The St. Petersburg State Academic Capella (Russian: Государственная академическая капелла Санкт-Петербурга) (also: Glinka State Academic Capella), is the oldest active Russian professional musical institution with a history dating back to 1479.[1] It is based in the city of Saint Petersburg. It has had various names over the years, including "St. Peterburg Court Chapel" (Russian: Императорская Придворная певческая капелла) and the "Glinka State Choir of St. Petersburg".
The exterior of the concert hall of the capella.
The institution currently consists of a choir, an orchestra, and has its own concert hall. It also had an educational music college at one point, which is currently independent of the Court Capella.[1]
In 2000, the Saint Petersburg State Academic Capella was awarded the Liliane Bettencourt Choral Singing Prize[2] in partnership with the Académie des beaux-arts. This award honours the Capella's quality musical output in keeping with Russia's choral tradition.[2]
