On April 9, four students of the Children's Music School, who were selected after an correspondence competition, performed in the “Instrumental Performance” nomination.

With great excitement, teachers and parents were waiting for the little contestants near the media screens, where the live broadcast of the performances took place, because the entrance to the hall was open only to members of the jury and, of course, young performers.

After listening to all the participants in the competition, the jury retired to sum up the results, spending much less time on everything than expected according to the regulations. All the event participants held their breath... Letter of thanks and a valuable prize from the Governor of the region were awarded to Aparovich Sofia (piano) (teacher Saraeva A.Yu.) and Shepeleva Yuliana (saxophone) (teacher Slobodenyuk I.S.)

Performance by Polina Zhuravel made us all nervous, as the spontaneity and energy of her performance of “Movement” attracted the attention of S. Zhilin, who asked her to perform “something else from her program.” It so happened that Polina had a small solo concert of three works. In addition, Polina received several valuable advice from great master of his business Sergei Zhilin. The title of 1st degree Laureate and Grand Prix was not awarded to anyone, so we can say with confidence that Polina was the best in her nomination.

As soon as the excitement subsided, Sergei Zhilin himself gathered the guys around the piano and gave them and everyone present a real master class. “There are a lot of very interesting guys. It’s very nice that all this is being cultivated and developed here. The most important thing is that the guys are interested, their eyes are sparkling. They want to learn something new,” emphasized Sergei Zhilin.The competition came to an end amid shouts of delight and thunderous applause from the audience. Everyone present took autographs from the master.

The saying of Pythagoras very accurately characterizes this unforgettable day: “Life is like games: some come to compete, others to trade, and the happy ones to watch.” We have experienced everything!
