ORGAN HALL
Organ hall in Krasnoyarsk - in the past the Roman Catholic Church "the Church of the Transfiguration". The building was built in Gothic style in 1911 (architect Vladimir Sokolovsky) and is a historical monument.
In 1922, the building was nationalized by the Soviet power and in 1936 transferred to the host of cultural objects. For several decades the building of the temple was actually destroyed and only at the turn of 1970-1980-ies began its recovery.
Confirms the Gothic style, a certain lightness and aiming for the top of the building, height with the towers, focus towers, stained-glass Windows. Two monumental towers are connected to the Central building.
16 Sep 1982 temple first opened its doors as a concert hall, and a year later on the stage appeared on the Czech firm "Rieger-Kloss" (3 manuals and pedal, 30 registers). The length of the largest pipe is almost 5 meters, the diameter of the smallest pipe a few millimeters.
Since that time, the Organ hall of the Krasnoyarsk Philharmonic became one of the centers of academic art in Siberia – the only one in the Krasnoyarsk region on a brass showed their art musicians from around the world.
