Sergey Krylov: Art does not tolerate any compromise!

Virtuoso violinist Sergej Krylov said he was wary of the dominance of Anglo-American culture in Russia. A famous violinist Sergei Krylov, who also chief conductor of the Lithuanian Chamber Orchestra, who lives in Italy, agreed to perform two concerts in one evening Sergei Prokofiev. It happened on 12 June at the Voronezh Philharmonic under the Second Platonic Arts Festival, taking place these days in Voronezh. Partners Krylov performed from Voronezh Academic Symphony Orchestra conducted by Vladimir Verbitsky and the Boys Choir of the Glinka Choral College (St. Petersburg) under Vasily Grachev. Before the concert, said Sergei Krylov journalists at the press center of the festival. Before the concert, said Sergei Krylov journalists - Sergei, if you do not hear often in Russia, you're not the first time in Voronezh, right? - The second time I have. When I was 10, I played for the first time in Voronezh with a symphony orchestra. And I still write in my biography that I am 10 years old the first time, the game. With a symphony orchestra It was at the Philharmonic, I remember the portrait on the wall of the Tchaikovsky and some orchestral musicians, who still remember. In my musical career Voronezh played a pretty big role. I still have a poster of the concert in Moscow. What today's program, two symphony concerts in one department - an unusual event. The public should be prepared accordingly. The first concert was written by a young Prokofiev, the second in more than adults. - She left Russia and moved with his parents to Italy in the early years. Was it easy to get used to on the basis of a different culture and find it? - It is difficult to answer unequivocally. I think that every man and the musician must learn to live together. Not so in Moscow, we were all bad, but in Italy well. Only in 1989, Russia had no medicine to wake my father. So we went to Italy. We went through some difficult moments. And I think I quickly acclimatized in Italy, to see that the country is very open and happy. I have many friends in Italy. As far as my professional life, I would say that Italy - is a country that has strong roots violin. We will not talk about Niccolo Paganini, Giuseppe Tartini, or other persons who have contributed to the world of Violin Playing. In Italy, there is no tradition of discipline implementation schools that were in Moscow. In the early years it was hard to understand some aspects of the Italian musical mentality, mainly instrumental. But then I used and knew how to work in a system with a concert by the European organization, which was totally different from the Russian. It took quite a while. The fate led us to Cremona, because my father was a violin maker, he studied in Cremona. By the way, I continue to play the violin father, I call it the "Stradivarius of the 20th century." - Virtuoso Yuri Bashmet than you think ... - Probably, the musicians partially music historian, because you can not just take the music of Schubert and Beethoven and play. Must be based on something, at least on the historical facts. - Sergei, do you think the role of advertising, PR and record companies in the promotion of classical music stars play? - I think that the music - it's a big word. And it should be to distinguish between light and classical music. Classical genre as he was and still is a very privileged area. It does not try to block the millions of people a week. I'm not talking about the people who listen to Beethoven's Fifth Symphony and "The Four Seasons" by Vivaldi. Classical - something very exclusive. Accordingly, they are two different things. Sting has sold 200 million, and we - 200,000 CDs, but these are more than 200 000 million. At the word the PR I immediately comes to mind is Lang Lang, the Chinese pianist class. In Berlin, while I was riding in a taxi, saw three cars with posters Lang Lang. "Adidas" sneakers makes "Lang Lang." We see Lang Lang in all stores, "Mont Blanc" world. Recently I met with the director of a private school pianists in Beijing, there are trained, how much do you people think? 23,000 pianist employs 800 teachers ... In Lang Lang, perhaps there are other top-class pianist who could have a career, but of which no one knows. PR is important. But in any case impossible to promote mediocrity, because you have to do a tour, and come with the public is where the dog is buried. - Will come in the halls of fewer students with grades, more students can zapudrit brain, or those who treat the quiet false notes. Classical musicians even agree to play in the field of show business. For example, Hvorostovsky performs concerts of songs. Where is the privilege and exclusivity? - There are many answers. Career artists develop unique. Public success can be achieved in different ways. Pianist Grigory Sokolov, a few years ago was the contract with the "German Gramafon." And - now Grigory Sokolov Moscow invite impossible. In this case it is showing a lot, he does not run for plates. His concerts in my life, quite a few of the amazing experiences, and I think it's an art form. And true art does not tolerate compromise. How love and happiness can not compromise. - Sverdlovsk Oblast Philharmonic broadcasts concerts all over the Internet. Designed this course in other countries? - The Berlin Philharmonic does. The faster they grow, the better. And it is important to involve young people in classical music and art, and not just for video games, not only to the Anglo-American culture. I go through how deeply seated in Russia Anglo-American culture. Perhaps the Russian people that they do not understand ... - Sergei, she played together with Mstislav Rostropovich. What had he learned? - It was about five years, and we played together in Zurich, Parma, Madrid, Baku. I learned music. I was lucky that he's mine in Cremona and was invited. I envy my colleagues who have worked with him for many years. All the people who worked with him, when they get together - always starts a conversation about Slava Rostropovich. There is always something to remember. Now he is often visited us in moments of creativity. - You said that you want to ride an airplane. How often can not control this type of transportation? - It is not often, because to fly a plane to - it's like playing the violin. It is necessary to cultivate and otherwise better not. - How all the time? - Very little time. I live in hotels and airplanes. - There are things that have fallen in Russia today? - To an enthusiastic audience, it is the enthusiasm. At my concerts in Russia is always a full house. - How do you differentiate prepared applause from the audience? - It's not even in applause. Case in silence. - You were born into a musical family. As a kid, maybe it was not a question be? - I do not even think in the situation. I do not hide it. I had no choice. But I have no regrets. Ivan Tolstoy, "News Showbiz NEWSmusic.ru» photos
