the meeting of a person with the lord is a sincere consciousness of his sins, which , like dust, covers our soul, and some become a stone wall that separates us from god. watch in spiritual and educational projects on the belarus 24 tv channel . we are setting off on an expedition through the corners of our country. pradchuvanne, uzdym, nathnennya, menavita. with such morsels, we open our magic fires loudly. we’re off to a new folklore-historical expedition. let's follow the history and myastsovye abrads. seemingly old people, not old god people, lest i forget to give them dishes. and there’s no way you can eat and jump on your own. oh, yes, yes, tsvetemak, varoveiko, soloveyko. and to the old traditions.

pass church of the transfiguration, a unique monument, this time already made in wood , has come to us. the 18th century

is of architectural, spiritual and historical value at the same time. the mere fact that the wooden church has survived to this day alive and unharmed already claims to be a miracle. the date of its creation is not truly known. definitely, the temple is ancient in its time i've seen a lot. lyudmila, tell us a little about the history of this temple. the spasopreobrazhensky church was built in... the 18th century, but there is information that suggests that already at the end of the 16th century, in 1598, there were first mentions of this temple, note the dome, paintings have been preserved on it to this day 18th century, here the 12 apostles are depicted on a blue background. the temple, built

in the borocco style, is striking; there is open dynamics, curved lines, splendor, a triumph of perspective and volume. and here there are some surviving icons, and from that time, or behold, which has miraculous properties. an ancient icon, look, of saint righteous anna, once upon a time this icon was even stolen at mytn. that is, it was returned back to our temple, but it turns out that this is a saved value, yes, yes, this is a rare icon, the holy righteous anna, and where it was carved, and you can see, you see, yes, you see, where it was carved, just like that it was carved , in the temple there is also a copy of the belinsky miraculous icon of the mother of god, which streamed myrrh, but that’s not about miracles for now... that’s all,

the church of the transfiguration is unique in that that it is two-tiered, the upper part is wooden, and the lower part is stone. lyudmila, as i understand it, fragments of the original walls were left on purpose, right? yes, this is an ancient brick that has survived to this day. there is a special atmosphere of warmth here, but it was, of course, not always so calm and beautiful during the great patriotic war. during the war, the lower part of the temple was used as a wine warehouse, but the doors of the church were not closed, all services were held in the upper temple. during the war there was a raid on the territory of smolyan, a shell hit the temple, uh-huh, was pierced, but did not explode. there were people in this temple, even an eyewitness came to us this year and told us that the little ones and their mother, they ran here from... the village of selets

to the smolyansky temple, they were hiding below, but well , everyone remained alive, thanks also to a miracle. there is nothing to add here, but the church, having managed to save many lives, then itself needed saving. the temple, the lower altar of the holy cross, was in a deplorable state. all this was restored by the hands of parishioners and father alexander. these columns were all done by hand by the parishioners. the kivot, look, pay attention, the kivod is also made. the birth of a forged salya, look how lovingly the grape leaves were made, the panic of the work was done by hand by father alexander, all this was assembled according to some details, painted,

this is how the stone temple was restored , as they say, by the whole world, but i couldn’t resist and went on a visit to one of the local craftswomen, whose hands are with... all the openwork decorations in the church of the transfiguration, lyudmila, i’m just delighted with what you do, it’s incredibly beautiful, different materials, shine, this soft plushness, and here i see that not only shawls, you also have vests, and what else do you do, well, i knit such a large lace, a napkin, that’s right, is this your hobby or main activity, how did you come to this in the first place?

i, of course, expected to see hooks there, but not in such quantities, to be honest, each hook is intended for each thread, and what do you need for this besides a hook, here is a hook and hands , here is a little bit, and you can teach me some of your special techniques , well you can try a little, i haven’t taught anyone to knit, well, let’s use some yellow ones, please, now, if lyudmila has never taught anyone to knit, then i ’ve never tried knitting before. this is definitely the real test for the master, we take the thread, and so we hold the hook like a pen, like a pen, yes, we take it like this, we bring the thread, we bring the hook under the thread, we turn it, nothing works,

nothing works, look, while mission is impossible, and i’m in the main role, but after only 2 hours. yes, that's the loop you succeeded in continuing the second one, and just like that, yes, we continue knitting, for example, we knitted seven, i’ll tell you, they calm me down, don’t calm me down, look, they knitted, for example, this they are called air loops, so, in general, if you suffer for a long time, something will work out, here, of course, you need perseverance and patience. patience and patience again, friends, well, that’s it, the process has begun, well, yes, it’s already working out well, well, in general, what i want to say is very good, next time i’ll come to you with my scarf, ok, mix it up, i could knit for hours, it’s so

interesting and exciting, but it’s time for me to move on. local residents carefully preserve their rich history and traditions, so an ethnographic museum appeared in the smolyansk secondary school, let’s quickly get acquainted and warm up. local school pride of smolyan and a place of attraction. of course, here , first of all, they teach and learn, but they also conduct.

