Where is the Richter memorial apartment located? Creative life in the museum-apartment of S. T. Richter

Concert of Reuben Ostrovsky on S. Richter's birthday

The memorial apartment is one of the special places in Moscow that I want and want to talk about.

Last year on the portal, today we are talking with Yulia Isaakovna De-Klerk - head of the Department of Musical Culture of the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts - about the events that have been taking place in recent years in this extremely hospitable, warm and LIVING house. I omit my questions; the story is told on behalf of Yulia Isaakovna.

I joined the work of the Memorial Apartment of Svyatoslav Teofilovich Richter in March 2015. The season in our museum differs from the generally accepted concert season: we live in calendar years from January to December. And in 2015, when the centenary of the great pianist was celebrated, we held concerts, the program of which included works exclusively from the maestro’s repertoire. Elizaveta Leonskaya came to us specially, and graduate students also played within these walls: and Alexey Kudryashov (Alexey is a regular participant in our programs).

In addition to wonderful concerts, this year will be remembered for three large exhibitions:

– a widely publicized exhibition dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the birth of the maestro “Svyatoslav Richter. From the first person,” which took place in the Department of Personal Collections of the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts. The exhibition featured more than sixty works of painting and graphics, rare photographs, sheet music, posters, and never-before-published archival documents. This exhibition primarily introduced the public to the artistic interests of Svyatoslav Richter, which, like his talents, were extremely diverse. As the pianist himself said: “Music is the most important thing in my life, but it is still not my whole life; I’m an omnivorous creature... and not because I’m scattered, I just love a lot.”

– Exhibition “Svyatoslav Richter. Ars Ludus”, timed to coincide with the XV Tchaikovsky Competition, was opened at the Moscow Conservatory, where it aroused great interest.

– 2015 ended with the exhibition “Portraits in the Interior”, held within the walls of the Memorial Apartment. A wonderful intimate exhibition was created, which featured portraits of Richter created by his contemporaries - artists of different generations: Robert Falk, Anna Troyanovskaya, Vasily Shukhaev, Jan Levinstein, Alexander Labas, Artem Tambiev, Vladimir Ilyushchenko and many others.

2016 was, naturally, dedicated to the anniversaries of two great composers - and, whose names are inextricably linked with the creative biography of Svyatoslav Richter. Our concert programs presented not only the most striking and significant works of Prokofiev and Shostakovich, but a wide range of stylistic and genre parallels from ancient music to the works of our contemporaries. The public was presented with the music of their teachers and students, Russian and foreign authors - almost all the most important composers of the 20th century.

We are rightfully proud of the absolutely stunning exhibition dedicated to the 110th anniversary of the birth of D. D. Shostakovich “Dmitry Shostakovich - Svyatoslav Richter. Variations on the theme of the era”, which ended last year. The composer visited the apartment of Svyatoslav Teofilovich and Nina Lvovna more than once, which made it possible to highlight several thematic sections and storylines in the exhibition. The exhibits were brought from various museums - including Irina Antonovna Shostakovich, breaking all her taboos, providing the rarest materials for the exhibition: manuscripts, photographs, a book of Jewish poetry with notes by D. Shostakovich.

Opening of the exhibition “Dmitry Shostakovich – Svyatoslav Richter. Variations on the theme of the era"

Both exhibitions and concerts arouse ever-growing interest from spectators in the events of the Memorial Apartment. There was a real explosion of spectator activity in our museum. Previously, 4-5 concerts a year took place within these walls. In 2015, the number of our visitors was 1,500, in 2016 – 3,500, and in the first quarter of 2017 alone, the figure was already close to a small record: 1,700-1,800 people.

It is very important to say that almost all concert programs in 2016 consisted largely of works by composers of the 20th century. At the same time, the maestro himself did not always play works by composers of his generation, but he knew EVERYTHING. Svyatoslav Teofilovich's interest in the work of his contemporaries was extremely high: he listened a lot and collected records. We keep signal copies with dedicatory inscriptions.

Still, we took a lot of risks. When music or music is announced, it is not difficult to gather 50 people (which is exactly how many spectators our hall can accommodate). But if you offer essays, or A. Lokshina, this is a completely different question. We wrote a lot of press releases, gave announcements on various Internet portals, carried out numerous mailings, and now we can safely say that the public fully appreciated this project. A lot of young people come, we have regular spectators. Viewers appreciate that here they can hear non-trivial programs in very interesting performances, which is extremely valuable.

