. Who decided to give preference to banal Hollywood melodies from movies? Rock hits?! Why is there such an emphasis on Western mass culture? And what can you learn there? Under the roar of drums, you will not think about the sublime. The Philharmonic is a temple of music as an art, not three-chord songs. Due to the decline in the level of programs, we visit the Philharmonic with our family less and less every season.

The best and only real concert hall in our capital. Of course, I would like a bigger hall, it does not accommodate all fans of symphonic music. But otherwise everything is fine! Acoustics that allow you to hear music in its natural form, without amplifiers and other nonsense. Beauty, convenience. Comfortable chairs and leg comfort. A beautiful lobby where CDs and books are sold. Wonderful philharmonic groups are the Symphony and chamber orchestra, the Schirma Choral Chapel, the chamber choir, the Zhinovich Folk Orchestra... The Mulyavin Museum is also interesting for many. The Museum of Musical Instruments is located in one of the corners of the lobby. A beautiful Small Hall named after the Screen on the third floor, with very interesting programs. The only drawback is that it is difficult for the disabled and elderly to get there. The costs of the building being built 60 years ago were not thought about at that time. The new Philharmonic was a blessing in itself. She is happy now, but a new concert hall is urgently needed. The Palace of the Republic does not save - there are no acoustics.

I attended an organ music concert with my wife in January 2024. Well, what can I say? Childhood is connected with the Philharmonic… Music school at the Conservatory... piano class... dozens of hours of Bach... subscription to the Philharmonic… The organ is bad. Deaf. Quiet. Constant sound out of sync. The rapid articulation merges into a smeared mess. The lower registers live their own lives. Even an experienced musician, an honored Artist of Russia, could not squeeze any digestible Bach out of him. But it wasn't always like that. He was completely tired after the modernization of 2013. And the remains of the legendary organ in the form of a severed Czech head are gathering dust in the foyer. Sorry.

The building is the center of classical music culture — the main stage of the country. At the same time, the conditions of technical equipment are on the verge of such a minimum. Technical specialists are very good, dedicated workers in their creative ministry. But the conditions in which we have to do our work are almost not created. Technology is moving forward, and we are true to our traditions. But we just need to look back at what is happening in the world of show technology.
