[000:00:00;00] jazz is a unique form of musical art, which, with its unique , bright sound, unites races of nationality, erases the boundaries between people and countries, the history of belarusian jazz dates back to the creation of the first jazz orchestra, more than... 80 years ago, under the leadership of edie rosner, it was created state jazz orchestra of the bssr. in modern belarus , the honored team of the national academic orchestra of symphonic and pop music of the republic of belarus has become the successors of the traditions of the great jazzman. in headed by its leader, people's artist of belarus mikhail yakovlevich finberg.

together with his team, he has attended more than a hundred festivals, including the minsk jazz festival, beloved by many music lovers in belarus. unfortunately, the maestra left this world, but his creative legacy continues to live on. it's been 34 years now. minsk jazz is a bright event in the cultural life of the belarusian capital. today the artistic director and chief conductor of the orchestra is maxim rasokha, laureate of international competitions, scholarship recipient of the special fund of the president of the republic of belarus for the support of talented youth. maxim nikolaevich, hello, good afternoon, it’s no secret that jazz

is far from slavic music. but today they know about it and play it all over the world, and there is even an opinion that there are roots of belarusian jazz, so tell us, what was the path of jazz to our country? the path of jazz is unique in our country, because no one imagined that it could appear, considering the soviet union, how would everything be like this here? more academic music and nothing foreign seemed to be very welcome, but the fact is that already when, let’s say, the beginning of the war happened in 309, and when... hitler’s germany captured part of poland, many polish musicians, artists, singers , cultural figures, mostly they were of jewish nationality, naturally, they were persecuted, they escaped, where did they go, they went, as they say, to the east, because they could escape, just the city of belvostok, at that time it turned out to be soviet the city, and there such a large number of musicians accumulated that several orchestras were created, and one of

these orchestras was led by... zazadsky, this orchestra that he created became the prototype of the first state jazz orchestra of the bssr, and the famous trumpeter eddie was invited to lead this orchestra rosner, who later also became an honored artist of the bssr, so in fact this orchestra of emigrants existed for seven years from 1940 to the forty-seventh year existed on our territory, the period wartime, the great patriotic war, he traveled, lived on the train, and accordingly all the musicians, they had no housing, it was a separate train, a train that traveled throughout the soviet union, performed both in tlu and in advanced positions, for fighters, supporting their morale, so well, this is a significant event for us and i want to say that even as soon as the city of gomel, the first belarusian city, was liberated, the orchestra gave a series of concerts in the liberated city in ruins, then there was the city of minsk in the city in the building opera house, by the way there were a lot of concerts, jazz is not just

a stage jazz for us. this is the orchestra that did a great job during the great patriotic war and indeed this is our national music, and what is most interesting is that compositions were created, in addition to world ones, which are performed by this group, compositions were also created by edi rosner, yuri belzatsky and many others belorsky composers, we were lucky that we found in the archives a work called jazz in the night, it dates back to 1940, then in fact, this is one of the first works from the repertoire of this orchestra and we perform them. with great pleasure and tell the public that this is ours, this is our heritage, for almost 80 years, last year we gave a whole big concert as part of the belarusian jazz evening at naratush, we gave an anthology of belarusian jazz, where starting from the forties, here was the composer yuri belzatsky rosner, then there was evgeny grishman, evgeny glebov, igor luchenok, vladimir olovnikov, and in fact the whole

an anthology of belarusian jazz from creation. to our times was heard from the stage where we talked about what it was, that we should be proud of it, that many people came up to us and said, but we didn’t know that we have such a rich history since the forties, so we were it’s very nice that we also perform an educational function. jazz certainly has its listeners all over the world, and this musical direction has developed and continues to develop. styles such as blues, souul, swing and so on. regarding our belarusian listeners, what style do they perceive? who is your main audience? firstly, of course, to listen to jazz, you need to love it, just like anyone else. music, especially since there is jazz that is more accessible, like swing, and there is jazz, which is very complex, it is so for a sophisticated audience that must be prepared, that understands jazz, we of course perform music that is more accessible to people, so that people enjoy it from the music, didn’t sit in