And you know, the ice has broken not only in terms of spectator activity. If previously we invited new performers and did not always receive positive responses, now very interesting musicians call the museum and ask us to consider the possibility of their participation in our projects. I can just name the star cast: Elizaveta Leonskaya, Reuben Ostrovsky, Yana Ivanilova, Petr Laul, Sergey Kuznetsov, Lyudmila Berlinskaya and Arthur Ansel, and Alexey Kudryashov, Sergey Poltavsky and Evgeny Rumyantsev, Mikhail Dubov and Mona Haba, Anastasia Petrunina - these performers are no longer once they gave wonderful concerts in the Richter Memorial Apartment. Our frequent guests are soloists of the ensemble “Studio of New Music” and “Moscow Ensemble of Contemporary Music” (MASM), “Rusquartet”, singers Svetlana Sumacheva, Ekaterina Kichigina, Olga Grechko, Maria Makeeva, as well as other musicians who have won international recognition, laureates of prestigious competitions and festivals.

Anastasia Petrunina, Evgeny Rumyantsev and Nikita Mndoyants

Personally, together with the musicians, I pay great attention to the selection of repertoire and compilation of programs. It is curious that many pianists prefer ensemble performances to solo programs, but Svyatoslav Teofilovich himself devoted a lot of time to chamber performance.

It is these circumstances that inspire us to create truly non-standard programs. Thus, one of our last concerts, on June 7, was dedicated to the music of the French composers of the famous “Six” and was simply brilliant, with a full house! I would like to say a huge thank you to all the musicians who approach projects in the S. Richter Memorial Apartment with such dedication and responsibility, teach new compositions on purpose, and rehearse for a long time. I take off my hat and bow deeply to them.

We united all the concerts of 2017-2018 under the general title “Years of Wanderings” and dedicated them to Svyatoslav Teofilovich’s travels around the world. At the same time, it must be said that we are attracted not just by the geographical points where the maestro gave concerts, but by Richter’s metaphysical wanderings. From every part of the world, he sent postcards to close friends in which he shared his enthusiastic impressions. Richter was interested in literally everything: architecture, plastic and fine arts. He made a special trip to Avignon for the Pablo Picasso exhibition, and was later invited to the artist’s 80th birthday in Nice. It’s not for nothing that we have two works by Pablo Picasso in our apartment, which he gave to S.T. Richter: “Dove” and “Horseman and Bull”.

2017 is entirely dedicated to France and Italy - countries that Richter especially loved, calling them his “spiritual homeland.” The next year, 2018, will introduce us to Richter’s travels around England and America, and, of course, the central figure of this cycle will be Benjamin Britten, with whom Richter had very warm, friendly relations. 2019 will most likely be dedicated to Austria and Germany. I don’t want to talk about the planned programs in advance; I hope we will adequately implement our plans.

Another generous gift that Svyatoslav Teofilovich gave to all of us is the presence of music in the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts. Most museums have musical accompaniment, but in ours music is part of a single concept, an equal component of the entire life of the museum. I’m not just talking about the world-famous “December Evenings,” which have been taking place within the museum’s walls since 1981, and have long become one of its symbols. Since March last year, the “Musical Exhibitions” project has been resumed in the Italian Courtyard - a series of concerts and lectures dedicated to the iconic opening days of the season. The main goal of this project is to maximize the cultural and historical context of the exhibitions, accompanying them with a series of musical journeys. The concerts are attended by laureates of international competitions, leading soloists of opera houses, famous musical groups and conductors. During this time, we managed to prepare concerts and lectures for wonderful exhibitions: “Caravaggio and Followers”, “The Cranach Family. From Renaissance to Mannerism”, “The Crazy Years of Montparnasse”, “Caprichos”. Goya and Dali", "Giorgio Morandi. 1890-1964", "Venice of the Renaissance. Titian, Tintoretto, Veronese. From the collection of Italy and Russia,” etc.

And in the fall of 2017, two more interesting concerts await us: October 19 – concert-lecture “Left March” as part of the exhibition “Tsai Guoqiang. October”, dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the October Revolution. Its program will include works by I. Schillinger, S. Prokofiev, A. Lurie, A. Davidenko. Including the premiere of the opera “Aelita, or the Revolution on Mars” by contemporary composer Iraida Yusupova. Performers are soloists of the MASM ensemble, the Eidos choir, Lydia Kavina (theremin) and many others. And on November 23, a concert “Musical Expressionism: pro mundo – pro domo” will take place as part of the exhibition “Drawings by Klimt and Schiele from the collection of the Albertina Museum, Vienna.” Performers: Questa Musica ensemble. Artistic director and conductor – Philip Chizhevsky.

