Selfies with a maestro for memoryPhoto: Lia Degtyareva "Music Lesson", in which a charity concert was held, was held at the Tsaritsyn Opera Theater. Children from music schools of Volgograd took part in it. To get to the master class with Dmitry Malikov and play with him at the concert, the participants passed a serious selection. The jury chose the choir of the children's theater "Gardens C-Mi-Re-Mi-Do" of the children's music school № 5 of Volgograd; a trio of students from the Central School of Arts VGIIK piano duet of students of the Volgograd Conservatory named after PA Serebryakova Nikita Melikhova and Anna Likhotnikova; students of the children's music school number 13 Ruslan Khokhlachev and music school number 2 Nikolai Zemlyansky. The main idea of the project, according to Dmitry Malikov, is the transfer of knowledge from the master to future stars. Before the concert, each participant had the cherished 10 minutes with the maestro. - Nikita and I played with Dmitry Malikov in six hands the famous “Flight of the Bumblebee” by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, - the young pianist Anna Lihotnikova shared with Woman’s day. - On the stage with Dmitry was very comfortable, still can not believe that we had such a chance.1/2Dmitry Malikov with pleasuretook pictures with his studentsPhoto: Liya DegtyarevaFragment of a charity concertPhoto: Liya DegtyarevaDuring the concert, Dmitry Malikov gave advice on how to motivate children to study music:– It is important to send children to study music, because music changes and develops people.– Don’t let children be lazy. Make them play the instrument a little every day. When my father went on tour, he put his belt on the piano so that I would remember the punishment for disobedience. I would throw this belt off the piano and not try to practice much. When he returned home, dad had already forgotten about everything. Going on the next tour, he again left the belt, in the same place. I threw it off again. Everything was revealed only when dad had nothing to belt his trousers with.– Pay attention to the approach to teaching children, the teacher to whom you send your child. He should be a rather diplomatic person, tactful, so as not to discourage the child from studying music. - Give children the opportunity to choose the musical direction in which they will develop. They should like what they do. - While children are very small, turn on beautiful compositions at home, so that music becomes a pleasant home background. - Take the child to concerts and music master classes, so that musicians can amaze him with their skill. There was one such concert in my life in 1986. I was 16 years old then. The outstanding pianist Vladimir Horowitz came to Moscow. I managed to get to the rehearsal and the concert. After that, I looked at what I was doing in a completely different way.
