The Glinka Choir College is the oldest professional academic institution in Russia. Its roots date back to 1479 when the Sovereign’s Chorus of Singing Scribes (founded by Grand Duke Ivan III of Moscow in 1476) opened its Chorus of Young Choristers.
The Young Choristers took part in celebrations to mark the founding of the new capital of the Russian State in 1703, and the subsequent history of the ensemble has been forever linked with the history of St Petersburg.

The visit is organised with support of Nordisk Kulturfond Pelle Olofson Stockholms Studentsångare Посольство России в Швеции – Russian Embassy in Sweden
