Maestro wants the repertoire of the Mariinsky Theatre to expand thousands of performances a year. As part of the 27th Moscow Easter Festival April in Voronezh made by Valery Gergiev. Together with the Mariinsky Theatre Symphony Orchestra Conductor gave a concert in the Voronezh Opera and Ballet. Guests performed Shostakovich's Leningrad Symphony and other works. Before the concert, Maestro spoke to reporters. Valery Gergiev - Last year, you said that you have a very busy schedule in the Easter Festival ... - That's right. We have a rich and heavy schedule. But every year the geography of our festival and broadcast Easter Festival has been going on around the world over the Internet. And it's not good. Now we have concerts Krasnodar, Kislovodsk, Rostov-on-Don, Volgograd, passed back to Moscow tomorrow. Of course we are all very tired. - Why chose to perform in Voronezh Leningrad Symphony? - Your city alive the memory of World War II, there are monuments of war heroes. I think that's important for your listeners. Leningrad Symphony sounds not so often. By the way, today we are with your children play from Voronezh Youth Orchestra. I think for them it is - a good momentum and a valuable opportunity to network with colleagues. - Valery Gergiev, if you are tired at work, as would prefer to relax? - The best holiday for us, musicians and artists, this new experience. A friend arranged for me in Naberezhnye Chelny with a sauna to take fresh air, swimming pool and lakes. I love the sauna and swimming pool. And in two hours I was fully recovered. Valery Gergiev and the Mariinsky Theatre Symphony Orchestra - In addition to tours, festivals and charity work that you have time to build the Mariinsky ... - Yes, we are now actively preparing for the opening of a new phase of the Mariinsky Theatre. In the future there will be three, the Mariinsky stage, the theater will be able to produce up to a thousand concerts a year, and then we can at 3-4 weeks after their performances on tour in the States. There is some agreement on this matter with Petrozavodsk, Astrakhan and Samara. I think this may be of interest to the public and Voronezh. About precocious careless of the question. Although, believe me, misfires can ever ... - Is the crisis does not affect the participation in the Mariinsky Theatre? - We often act in North America, Europe and around the world against. And everywhere, in spite of the crisis, it is very well go ticketing Mariinsky Theatre. - Tell me, Maestro, you have a strict teacher? - We do not ostentatious austerity. But during the show discipline is very important. And I would not be troubled in a pianissimo orchestral musician in his chair. This could break the magic show, this is unacceptable. Here I am strict. Ivan Tolstoy, "News Showbiz NEWSmusic.ru» photos
