We will celebrate the Year of Cinema with favorite melodies from classical domestic and foreign films performed by academic musicians.

A series of special subscriptions for children and youth - in the Concert Hall named after N.Ya. Myaskovsky. Famous musicians tell about composers, genres, instruments in the cycles “Bach's Universe”, “Journey to the country of Organia”, “And the image of the world manifested in sound”, “What is hidden in music?”.

Today it will be purely useful, of the format “where to go with the child on the weekend” and “concerts with children” and the like. Music subscription professionals may not read the text for beginners about children's subscriptions to the Moscow Philharmonic and the Conservatory.

So. Why now. Because it's been a week since the season for season tickets for adults and children opened. You can choose. Two main directions of the format "children + classical music" (and not only).

Classics of the genre — children's subscription №4, Moscow Conservatory. Conductor and narrator - Vyacheslav Valeev. Concerts on Sundays (only 4 per season), duration about an hour. Valeev copes well with the children's audience, K. loves him very much. It is important to understand that children's passes do not mean that your child will sit in one place, stretched out along the line. It's not like that at all. For example, at one of the subscription concerts, the children sang songs together with the orchestra in the audience, K. was very inspired, then for two days he told how he liked it, singing like this at the conservatory. The cost of a subscription for the next season is 1200-8000 rubles.

In addition to the classic fourth season ticket, there is also Journey Around the World - each concert is dedicated to a country, for example, France. We listen to Debussy, Ravel, Poulenc. And so on. There is a subscription dedicated to great composers, there is a "fabulous subscription".

The Moscow Philharmonic offers an even larger selection of subscriptions for children. We went to listen to The Funny Professor this season. Each concert is themed, Pavel Lyubimtsev wonderfully talks about very different things, Osipov's orchestra supports, slides are displayed on the screens, in a word, everything is done ideally for children so that no one is bored. For example, yesterday K. went to the concert “From Moscow to the Pacific Ocean. Great Russian travelers-discoverers of the Far Eastern lands. He came out in absolute delight, told about Bering, Kamchatka, geysers, Yakut music. In a word, this is not just an acquaintance with music, but also a conditionally “educational program”, and Pavel Lyubimtsev talks about everything so excitingly, without flirting and flirting with a children's audience, but with a lot of interesting facts, wonderful intonations that both adults and children listen to. For example, I arrived early yesterday to pick up K., decided to come in, sit in the lobby for a while, listen a little, and then run away on business. But in the end, I watched the whole concert on the screen - I just could not tear myself away.

In fact, the Philharmonic offers dozens of subscriptions for children, with a wide variety of topics. If you like fairy tales and music, there are a lot of “fairy season tickets”. For example, “Tales with an orchestra. Saturday afternoon symphonic concerts for children” with the participation of the beautiful Yulia Peresild and Chulpan Khamatova, a wonderful subscription of “regional music” conducted by Artem Vargaftik, there is a subscription “How a forest worker taught the musical alphabet”. Daytime concerts for kids from 3 to 7 years old” for the very youngest, the only one on the Philharmonic website that goes not 6+, but 0+. In general, for every taste.

By the way, with regard to age. I hesitated for a long time when to start these trips to concerts with a child, in the end I decided not to take him anywhere at three, we started going at four, in our case it turned out to be the very age. He goes season tickets 6+, no questions.

Finally, one more story that sometimes stops people - like buying a subscription, then getting sick, skipping it, and so on. In fact, as usual, there is no spoon. In our practice, we missed only one concert out of eight due to illness. But, if you are still in doubt, you can buy tickets for some subscriptions right before the concert at the box office.

The most practical question. When to buy. Buy better right now. Because some subscriptions sell out quickly and quickly disappear from sale. It is also important when choosing a subscription to pay attention to the venue of the concert, so as not to come to the Tchaikovsky Hall when the concert takes place at the Philharmonic-2 in the Olympic Village. And yes, the subscription is valid for one person, and not for a combination of an adult and a child.

On this, it seems, the musical life hacks are over, I'll go fry the duck for lunch.

The perception of the fine arts requires preparation: the ability to listen to classical music and understand ballet comes if you systematically give it time and attention. We have selected for you the most interesting programs in Moscow, offering a harmonious trajectory for the musical education of children.

Separately, we would like to note that it is better to buy tickets in advance - the places "scatter" very quickly, and luck is often needed to get to each concert of the program.
