yuri nikolayevich what inspires you besides music? life love and dream is the most important thing of every person's dream. the future, but the lives that are available to a creative person. most importantly, we are

his guests all his life accompanied by music, it seems he had no other choice. how to devote yourself to his majesty the muse and music. today my guest is honored artist , artistic director of the belarusian state philharmonic yuri geldyuk, yuri nikolayevich good morning. kind. you were born in a musical family, your dad is a violinist director music school. mom is also a music teacher. it’s the desire of your parents to study music. or yours, too, first, of course, your parents, because they apparently conceived this fact of my future fate before i myself realized that i love this music, but it sounded in the family, but i really played on a violin. uh, after the war he came to

minsk, he was sent to work in grodno for about 30 years. he was the director of one of the most, in my opinion, the best music schools in belarus at that time, and now this school named after yuri vladimirovich seminyaki, by the way, is a great friend of the pope. because in the family we had, uh, wonderful traditions, since dad was a musician. he was also a good arranger , writing notes, all the time helping local composers. and my mother also taught music. yes , she was a primary school teacher. and when i went to school in 1959. it was a long time ago. it was the school forty-fifth zheleznodorozhnaya on dzerzhinsky's street. grodno where we lived and far away, then she became the tenth high school. mom was there alone time. in my teacher, i remember how

difficult it was to learn from my mother, because the responsibility was huge, but she taught me how to write quite beautifully. to study competently, and in general, i graduated from the school of the seventh grade of the grodno school. in general, i did not have fours. i had all great. well, maybe it helped the music school to some extent, your brother victor and sister lyudmila also connected their lives with music. unfortunately, my brother passed away. yes, last year. here's a sister too works hmm the moscow music school named after grechaninov is still taught works, and in childhood there was no competition between you. who plays better, who is more often praised, these were family concerts. so, when guests came, dad always loved, well, they didn’t really love,

and dad, he says, we’ll play together there, sometimes we played a paperclip together, here are his students and his friends. eh, our guests of our house have always had quite a lot of good music, by the way, your parents helped you in your musical studies. sometimes yes well anyway case, of course, followed the success and heard that we are the most important thing, so that we already understand, when mom at home could not be so carefully dealt with. here you could read a book, and at this time something to play. here or read. the three musketeers was also like this, but under dad hmm, it was impossible for your parents to scold you as a child for bad grades in a music school, if there were such in a social school, i didn’t have bad ones. i never thought so

at a music school. we have already realized that we will be all in this profession. yes, that is we we already knew what was ahead of us, we had to study. only i know that when you were 14 years old, you decided to move to minsk in order to study at a music school, at the conservatory it was difficult to start life on your own at that age. i don't. i'm lucky. the fact is that i had a wonderful teacher in grodno who said, and yura, you need to study in leningradskaya for 11 years. and where they studied, great musicians. let's go there and see. i was waiting for exams at the age of 11 in leningradskaya, and in general, it turned out like this, that they could take me, the women said far away. i should know that somewhere nearby you didn’t take

me to minsk germana to one svetka at the conservatory and i gave exams for the second time, and then i said, but where will he live? well , here we have here, far across the road through the international one, and there is our boarding school. in which our children live, who came from others. cities and i saw bunk beds. yes, we said here i will not be treated. well, dad, he said let's go home, you will study at our school, then next to the house and everything. maybe he was even glad, because , probably, that i was so hmm, i didn’t really want to, and thanks. here again the meaning of life

accident of course, and we went to the station on foot directly from gum through from the school through lenin quietly. he says, let's go to the house of sovetskaya 19. grigory romanovich screen mushrooms live here. we went to sovetskoye 19 to friends to sergei grigoryevich and leonid grigorievna. the maceral aunt already said, well, what is it, uh, we have two daughters still studying at this school. here, well, let's put it behind closet to him a bed, let well, what's there, lord, i really do . so i was in the family, i was, of course, well-groomed , they followed me, like with my son and yuri

nikolayevich and what was the most difficult thing in this independent life for you to catch up with the eleven-year-old level at that time, because the school, grodno, after all did not reach the school for gifted children at the conservatory and, of course, the school was with a very large authority among the musical world of that time. and, of course, to catch up, in terms of level. it was very important, we didn't manage to do it in a fairly short time and i myself began to travel as representatives of these schools. here , together with their colleagues with students, go to concerts in different cities. after school. you dreamed of entering the moscow conservatory. we went passed the exams received. uh, excellent in my specialty, but, unfortunately, in history i got a three.

