Sverdlovsk Philharmonic Hall, Concert hall in Yekaterinburg, Russia.

Sverdlovsk Philharmonic Hall is a concert hall in central Yekaterinburg built in the Art Nouveau and neoclassical styles. The building has two performance spaces of different sizes, each used for a different type of musical event.

The building was put up in the early 20th century and went on to receive a major Soviet award for cultural contributions. Over the decades, it became the main concert venue for the Ural region.

Yekaterinburg hosted the first composer festivals on a philharmonic stage, devoted to Sofia Gubaidulina, Valentin Silvestrov, Avet Terteryan, Arvo Pärt and Giya Kancheli. The hall's organ, built by the German firm W. Sauer in 1973, has 57 registers and 4,120 pipes since its 2014 rebuild by Johannes Klais and August Laukhuff.

It is worth checking in advance which of the two halls is hosting the event you want to see, as they differ in size and feel. The building sits in the city center and is easy to reach on foot from most central areas.

The concert organ, built by the German firm W. Sauer and installed in 1973, was expanded in 2014 by Johannes Klais and August Laukhuff to 57 registers and 4,120 pipes. Its largest pipe is 6 metres long, while the smallest measures just 2 mm in diameter. A public campaign in 1997, "Save the Organ!", drew more than 700 individual donations for its restoration.
