Exclusive interview: Sergey Kuznechov

 

kuziaSergey Kuznetsov – Russian composer, poet and songwriter. He is the ideological founder of the group “Tender May” and author of numerous of their songs. I have been following the music he produces in Creative Studio Sergey Kuznechov and you will find several articles on several of its projects at theskykid.com.ย  You can read about: Steklovata, New Forms and Chernila dlya pyatogo klassa. The music produced by Creative Studio Sergey Kuznechov can be easily defined as magical and inspiring. The lyrics written by Sergey have influenced generations with their purity and healing spirit. As people often say about him: ” He taught us how to listen not with our ears, but with our soul.”

Being a long time admirer, it was inevitable that I wouldย try to obtain an interview with Sergey, paying tribute to his creativity andย introducing his music to you, my readers. I amย very pleased that he agreed to respond to the questions that I prepared for him.ย  This article is the result of our communication. I made sure that the interview is available in both English and Russian and, evenย though I know that the translation is not perfect, I hope that whatever your native language isย you willย enjoy the interview and the clips below.

Steklovata with the their producer Sergey Kuznechov

steklovata

[EN] TheSkyKid.com: Studio Sergey Kuznechov has many music projects, yet the one most known outside of the Russian speaking countries is the musical group Steklovata. Why do you think Steklovata has gained more exposure compared with the other projects of the studio (all of which are just as talented in my opinion)?

[EN] TheSkyKid.com: Last year, a film was released in Russia which told the story of the music group “Gentle May” which you created back in the 1980s. According to Wikipedia, “The popularity of this group was similar to the popularity of ‘The Beatles’ in the Soviet Union at the time.” While doingย the research for my review of the film, I read that the story portrayed in the film departed a bit from the real events and history of the group. Is there a big difference and were you involved in some way during the shooting of the film?

You remember, waking up,As the old year leaves.And all thatย  happened,

Will not be repeated.

And it will be just a memory

Reliable, right to remember

Why you are in the school of life

successful and learned …

You will remember the night and summer,

And the lake at the cottage,

And the first experience

When you whisper that you love …

And a year carries it all away

Oh, first love!

That you won`t forget …

Do not cry boy, do not

Regret the past with nostalgia,

So many things are bound to happen –

You are only thirteen.

Night caresses , oathsย  …

And you’ll remember them,

A Christmas whisper:

” Grow up, to fall in love!”

In conclusion, in doing my research on Sergey, there are three things not covered specifically in the interview which I learned and want to share with my readers about him.

First, he is part of a culture in Russia that desires to share the arts, in Sergeyโ€™s case his music, with the people of the world. In other words, he wants the arts available to all classes โ€“ not just those who can afford them. Therefore, he makes his work, and that of the artists he works with, available via the Internet.ย  His work, including the expenses of his studio, is supported by donations from supporters and the sales of CDs via his website.ย  This is very unlike how things work in the Western world.

Secondly, over many years, Sergey has worked with the underprivileged in his area, especially underprivileged children.ย  Heโ€™s worked with many of them fostering their artistic talents and giving them feelings of self worth, when no one else would.

Thirdly, with regard to the musical group โ€œAngel Catโ€, his observation was that when he first brought the kids together, what struck one was how diverse their personalities were, almost to the point where one would question whether they could even work together.ย  But he has slowly gotten them to work well together so they are able to produce an excellent sound โ€“ wonderfully harmonic music.