but, apparently, i had no directions. it was necessary to take someone else. probably this is also a happy accident or unlucky ones, and your classmates received the only direction in the whole country from the cult. yes, kristina poplavskaya it is clear to you then, because she was a child prodigy, and what is not. i didn't really worry, because we were. together with vladimir kuzmenko, they entered the conservatory there. well, it happens that, despite the fact that i successfully passed something, but without an exam, we were then accepted into the belarusian conservatory. you nevertheless entered graduate school at the moscow nu truth already after the end of our conservatory. yes, that's the main difference between the schools. uh, our music schools are basically no different from the moscow one, because we

sort of split up from this school, because the moscow school and the russian performing school. it also gave a huge ground for the development of all national music schools of the former soviet union, including belarus our traffic jams.

not only everything, but we listen to the aliubads in turn on the first zest. this is a new breath. and one more chance to live and like the fashion of music is changing. and it seems to me that young people will listen, they will just listen and enjoy ours

correctly. i'll return culturally from the old expeditions at once with a project on pirates on belarus 204 tv channel. we share useful information about holidays in belarus lv. grodno is certainly a hallmark of the city, and it is open almost around the clock, but we advise you. guess the time when there is a service here. feel the atmosphere let's plunge into the history of cities and villages. the new faith summoned the local parishioners, who in every possible way defended their rights and only with the advent of vladislav the fourth vase to the throne. orthodox prayers resounded here. this is a frog in relaxation. the locals call it that, well, this is

an example for all the townspeople, how you need to not only work, but also relax and explore local attractions. now this is a museum, and i’ll note it absolutely free, you can come and see and see that there are a lot of small antique objects and believe me, it will drag on for more than one hour of reconciliation, look at this and end up with someone important to yourself reconcile. this unique spring flows here, they say tsar peter himself drank water from it travel with us to belarus 24. / 7 a project in which in just 20 minutes you will have time to learn about the most important thing over the past week to strengthen the knowledge of the belarusian language with our guides go into the past and plunge into the world of the chuffing etna and much more 24 hours a

day, 7 days a week, we have things for you. choose the profession of a musician, you dreamed of teaching or you are more of a manila scene. it's kind of natural it happened because i was surrounded by music teachers since childhood, including my parents. my brother and sister, and nevertheless my teachers, who not only played, were engaged in performing, but also passed on some of their mentoring opportunities, so it hmm to swim from my flesh, it

happened by itself. basically. i came after moscow, there was no possibility of a place for the belarusian academy of belarus, the conservatory to work , and vladimir vladimirovich lovnikov said, you’ll work at eleven. in this very they brought me very small children, who not only had to be given to adults , but who would give it better right away, so i had to try to strive to make them eyebrows. to read by the best students, did everything justify, er, from your childhood expectations about a career as a musician, probably not. no, everything cannot be everything, because everything depends on different specialties. eh, i'm lucky. i have been

in love with my future wife and 20 years since i was at school. hmm. i got married. i have olga parfenovna. soviet candidate of art history, musician, theorist we demolished at the same desk of the music school. and now, in the sixty-eighth year, we are husband and wife. the family, you know, also some kind of school ones. feelings remained, so i was not very worried about not entering the moscow conservatory. simultaneously. i was drawn, again minsk when somehow. and only then, when i was in graduate school. she often came to moscow and so on. after that you were in moscow, you returned to minsk and went to teach at the musical lyceum college. it was exactly what you wanted then at first, of course not, it didn’t turn out that i was already worthy of the conservatory, that i should teach good ones came from the moscow

conservatory from a professor. i'm still dreaming. as it is, but it is a great happiness to work with talented children and see how they grow up, how they suddenly begin to play some serious piano pieces of simple songs and simple compositions. and when you watch it, i liked everything, and in general, i still work at this school and now as a professor at the conservatory. i leave behind all the time. uh happiness to communicate with someone from the talented future musicians, they say thoughts are material. because very soon you got the position of the head of the

department. you were 28 years old. somehow it worked out. well, a place was vacated in the conservatory for the head of the department of accompanist skills. it was e in general, er, the department, which had the rights of an elective, but the concert of the ministry, after all, not everyone becomes a piano soloist themselves, participate in all chamber and local instrumental compositions. no piano. the life of a singer is absolutely impossible and therefore the accompanist's chair. she teaches not only to play, but also to accompany the company. so be someone's partner. it attracted me very much and still attracts and interested me.