tension that there was something on stage now something crazy is happening, some kind of accessible swing stuff, especially in the forties and fifties from the repertoire of the glen miller orchestra, duke ellington, that is, those are already luminaries, those meters are recognized, so like those compositions that we play are basically here are compositions from the repertoire of these great artists. our audience, in principle, loves jazz, we watch it because, firstly, we have several projects - annually, this is minsk jazz, three concerts, every day in a row, three different jazz concerts in let's just say this year there were very interesting three diverse multi-genre events, the first concert was an exception to instrumental music, called a jazz kaleidoscope, the second concert was dedicated to youth in jazz, called where... young artists, our talented ones, they were mostly girls, by the way, we sang to the orchestra, and we dedicated the third concert to mikhailovich finberg and the orchestra, we called it a concert of a personality, an orchestra of a legend, you

named the world's outstanding jazzmen, you probably know the belarusian ones too jazzmen, do we know about them? well, i want to say, firstly, our team, the national academic concert orchestra. firstly, this is a group, we are talking about a jazz group, about the big band of this group, then this is the best group of our country, the legislator of jazz music, pop jazz - it’s true, here are the best musicians performing music in this style, this is an excellent guitarist, this is sergey antishin, honored artist of belarus, aleksandar kolinovsky bass guitar, also honored artist of belarus, vadim chaikov, our wonderful drummer is also honored, these are honored people of our country, igor borankovsky is simply phenomenal. plus our brass players, who know how to improvise, not every performer knows how to play improvisation, but with us he can do it. and what are the distinctive features of belarusian jazz? there was such a person as evgeny grishman, he worked for 5 years in the radio orchestra, under the direction of boris raisky. we

know that boris arajski came from china and brought jazz here too, shanghai jazz, as they called it, they are in the circus i was a conductor and that’s it. and just evgeny grishman, he was a flittist and arranger, over the course of 5 years he created a large series. on belarusian themes, on the theme of belarusian folk songs, dances, that is, in fact, this is probably the most important thing, bach also relied on his german folklore, all composers in their work, this is their national highlight in the fact that this is folklore or near folklore , evgeny glebov did the same, he wrote both on belarusian folk themes, and created his own pseudo belarusian folk themes, everyone thought that this is a folk theme, but it was the author's music, his own, the author's melody. therefore, it is very important in national jazz - this is jazz based on national roots, this is very important, first of all, and secondly , what is clear is that there is german jazz, there is american jazz, there is russian jazz, there has already been a century of russian jazz once was noted, but we seem to have our own special

jazz, it is based on the traditions of both european and russian jazz, in combination, as always, our entire classical school, with the composer school - this is a combination of the west and the east, that is, we are right in the middle geographically. these influences have great significance on us, that’s why our jazz is such a synthesis of different jazz directions, eras, and of course this is our value, that we can do this and that. and your big band has worked and continues to work only with live sound without the use of a soundtrack. tell us, what is the magic of live sound? film, cassette, when we insert it, it goes as it is, it, we know that now this will happen, but it will, and in a minute it will sound like this. especially if you can listen to it several times, we are already accustomed to this sound; there is already a standard in our heads, when performed by a live orchestra there is no standard, it seems to be there, but today i am in such a mood, i want it differently, i can slow down the tempo take, i can ask the musician

while playing to just play with his hands more quietly, softly, that is, i give out the emotion, yes, that is, if there is no conductor, the orchestra can play unconditionally, but it will be just music, like in disk, here it comes, what it is is what it is , in the process there is a conductor, what is a conductor for, to create a process is no longer a result, a result, yes, here it already is , we have done everything, they can play, but to achieve what you want, when the concert begins, the most interesting thing, for example, i’m in this mood, right? that is, the rehearsal process and the heartbeat, the pulse is one thing, it’s so even, at a concert everything really clears up, somewhere the tempos are different, you already catch something different you caught the character and you are in the process of performing, at the moment of performing a concert, you get this from them, you ask them to show it, just like that, they don’t expect it, because they don’t, well, it ’s like we learned it, here everything is completely different, so of course , live performance, this is the magic when you launch an emotion into the orchestra and the orchestra gives it to the listeners, it is important to bewitch so