In the Memorial Apartment we will open the season after the summer holidays on September 14 with another meeting with the wonderful musician, pianist, professor at the Tchaikovsky Moscow State Conservatory, candidate of art history Reuben Ostrovsky. In 2017, a new project began in the “tower” on Bolshaya Bronnaya - a series of lectures “Legends of Performing Arts”, conducted by Reuben Ostrovsky. The third meeting, September 14 (Thursday), will be dedicated to Sergei Rachmaninoff. And we invite all lovers of piano music, as well as those who are interested in the great pianists of the past and present - their fates, rare recordings of concerts, paradoxical judgments about music and musicians. At each meeting, Reuben Ostrovsky not only initiates listeners into the secrets of the craft, but also introduces him to musical recordings from S. T. Richter’s personal collection.

On October 8, the premiere of a musical performance specially created for the Memorial Apartment will take place: “The Three Ages of Casanova” based on the plays of Marina Tsvetaeva (performers: actors of the Moscow Theater-Studio “Tabakerka”, Elena Tarasova (piano) and an ensemble of soloists, director - Alexander Limin, composer - Alexey Kurbatov). And on November 1, we are opening the exhibition “The Years of Wanderings of Svyatoslav Richter: France-Italy”, where visitors will be able to see works by P. Picasso, R. Guttuso, F. Leger, A. Calder, as well as letters, photographs, sheet music and records from the archive Svyatoslav Richter.

I can’t tell you in detail about all the events, but I promise there will be a lot of interesting things! Keep an eye on the schedule – recently the museum’s website has launched online sales of tickets for our concerts. As you can see, the S.T. Richter Memorial Apartment lives life to the fullest. The professionals who work here are passionate, active, well aware of the significant and rich heritage they have inherited, and we all do our best to ensure that interest in the work of this wonderful musician only increases.

In 1999, a new branch of the Museum-Apartment of S. T. Richter opened at the Museum of Fine Arts. Svyatoslav Richter played his first concert at the Pushkin Museum in 1949, he played two Beethoven sonatas. A close friendship began between S. Richter and the director of the Pushkin Museum I. Antonova, which opened up new points of contact between music and fine art.

The museum-apartment of S. Richter is located on Bolshaya Bronnaya Street. From the 16th floor there is an excellent view of the old buildings of the center of Moscow. When you hear the word museum, images of an ancient estate with columns appear. Richter's apartment museum is located in a typical brick house, but when you enter it, you are immersed in a special atmosphere. Inside the apartment, everything is equipped for business - a piano for rehearsals, cabinets for music, a relaxation room. Next to the piano on a stand there was usually a reproduction that was associated with the piece being rehearsed: Delacroix when he played Chopin, Goya and Schille - Schumann, Bruegel - Brahms, Malevich - Scriabin.

Richter did not teach, but rehearsed a lot with young artists, for many of them these rehearsals became “Universities”.

Even though Richter was not a collector, his house is decorated with paintings. He was well versed in art, and sometimes organized exhibitions of young artists at his home.

In 1978, the Pushkin Museum hosted the exhibition “The Musician and His Encounters in Art,” which presented portraits of people whom Richter knew and loved. The musician acted as a director of the catalogue, and here his literary talent showed itself. This is how he described Picasso: “I will never forget this man with eyes as hot as coal; he was over eighty, and he was the youngest of all. He ran up the stairs like a boy, showing off his rooms, in which there was divine disorder, and admired the pattern of the curling "In the hay of the plant. From this visit I have a portrait of Frederic Joliot-Curie, a drawing by a brilliantly precise pen of an unwavering hand."

S. Richter himself was fond of art. Friendship with the artist A. Troyanovskaya grew into Richter’s passion for pastel. The master’s collection includes works by Russian artists - V. Shukhaev, P. Konchalovsky, N. Goncharova, A. Fonvizin, and foreign ones - H. Hartung, A. Calder, H. Miro, P. Picasso. Most of his collection was bequeathed to the Pushkin Museum, the paintings are now in the Museum of Personal Collections, the exhibition in the Richter memorial apartment is changing. His own pastels are displayed in one of the rooms. Falk noted in Richter's pastels "The amazing sensation of light." A. Troyanovskaya said that Richter worked only from impression and memory. The works “Street in Beijing”, “Twilight in Skaterny Lane”, “Yerevan”, “Moscow” are presented here.

The museum has the room of Nina Dorliak, the singer and wife of the musician. In 1945, they performed together for the first time at S. Prokofiev’s author’s evening. At this time, the union of Dorliak and Richter began on stage and in life. Soon Nina Lvovna devoted herself to her family and teaching at the Conservatory, but for Richter his wife remained his most important friend and judge. Richter and music are inseparable, this was the case when he was alive, music is now the main component of the museum. When can you come, ask the head of the museum. The most likely answer is, come when they are rehearsing the performance. Getting to know the museum while listening to live music is a rarity for other museums, but for the Richter Museum this is rather the rule. The museum hosts concerts and musical evenings. The festival "December Evenings" is an authoritative phenomenon in the musical and cultural life of the country (N. Tregub)

12th of February at a press conference in the Svyatoslav Richter Memorial Apartment of the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts. A.S. Pushkin presented the music program for 2018.

