The St. Petersburg Philharmonic for Children and Youth, which opened in 1989, has its own symphony orchestra, drama troupe, soloists, concert performers and even its own puppet theater. With such powerful facilities, the theater has created an extensive repertoire, consisting of performances of various genres and musical concerts. The main audience of the Philharmonic Hall is children and teenagers, and most of the repertoire is designed for them. There are also evening shows for adults.

The Philharmonic Society regularly presents new cultural projects involving children and adolescents. One of these projects is the music and theater studio at the Philharmonic, which accepts students from 7 to 12 years old.

A whole series of 25 new projects is dedicated to the 25th anniversary of the Philharmonic. Among them are competitions for adults, the winners of which receive free tickets to cultural events and privileges when attending Philharmonic performances. The main prizes of the contests are worth fighting for, for example, free foreign language tuition or a tourist trip.

The main director of the Philharmonic is Yuri Tomoshevsky. By analogy with a man-orchestra, Yuri Valentinovich is called a man-theater: instead of musical instruments, he is a virtuoso master of a whole range of directing techniques. His name has become a kind of St. Petersburg brand. This director is able to stage the performance even on a bare spot, without props and scenery, and will turn out to be a work of art. In addition, in the performances of the Philharmonic, viewers can enjoy the highest acting skills of Yuri Valentinovich.

In general, the Children's and Youth Philharmonic is a unique theater, with its unique atmosphere, huge creative opportunities and corresponding to the spirit of the time.