that the emotion goes there, and we finish playing, and they still have euphoria, this is a live performance for me, what do you think are the main components of a successful presentation? firstly, the selection of the repertoire, this is very important, not just the selection of the repertoire, but its arrangement into a concert program , yes, that is, for example, 20 numbers need to be arranged so that it is interesting, and not just some kind of confusion, firstly secondly, preparation for the concert, it is clear that the musician has a note written, so he plays as it is written. and if you ask him here to be softer, here louder, and here more carefully, and here to show this new tidy up, that is, he records it all with a pencil, at a concert in in principle, we already know that everything will happen to them now, so we bring this out to our listeners, so it is very important to get the musicians to emphasize that music, in principle, already exists, but here is the melody, there is a development of the melody and the like, it’s very important to emphasize this, to add something of your own, your vision, how i would like it to sound like this. that i want, for example , chimney sweeps to play this way, and trumpet players here

to play differently, this is a creative process of preparation, when everything is ready, you know how cake, success is when it’s delicious, i say, the music should always be delicious , it’s like absolute cooking, that means we come to a restaurant, take the menu and see some picture of the dish, we call the waiter, he says, what’s here? it would be, and he says, here it is , here it is, whipped cream, there’s a cherry on top, we’ve already imagined a fantasy that works, as if bring it, they bring us this dish, here we imagined two will be the other, or vice versa , really delicious, that is, the music is the same, that is, at concerts i say, like a waiter, what’s going to happen now, but because, by the way, by the way, and in general , this thing is such a genius, and then it’s a game, it’s very important for me to reinforce it, so that people say yes, it’s very tasty, the music should be tasty, musicians - true masters of improvisation, an honored team over... the national academic concert orchestra

of belarus named after mikhail finberg annually presents jazz fans with a wide palette of world classics of jazz music, introduces the best composers and performers of this musical directions. if you want to feel at least for a moment the beauty and grandeur of this elite music, then we invite you to attend events such as the now traditional minsk jazz festival: in turn, you will receive a real jazz cocktail of enchanting rhythms, bright melodies, virtuosic improvisation and of course,

harmony. jazz music is strong in the present moment, it does not have any script, it is a dialogue and the musicians make a decision about what emotions to share with listeners in a matter of minutes. a split second based on what we feel right now, you and i still have to enjoy hundreds of wonderful concerts of bold experiments, and witness... the emergence of new styles, expand your musical horizons, be in the present moment, follow fashion trends in cultural life our country, alina nevoina was with you, remember, being cultural is fashionable, see you in

a week, until new cultural meetings. it was expected that the 141st october session could put an end to the issue of the participation of belarusians at the olympics in paris. still, the end of the year is approaching, it’s high time to plan the next season, but in mumbai there was only rhetoric without any specifics, but the whole industry cannot remain in limbo, since last week at a joint forum belarus and russia actually reacted to a wait-and-see attitude thomas bach, they discussed modern sport, its innovations and

prospects, they agreed that closer integration in most team sports is ahead, but an invitation to paris and belarus and... we are still waiting, today, despite the fact that sanctions have been imposed on our sport and the sport of the russian federation, we continue to work today, regardless of these sanctions, our athletes will have practice, will have the opportunity for various kinds competitions, levels to engage in, perform, win and prepare, i think that sooner or later, all these people who today head these international olympic committees, who... who were, spoke from the rostrum today, today sport should be a unifying force, but not on the contrary, dividing countries, peoples, athletes, and so on. this is sportskadr,

hello, look at the program today. we lack performing skills in completion. torpeda and neman slowed each other down in the fight for medals. to the delight of dynamo minsk, they are those people who, unfortunately, do not make decisions themselves, how sanctions work, vladimir konoplev gave a comprehensive example of the dependence of international federations on the mock, the opponent knocked them out of the reception, unforced errors, in principle they lost easily, the belarusian volleyball players had a bad start in the russian championships, we are figuring out why some things worked out and others didn’t, there is still time to draw certain conclusions and move on. they returned to the world cup stages and immediately swam to the podium, but they were not allowed there. impression in a sports frame. torpedo belas and neman are competing for championship medals, which means european competitions, where good money is paid, and very good money is paid in the champions league, and grodno is aiming there.

