Five questions for the artists
What does the instrument have that you
play that the others don't?
What do you especially love about him?
What annoys you about him?
My instrument consists of two instruments -
violin and bow. And to play, you need another
substance - rosin. The slightest change in body
movement brings about a change in the tone.
My instrument is very light and you can take it
with you anywhere. It can imitate the human
and animal voice. It is very fragile and can be
very expensive.
You would never want to do without the
music of which composer in your life?
Bach, Vivaldi, Paganini, Telemann, Wieniawski,
Tschaikowski, Rimski-Korsikov and Glazunov.
What are you reluctant to do?
Boring homework.
Do you do sports? Which?
Swim.
What makes you angry?
When it is not possible to play or have fun.
