The building is located in the historical territory of the Church of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul, which is on Yakimanskaya st. beyond the Moskva River. The church territory occupied the western part of the modern 423rd quarter.
In the second half of the 18th century. Along the northern border of the property, small plots of land are being isolated for lease.
In 1806, along the western border of one of the leased sites, on the site of the former parish school was built a stone, two-story with a residential semi-basement and a mezzanine, a folk school. The writer P. A. Buryshkin (author of the book "Moscow Merchant") and poet V. Lebedev-Kumach studied there.
Judging by a photograph from Naydenov's Album of 1886, the development of the western border of the property was a continuous front along the red line of the street. The stone tent at that time retained the features of late Moscow classicism, behind it was visible the volume of the refectory and the church, then the bell tower, behind which was the wooden building of the almshouse and then the building of the public school.

At the beginning of the XX century. The Moscow educational district decided to erect a new stone building of the 2nd Moscow City State School, the project of which was completed in 1901-1902. architect A. Nikiforov.

Bolshaya Yakimanka and Maly Petropavlovsky (modern 2nd Khvostov) lane. The "L" -shaped volume in the plan was placed along the borders of the courtyard, the main facades - along the regulated red lines of the street and lane to the entire front of the site. The entrance to the courtyard, the space of which was limited on the western and northern sides by the wings of the new building, and on the side of the church property - a stone fence, was provided through the passage arch from the side of Bolshaya Yakimanka. Basements were arranged under part of the courtyard.

Probably, the new building included fragments of the walls of the basement and the first floor of the earlier buildings.

The site configuration determined the initial layout of the building. Three types of premises prevailed in it - classrooms connected according to the enfilade principle; rooms for teachers and utility rooms; an assembly hall that occupies the entire third floor. The original planning structure was partially changed during major repairs carried out during the Soviet era. The third floor has retained its function. The basement under the courtyard, used for economic purposes, has also been preserved.

In 1988, the planning structure on the first, second and fourth floors was built according to the corridor principle. Training rooms are located on both sides. There is a wardrobe in the basement. On the first and second floors, the cornices have been preserved, as well as the original flights of stairs and railings.

Initially, this building housed the Second Moscow City State School. The music school was located here in 1937. During the war years, training was suspended, but in 1944, classes began to be held within the walls of this building. Among the teachers of the specialized institution were such famous personalitiesHow: taught by artists of the orchestra of the Bolshoi Theater of the USSR, for example, the trumpet player Ivan Vasilevsky and the flutist Vladimir Tsybin. At various times, they also studied here: conductors Viktor Eliseev and Valery Khalilov, composers Mikhail Bronner and Sergei Dmitriev, singers Vyacheslav Dobrynin and Mikhail Shufutinsky.

According to Alexei Yemelyanov, today the school building is under reconstruction. One of the stairs has been almost completely preserved to this day. The facades of the music school are hidden under the grid, but their structure and decor have been preserved and will be put in order.

Earlier, the city authorities recognized the St. Olga Children's Hospital as an architectural heritage site ().

The school was founded in 1933 in accordance with the resolution of the Presidium of the District Council of 20.09.1933 and on the basis of the Order of the Financial Department of Public Education of the Leninsky District of Moscow.

The founder is the Moscow Department of Culture.

The beginning was laid in 1933 with the energy and will of Maria Mikhailovna Kovaleva, the first director of the school. A wonderful person, a teacher, she was able to attract the best musicians who, together, proved the viability of good undertakings in the musical education of children.

Artists of the USSR Bolshoi Theater Orchestra came to work here: the trumpeter Ivan Antonovich Vasilevsky and the flutist Vladimir Nikolaevich Tsybin (professor of the Moscow Conservatory in 1923-1949).