there are five rounds until the end of the championship, there is virtually no time to correct mistakes, but in last friday, these two clubs shared three points between themselves and absolutely. there could be no compromises. the clubs are headed by two hot men, who are often fined and sent to watch football from the stands. both neman and torpeda conceded the least amount of goals in the championship. all this leads me to the fact that vzhodin’s game itself did not promise a certain aesthetics, but had the highest emotional intensity. our correspondent alexander yakubovsky felt it, working from the edge. both clubs torpedo belas and neman are on an international break. the automakers defeated naftan , and the grodno team belshina, by the way, the trio from grodno was invited by carlos alos ferrer to the main team of the country, and two draws with the leaders of our group, the romanians and the swiss, were a worthy result of the october training camp. these are results that speak first of all about the potential of our

team, our guys, and everyone could see that they can, and i hope that they can. and believe in yourself even more, the current coaching staff has done a great job, and we see it, as they say, with the naked eye, but it’s even more noticeable when you you observe this with your own eyes in the training process, including in theoretical classes, so this is the result of excellent work and i... am sure that it will get better, and of course, we all want victories, but not all at once, everything has to come gradually, we are grateful to the way he builds this even methodical work on planning the training camp, analyzing the training camp, and he regularly

notes that he wants to get to know as many guys as possible, he has on his pencil - let’s say, not 23 football players, but almost 50, uh, so - in in this regard, i hope that his passion will really burn , and his desire to improve our team will only multiply, we haven’t won for 2 years, everyone was waiting for at least something, now we are playing in a draw with switzerland, in a goal draw, we score three, and we are upset that we are playing in a draw with such a team, which , excuse me, is fifteenth in the ranking, fifa, therefore seventh in the uefa ranking, so here we should expect something, or demand something it is, of course, very difficult to do more here now, i

hope that they will take this burden off themselves, inspired by the energy that the coaching staff, in particular carlos, charges them with, egor parkhomenko again received a call to the national team, but so far the twenty-year-old defender of neman has not made his debut for the white krylov, maybe he sees something, some potential, let’s see for the future is considering, it will be seen further, but from the outside, but the emotions were very, very strong, well, when in the 88th minute it was 1:3 in our favor, we, to be honest, already celebrated a little, even perhaps for a minute, and then it happened that besieged us, therefore well, of course, it was a shame to let go of the victory, well, in general, 3:3 is also a good result, there was no such mood that there was only one way to fight back , that the top players, i believe, that we have in our team, were that challenge, excellent players who played absolutely well. with such an eminent opponent and even the fact that carlos in the locker room told everyone to raise their heads - this

is an excellent result, this is a top team, and we looked more than worthy against the background of this team, i think so, why not to finish this selection, to score the maximum number of points, this is also one of the goals , i think that it’s probably worth doing, the tour for the youth team was not so positive, this is not only due to the results, they lost 1:6. and 0:2 croatia, the team got into an unpleasant situation after a meeting with pereneits, and ruslan lisakovich ended up in the hospital with a concussion, but this story is not about alcohol, i’m sure that the player’s brother, dmitry, is also. what can i say, my brother has agents, if you want to know something, and there are representatives federation, call them, i think they explain everything to you, as for my brother, i just asked how his health is and we communicate with him every day, okay, everything is fine, yes, there was no question of any violation,

i’m telling you, i’m telling you, call there are federations, there are agents, we’ll tell you everything, well, it’s easier to ask your brother, well, i don’t believe that my brother could violate the regime, and this is already... the car manufacturers pulled out in stoppage time nashchu in the match with neman 1:1. kiril premudrov brought the hosts one point, although the torpedo belas coach in the evening i had to worry a lot on friday. i can’t look at this anymore, this is something, it would be very, very disappointing to lose in such a game, thank god. for the umpteenth time this season, we save ourselves in the last minutes, which means the team has some kind of core, character, and well, a draw, so to speak, is not

good for us, unfortunately, we are dissatisfied with the result, this is in favor of dynamo, in principle, well it turns out that out of these 2 draws, it would be even better, it seems to me, to win six of them, lose six, we would have scored more points than with these twelve draws, i don’t want to be a team that is so friendly, well damn, 12 games, that’s almost half of the championship games, that is, 12 games we played in a draw out of... 12 games are more than half, i think this is where we just missed victory, this friendliness has fed us up a little, ours, on the contrary, is not a daring team, unfriendly, but so far it’s been going out on the field like this, which means we’re missing something, it’s executive craftsmanship in the end, yes, maybe we’re not finalizing it somewhere, that’s you just need to treat this this way, look for what the problem is, under no circumstances to be content with this draw and assume that somehow everything is going well, we are fighting it, we considered that the match would be more intense. on their part, that’s why we played a little, a little less actively, maybe than our previous games , so we pushed away from the opponent, so