well, this idea emerged from the head of belarusian language and literature, viktar alegavich, myazhevich , in the 90s, in the 90s, and he is increasingly collecting this idea ekspanata z suіkh vesak, a...

i'm very glad, you want to test your knowledge of belarusian life, then come to smolyany, excursions to schools are by appointment and completely free, and in the meantime i dropped in on a school lesson, elena vladimirovna, are you studying, tell us, we have music classes here in the piano class, at the smolyansk school. but we have the opportunity, the students, or rather, have the opportunity to receive a musical education,

and then, if they want to enroll, then they have there is already a general education school and a music school, it’s very convenient, i ’ll say so, school is over, general education subjects are put in a briefcase, they go downstairs, and the parents feel good, what are you learning now? we are currently working on a piece called a circus performance. can i take a look, and it’s four -handed, four-handed, here’s an ensemble, yes , by the way, i have a small one, about a professional musical background, so to speak, great, you have the opportunity, yes, great, listen, let’s shake old times, to say that it’s exciting is to say nothing, but it’s very interesting, i’m afraid.

while dmitry and i are playing enthusiastically, elena vladimirovna, as befits a teacher , guides the process. yes, it’s bright and festive, so i wanted to give it a little, a little character, yes, this is a church performance, perhaps the jugglers should come out, so dmitry, straighten your shoulders. now, it’s better, any creative team just needs time to work together. dmitry, thank you for your cooperation, it was a pleasure to work with you. elena, come on thank you for the opportunity to attend the work process and take part in it. but that’s not all, now there are a few laws of smolyansk hospitality. we

when you make an instrument, you can’t think about money, a person who makes musical instruments is what he is, in my opinion. this there must be a person who loves music very much, it is impossible without this, it must be a person, well, as they say, people have golden hands, it must be, and a person ready to devote his life to something for which it is important, let’s say, there is no some kind of promising job with a high salary, and who sets or perhaps some kind

of goal or idea comes to his mind, it spins and spins and he... step by step goes towards it, sometimes without understanding it, just a tool can most likely be made, but the tool that will be special is most likely it won’t work out, this is the line where craft production ends and art begins. i myself am a native penchanin, i was born in this city, my mother is russian from the city of kazma, my father is a native penchanin polyushok, how

it was, a little background when it began. war, my mother was 9 years old, they fell under occupation somewhere near vyazma, they were loaded into wagons and transported respectively towards the west and somewhere in the belarusian forests on the crossing between osha and minsk, at some substation, the partisans captured this train , they freed everyone, well, they didn’t just free them, they took them away, they took them with them, well... it so happened that together with the partisans, my grandmother and my mother ended up in minsk, my grandmother worked in an orphanage, well, my mother, naturally... was , so they ended up in this destroyed minsk, their whole life, in fact, began anew in belarus, and my father,

a native, penchan, pole, yes, and after m, he did not directly take part in hostilities, the territory was under occupation when my father was released. in forty -four he turned 17 years old, well, he was drafted into the army as a reserve , well, of course, in order to be sent you need to be somehow prepared, in other words, when they were brought there, the war, fortunately, had already ended, but since those who fought were sent home, for the most part, those who had just arrived, continued to serve, and after the end of the service , my father returned, graduated in pinsk, then went to medical school to enter minsk, medical institute, in fact, that ’s where they met my future mother,

both doctors studied together, so well later we came to pinsk here, so sometimes they ask me, do you feel like someone, russian, yes, belarusian, yes, well, when he says to me: in the passport, well, this is back when they gave the soviet one, which one to write down nationally, so what now having been born in pinsk with the surname okarevich, i will write that i am russian, well, belarusian as it is, by the way, then it didn’t really matter, to be honest, i don’t see much of a difference now, after all these long, long years, well, maybe it’s either the difficult time left its mark, well , we... parents are very, then, apparently, everything is so treated, only after the war it was very difficult to live, they took their work very seriously, but as my father said, this is not

just a job, it’s when you save a life, this is the most important indicator after yours, after applying your knowledge, whether a person is alive or not no, he worked as a surgeon... pirogov, even in his collection, i just don’t remember which medal is awarded to surgeons, there is even a golden alpel,

our tv channel every friday evening, an amazing adventure of foreigners in belarus, hello, hello, how name, and my name is olga, it’s very nice, the cook was preparing for the feast.