From the first days of its existence, Roman Efimovich Sapozhnikov worked at the school - then still a graduate student of the Moscow Conservatory, and later - a teacher who created a harmonious system of training for a novice cellist - "School of cello playing", many collections, anthologies of the school repertoire. The creation of a creative atmosphere and high professionalism at the school was greatly influenced by outstanding musicians, professors of the Moscow Conservatory - pianist Genrikh Gustavovich Neigauz and violinist Abram Ilyich Yampolsky, who worked with us as consultants.

Outstanding musicians began their pedagogical career at our school: the Turkins sisters - Galina Andreevna and Yulia Andreevna, People's Artist of Russia organist Harry Yakovlevich Grodberg, Evgeny Mikhailovich Timakin (one of the teachers of Mikhail Pletnev), pianist Lidia Izrailevna Fikhtengolts.

In 1945, Olga Aleksandrovna Apraksina came to work at the school, while working at the Moscow City Music School and the Academy of Pedagogical Sciences. Later she became a doctor of pedagogical sciences, deputy director of the Institute of Art Education of the Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of the RSFSR, the author of several books and manuals on Russian musical pedagogy.

Samuil Borisovich Oxer - the author and co-author (together with V.N. Vladimirov) of textbooks on musical literature for music schools, which taught more than one generation of future musicians, worked at our school in the 40s. He was also the author of the first program on musical literature compiled in our country.

The first years the school, which did not have its own premises, huddled in one of the classes of the general education school in Zamoskvorechye. The teachers were true enthusiasts, in difficult conditions they taught regularly. A well-defined timetable allowed for lessons in piano, various orchestral specialties, theoretical disciplines, choir and ensembles.

For many years, the school coexisted in the same building with the conductor-choral department of the music and pedagogical school named after I. October revolution. Many teachers combined teaching at school and at a college: E.K. Kotova, I.M. Samoilovich, A.V. Mirer, L.I. Fikhtengolts, T.S. Bessmertnova and others. These people gave our school their talent, love of music, multiplied by work and high professionalism. The next generation of teachers, many of whom are former graduates, strengthen and develop the established traditions.

During the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945) the school was closed for some time, but already in 1944 it accepted the first students who returned from evacuation. At that difficult time, the educational process began thanks to the first manager of the school, Praskovya Mikhailovna Demina, who kept musical instruments, school equipment, the building itself.

Since 1937, the school has never left the house in which it is now. But the name and "registration" changed more than once. At first it was called Children's Music School No. 1 of the Leninsky District of Moscow. Since 1960 it has become a children's music school number 7 of the Kirovsky, then the Oktyabrsky district. Finally, since 1993, the school began to bear the name of Reingold Moritsevich Glier. Yakimanka Street, on which the school is located, was called Georgiy Dimitrov Street for a long time.

Pages of the musical life of different years are reflected on the stands of the School History Museum, created for the 70th anniversary. A large fund of concert programs, posters, congratulatory addresses, souvenirs, newspaper notes has accumulated. All these are exhibits of the museum, which are its adornment. Over the years, the number of materials has increased: the stands no longer have room for their placement, and albums have appeared, which reflect the history of the development of all departments existing at the school.

In 1982, a museum class was opened dedicated to the work of R.M. Glier.

For 80 years, thousands of students have received musical education at the school. Glier School graduates become more than just music lovers. Among them are famous people who make up the support and pride of Russia's musical culture: conductors Viktor Eliseev and Valery Khalilov, composers Mikhail Bronner and Sergei Dmitriev, popular singers Vyacheslav Dobrynin and Mikhail Shufutinsky, artists Elena Solovey and Pavel Smeyan, TV presenters, journalists, and teachers.

All its directors made a great contribution to the development of the school, starting from the first director, Maria Mikhailovna Kovaleva.
For 40 years the school was run by a school graduate (graduated in 1941), honored worker of culture Russian Federation, Shegal Alexander Abramovich.
For 15 years the school was also led by its graduate (graduated in 1970), an honorary worker of culture of the city of Moscow, Olga Petrovna Alekseeva.