The memorial apartment of Svyatoslav Richter continues the musical and exhibition cycle “The Years of Wanderings of Svyatoslav Richter”, this time dedicated to England and America.

The concerts will be attended by famous performers, “stars” of different generations - Alexander Gindin, and Yuri Martynov, Lyudmila Berlinskaya and Yuri Polubelov, Pyotr Laul and Sergey Kuznetsov, Nikita Mndoyants and Alexey Kurbatov, Alexander Ramm and Evgeny Rumyantsev, Sergey Poltavsky and Daria Filippenko, Alisa Gitsba and Marina Karpechenko, Svetlana Sumacheva and Maria Ostroukhova, Olga Grechko and Dmitry Khromov, guests from foreign countries Arthur Ansel, Hannah Marty and Jack Dzhekovich, ancient and modern music ensembles “NeoBarocco”, “Canto Vivo”, “Rusquartet”, “ Studio of New Music" and other wonderful musicians.

In addition to lectures and concerts, within the framework of the “Literary and Musical Lounge” there will be a performance “Halloween”, or “An Extraordinary Concert”, and the family subscription “Word. Music. A game".

In October 2018, the Svyatoslav Richter Memorial Apartment will open exhibition “Years of wanderings of Svyatoslav Richter. England - America" ​​- based on the funds of the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts. A.S. Pushkin, other domestic museums, as well as the B. Britten archive in Aldborough (Great Britain).

The exhibition will feature rare archival materials from the collections of Richter and Britten: postcards and letters, posters and concert programs, photographs, sheet music and autographed records, memorial items, portraits and engravings, sketches of scenery and costumes, paintings and graphic works with views of cities and monuments of England and America, captured by artists from different countries.

In addition, the Department of Musical Culture of the Pushkin Museum. A.S. Pushkin is preparing projects for landmark exhibitions in 2018.

Deputy Director for Scientific Work of the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts. A.S. Pushkina Irina Bakanova:“Department of Musical Culture of the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts. A.S. Pushkin is a special department. The name of Svyatoslav Richter, with whom he is associated, is dear not only to our museum, but also to the public that has formed around him over many decades. This year we have an extensive program ahead of us. These will be not only concerts, but also lectures and master classes. The musicians taking part in the events not only understand Richter’s value as a performer, but also combine their talent with the ability to work with archival materials - together with our colleagues they study the funds and specially learn the works. Thanks to this, the museum has the opportunity to present rare, exclusive programs.”

Svyatoslav Richter and his wife Nina Dorliak moved into an apartment on Bolshaya Bronnaya in the early seventies. It is located in a typical sixteen-story building built in the 70s. He lived in the apartment for about thirty years, until his death; its walls witnessed the active creative life of a married couple. In the main room - the “hall”, as the room was called in the old fashioned way, there are two “Steinway a sons” pianos - the maestro played music on them; Here I communicated with colleagues and friends, listened to operas and watched my favorite films. Another grand piano is installed in Nina Dorliak’s room.

The owner called his office “the closet” - because of the abundance of cabinets there. They contained books, music cassettes, records, and sheet music with notes from Svyatoslav Teofilovich. In a prominent place is a carved wooden figure of the Infant John the Baptist. She reminded Richter of the Touraine musical festivals (France), which he organized. The walls are decorated with a profile of B. Pasternak - a plaster counter-relief from a tombstone (architect Sarah Lebedeva) in Peredelkino and a painting by Saryan - a gift from E.S. Bulgakova. Gifts from friends are kept on the desk - a handwritten version of the “Ninth Sonata” with a dedication to Richter, signed by S. Prokofiev; , “Little Girls” by Solzhenitsyn, a photograph by G. Neuhaus and a sketch by Picasso - the composer communicated with the best representatives of Russian culture.

In the famous “green room” (a room for relaxation, during concerts it became artistic) on the wall hangs a portrait of the musician’s father, Teofil Danilovich. The composer's family history is tragic. His father, a German by birth, who graduated from the Conservatory in Vienna, lived with the artist’s mother in Odessa, where the Great Patriotic War found them. During Hitler's attack on the city, he was arrested and shot as a “German spy.” After the war, Anna Pavlovna - Svyatoslav's mother - emigrated to Germany.