born in pinsk in 1963, i had an older brother, he was 5 years older than me, we lived near the railway station, well, in such an ordinary house, without amenities, i mean, well,

since my brother was older. his parents , as people, well, let’s say, cultured, decided to teach him music, well, to give him some kind of opportunity, they bought a piano, and my brother studied the piano there, for some time it began to work out very well, but my brother was 5 years older than me, when it was already time for me to teach him how to go to school there, well , first there is first grade, there is second grade, that ’s nothing, and then for me...

boron was kind of obvious there, he’s been playing there for a while, when i started going to music school there, not the first, second, somewhere in the third or fourth grade, it turned out that there was another additional subject, well, as a rule, it was either an ensemble of folk instruments, or a choir, or an orchestra of russian folk instruments instruments, i got into the russian folk orchestra tools.

institute, institute organization of agriculture, we wrote there during the performance who studied where, where the music school was, that is, they had all this data, they called us to the student club, it turned out that they also have an orchestra of russian folk instruments, at one time one of the leaders of our orchestra was a girl, a student at the conservatory, she studied alayka there, so she was the leader of our student orchestra, well, then we met, she became mine wife, that’s actually how i came to the bololaika, well, more thoroughly , my wives got married, my students and i, after the third year it was a legal instrument, that is, the blalayka prima was the work of a master from the moscow region, well, at that time - expensive, well,

like a concert instrument - on a personal level, from time to time it needed , let’s say, maintenance and some minor repairs, there was wear on the frets, let’s say, there was neck bending, and so on, that is... which any instrument or item that is located at work, necessary, we had to go to moscow , there, on the way back in the moscow region , to get to this particular master who made this balalaika, i asked, listen, what is this, really, no one does this here, here, is it really in minsk? no one does anything, no one does anything, no repairs, manufacturing, nothing at all.

the dor took it, why can’t i do it there, well, something like that, maybe something small and i can do it, we went a couple of times, looked there, and ended up in the workshop there to the master, looked, to me it seemed very mysterious, well, it was like footage from the film astradivari, that is, i felt something like this atmosphere, that is, something so mysterious, some kind of fabulousness, some kind of reality, i began to become interested... with this topic, well, i started looking, well, what books and magazines were i able to find, i read everything there, revised it, i found something like this, i found an article by kufer in the journal science and life, there was

such a cluster, the words of obabalayka, i read this article and understood it to me that you need to meet this man, he himself was an aircraft designer, was engaged... but he had something to do with it, that is, there was a bonus there for the team or i don’t know, but he also had this, such a hobby, he was a highly educated person, and somehow , step by step, he also came to this , but he approached it as a researcher; his friends and acquaintances simply knew what he loved. music, sometimes they repair musical instruments as a hobby, someone once brought him an ancient musical instrument, one of the first - masters, let's say, one of the first legendary masters of allaika, he

he disassembled this tool like a professional designer, drew everything, made sketches, studied what thicknesses , and thus about 15-20 tools from different masters passed through his hands, and he made each one like this... such a description, he was still working at the same time with the musicians , but asked their feedback, what is good about this instrument, what is bad about it, what could be completed here, that he had this feedback, so he created such a collective image, called him a muscovite, they appreciated him very highly and somehow thanks to all this this article appeared in the magazine science and life, word likes, i decided to meet with him, i found out his phone number there, went there to moscow, we sat there for a couple of days, he told me how it was, and finally, as a souvenir, he gave me his drawings, with his autograph , wished me good luck in this matter, from then on

i had a goal, so to speak, well, like a light at the end of the tunnel, where i had to go, and i began to collect, go to familiar masters, and some other violin makers... then do search. as i made this first instrument, i already gained experience repair, really, the first step was when i made my first instrument, my first goal was to simply make it, according to these drawings, well, of course, there were many difficulties along the way, i will accept my first balalaika, and specifically the balalaika made in 1992. that’s what it says on the tag inside it, since then somewhere around two hundred have passed through my hands, maybe for someone over 30 years old and not much.
