National Philharmonic of Ukraine

The National Philharmonic of Ukraine, often referred to as Kyiv Philharmonic and National Philharmonic, is a complex of two adjacent concert halls in the Khreshchatyi Park in Kyiv, Ukraine. Formerly the Merchant's House, the building's use for musical performances is associated with the Philharmonic Society, established by Mykola Lysenko.

The historic building was built at the end of the 19th century. Standing at the end of Khreshchatyk street near the European Square, it has hosted numerous Russian composers such as Sergei Rachmaninoff, Alexander Scriabin, and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and famous opera singers like Leonid Sobinov and Feodor Chaliapin.
