The repertoire of the St Petersburg Chamber Opera is special; gems from various countries and eras are brought to the stage, taking into account the size of the troupe. Over the years, the chamber theatre grew into the St Petersburg Chamber Opera \u2013 a professional state theatre that is renowned both in Russia and elsewhere in the world. <\/p>\n