we played this match a little defensively, the chase for dynamo continues, of course, well, we’re not chasing anyone , we are preparing for the game with islachu, so let dynamo play their games, we will play our games and you will see on december 2 result, the leader is acting impeccably so far, seven wins in a row, in the capital derby dynamo beats minsk 1:0 and is now ahead of neman in the standings by five points. for your attention, the results of all matches of the tour, victories are achieved by bate and gomel, which means that the fight for championship medals awaits us very hotly, at least five teams are vying for bronze in the championship. the miner, thanks to victoria in bobruiskaya, breaks away from belshina in the saving thirteenth line, and the power engineering specialist bgu is going to compete with vitaly pavlov’s team for the position. play-off matches. only five points already separate the clubs. the twenty-sixth round starts on friday, with the match between the students

and smargonia. last week the belarusian handball derby ska meshkov brest took place, in which hegemon was again slightly stronger. such intensity in the championship happens on major holidays, so for international practice, belarusians go to the sega league, where the level of resistance is much higher, but you still want to play with all the strongest. head of the handball federation vladimir konoplev today in sports he will very sincerely tell you how things stand with returning to the ehf. even a home-made tincture was involved in the negotiation process , but for now international handball , despite all its good attitude towards the belarusians, is waiting for the go-ahead from the mock. let's watch the interview. vladimir nikolaevich, thank you for the interview, in my opinion, it is always interesting. let's start with the most important thing, like mood. i’m in a good mood

after yesterday’s work in gomel, and the people are with me. somehow difficulties unite us all, so almost all of us were like-minded people, that is, on tuesday, october 17, the executive committee was held in gomel, what were the main topics that naturally came up there , i can’t help but ask, so i put them in front of me, all written down, we paid special attention to the development of children’s and youth handball in the gomnik region, strategy ... development, determined the strategy for the development of handball for the next 5 years, again the newly appointed coach of our women's national team of the republic of belarus, valery petrovich pevnitsky, also spoke, briefly, if i may say so,

spoke about the strategy for the development and formation of our women's team, well, then there are working questions, summed up the performance of our teams at the games from our coaches reported, it was pleasant to listen to them, talked about plans for the future, shared certain problems, well, without going into details, just recently you met with the head of the ehf hassan mustafa , how productive was this meeting, maybe there is already some response, or so far everything is complicated, it is the most , if not productive, then interesting was, we have friendly relations with the president of the international federation, personal, personal, personal, well... when he came to open the recruiting complex, he told me: volodya, i have a million such complexes, but i came to you as a friend, so of course, i was grateful to him for this, because the visit of this very person, a leader of such a level, especially respected throughout the world , of course, is very important, in general, for the belarusian federation, this is the same thing, well, i was pleased as a person, that’s what concerns in

in addition, we really met as friends, i gave him a bottle. based on her tincture, which she made herself, she said that this is a tincture of longevity, after 100 years you can drink it, so i would wish him good health, that’s what concerns handball, they are those people who, unfortunately, do not make decisions themselves, politics is politics , i told him three times, i say , my dear friend, but bach’s recommendations do not mean that this is an instruction for action, for execution, you can listen to them or not listen. he still came back, no, vladimir, we can’t, so and so, then i asked him a question: are you financially dependent on the international olympic committee, he said, yes, that’s it, there are no questions, what have i achieved, he said that they will write another letter to the bug, they will express, they will express in it all those requests that were made from me as from a representative of the belarusian

federation, so we are waiting, i’ll wait a little. and then back, well, i want to say that some of our former friends there wanted to create such an obstruction for us, to leave the room, but the european federation is i cut everything down, and it turned out that we ourselves, uh, left the hall because they removed the flag, i said that since there is no flag of our country, only a sign, we are not going to attend your congress, then