your career was developing perfectly, you taught solo and in tandem with gennady zabara. and suddenly you received an offer to become an artistic director, you immediately agreed to the belgus philharmonic, you really liked it and my department was wonderful musicians. i had no idea that i could lead, be some kind of leader, boss, some kind of over

artists, and so on. even now i can’t imagine this after 39 years of my work at the belarusian philharmonic society as some kind of boss. i never was. i serve art served in music and continue to serve. that is, there were some internal fears. yes, there were, of course, and your fears, so to speak, they were justified. no, no, these were internal fears. well, i knew that i was going to a generally familiar atmosphere where concerts are played, where programs are being prepared where festivals are held. it was interesting. it was a highly interesting professional. and it was my new one. life a whole

new life. and why did you still make such a decision was it difficult to refuse? you see, when they said it was necessary, you understand, something needs to be changed in this , because hmm and i were surrounded by very interesting people, directors of the ministers of culture, who, in general, were happy for the development of musical culture. e of belarus and what was the philharmonic, when you for the first time crossed its threshold as an artistic hand and a good leader, wonderful musicians, there have already been created. uh, dew fish song, and so on. the first thing we did was make friends quite with. uh, vladimir georgievich spent with him. uh, creative conversation. by the way, he called me, work is also the first thing we decided. let's connect. the academy of academic music is

pop art, because you can’t earn by pop music, yes, a symphony orchestra, and they began to work for themselves and the state began help really academic music, and then thank you ministry of culture. then we started buying instruments, started buying grand pianos, you know, we started buying , we started thinking about how to develop. it is true that there are no analogues of our philharmonic society in the entire post-soviet space, what makes it unique in the philharmonic society is just one symphony orchestra and a concert venue where some kind of philharmonic action takes place - this can be the organization of a good tour, a good managerial point, which can be and world-class philharmonic, for example, the outstanding berlin philharmonic is first of all the symphony orchestra and the belarusian

philharmonic is unique in that the philharmonic groups that were born they were many genre. different directions of music in the sixty-eighth year, yanchenko and oleg created the chamber orchestra, which still exists in uh, the screen chapel came to us under our roof under our wing of the philharmonic in due time. uh, the oldest one of the oldest collectives, what else chamber, in my opinion, the chamber choir forums created by the belarusian philharmonic, national orchestra from zhenovich. in the family he represented e-e creativity, thanks to our philharmonic society, regional philharmonic societies were formed, creative teams appeared in

other cities. here is the connection with the academy of music, the connection with the conservatory and the connection with young performers. she gives some kind of refreshment all the time. over these 40 years, the philharmonic, of course, has undergone huge changes in the repertoire in personnel policy. you, the building itself, in general, experienced such a global renovation. it was a hard time, i understand, so i wanted to know from you how the philharmonic has changed your life over the years. she became a home. it was necessary to spend the night there almost almost to protect the interests of the

artists, most importantly, and feel their need, as a musician, which, in general, exacerbated. he is also very important. and how does the family treat yours. workaholism, which is already chronic , is actually the same for me and olga parfyonovna savitskaya, she not only teaches. she also leads concerts. uh, masterpieces of organs and music. she is in music all the time. she writes creative works, and so i'm at home stepping over a huge amount of scattered sheets. not wanting to break anything, then for the reason that it is very important there goes another creative work. she is my theorist and theorist in demand

, it is also very important that we help each other. we can say that the song music connected us, it's about you, of course. of course, maybe so, what you most regret in life is hard to say, in general, i can’t say that i regret something. i am a happy person in life. i can't say that i i would wish for something different, but of course, uh, there is always something really missing a little. er, i'd love to. so that we continue to develop, so that there is peace, so that there is hmm peace and the only opportunity is to compete at music festivals and at international music competitions and sports

competitions. i love football. i love sports, i love to watch all our matches, and in my childhood we played football. well, of course, as he also did not play from the boys. true, it was necessary to go to a music school, most of all you are proud of their students to their families. that, in general, we are not lucky that we are like-minded students in this sense, who have always pleased me and are still happy now. here are those who are alive, who always have some good intentions of tradition, and they go out to pop music, yuri nikolayevich is in demand, our program is called the meaning of life, what is the meaning of life for you. this is

the most difficult question of life - is it a happy chance that should be cherished, like the apple of the eye of life, for the reason that it is given? this is a huge mystery, as it is for every person. it happens when life is sunrise and sunset . this is the smell of lilac. this is a forest, this is a river. this is dad. mom, this is a beloved woman. that 's a lot. these are kids. this is a wonderfully perfect phenomenon, therefore, in life there is always. eh, the most important thing is that creative life should be up to each person, and each person is a creator. each person is not only the creator of his own happiness, but he also creates something for other people. in any

profession therefore, and music makes you feel in other individuals. also some kind of human happiness, and this is the feeling progress feeling development feeling youthfulness the embodiment of the holy spirit yes creativity and for life. thanks a lot. this was the meaning of the life of yuri gelk.

dear friends, meet the president of the republic of belarus alexander grigoryevich lukashenko for the first time to my shame, firstly, for the first time that i meet with our pioneers. even better, on the other hand, your leaders.
