History

Soviet Music (Russian: Советская музыка, romanized: Sovetskaya muzika) was established in February 1933 by the Union of Soviet Composers and the Soviet Ministry of Culture. In the first year, the journal was a bimonthly publication 200 pages in length, but after that until World War II the journal was published once a month and was on average 110 pages long.[5]

In 1979, the circulation of the magazine was 21,000 copies. In Soviet times, the journal published articles devoted to the works of domestic and foreign composers, the problems of music science, the development of national and ethnic musical cultures, heritage and education, and questions of the performer skills. The journal also contained various discussion materials, reviews of the concerts and theater premieres, book and music editions, and a chronicle of Soviet and foreign musical life.

Dmitry Kabalevsky was editor-in-chief of Soviet Music from 1940 to 1946.

In 1992, the name of journal was changed to Music Academy with new publishers: the Union of Composers of Russia, the Russian Ministry of Culture, and Compozitor Publishing House.[6]
