Voice. Children: 7 of the brightest participants in the show

– From the age of four, Sasha has been individually engaged in vocal, from the age of seven he goes to a music school, – says her mother, Anya. – She sang from early childhood, although no one is particularly fond of music in the family. But quite early on, I noticed that she dances to the beat of the music, claps her hands rhythmically, if she sings, she easily remembers the tune. Her craving for music began very early. Participate in the project “Voice. Children ”was recommended by the producer of the children’s choir“ Giant ”Andrei Arturovich Pryazhnikov, where Sasha successfully studies and with whom he tours, gains experience of performing on the big stage. Andrey Arturovich chose Edith Piaf’s song “Padam” for her in French, after which Sasha wanted to learn this language. Thanks to her rehearsals with Zulfiya Valeeva, a vocal teacher, the song acquired the beauty and charm that are now collecting thousands of views on the Internet. Everyone with whom Sasha is engaged in music notes her incredible ability to work, she learns quickly, and is ready to repeat and try as many times until she succeeds. A very stubborn child.

My daughter does not attend a regular school, she studies at home: with teachers on Skype, with me, with dad, grandmother. This is our joint choice. As a mother, it seems to me that the school curriculum is not so complicated as to spend so much time on it. You can pass it much faster, pass exams and do what you like in life. There are so many interesting things in the world. In this regard, Sasha has an example before her eyes: her mom and dad, who do not go to the office, but do what they love. I am a photographer, my husband is a skipper on a yacht. The daughter sees that it is possible to earn money by doing what you love, to be free and happy.

One of Sasha’s favorite hobbies is alpine skiing. She began to learn to skate at the age of three. I did it on easy tracks, but not for children – I didn’t want to and quickly switched to more difficult ones, and then to the “black” ones (the steepest. – Approx. “Antennas”). Once we went up by mistake to the upper station of the lift, and from there down there were only “black” slopes. “Don’t go to the lift, mom,” Sasha said. She was then five years old. And slowly, somewhere sideways and slowly, we went down the mountain. Sasha was then very proud of herself. And this definitely added to her self-confidence. I just trusted her, insured, of course, worried, but supported, as in everything she does, what she undertakes. Sasha is already skiing better than me and is trying to catch up with his dad. This is, in principle, in her style – if there is some difficult task, for example, to hold out longer on the horizontal bar, to dive for a while in the pool, she accepts any challenge, and more often she comes up with these challenges herself. It inspires her. If he sits down to collect puzzles, then a thousand pieces, if a Rubik’s cube, then at speed. She constantly needs to set records. And no one demands this from her, for some reason she needs it herself. Sasha loves board games, those where you have to think more. She says that mathematics trains her brain, and a smart brain is a useful thing in life.

– The daughter’s abilities were noticed not even by us, but by her musical director in the kindergarten Olga Evgenievna Luzhetskaya, for which we are very grateful to her, – recalls the girl’s mother Maria. – She called me, noted that my daughter sings well, and said that she would like to invite her to her ensemble. And we began to take her there with the prospect, so that then Dasha would go to the gymnasium, where Olga Evgenievna teaches. My daughter got involved, they began to send her to contests. The head of the ensemble advised us to apply to the children’s “Voice”. Since she went on maternity leave, another teacher, Irina Alekseevna Viktorova, prepared Dasha for the project. We found her in the pop-vocal studio “Zvezdopad” in our city. For five months she individually studied vocals with Dasha, and it was Irina Alekseevna who picked up the song of the IOWA group “Mama”, changed the second verse, made it in reggae style. With her daughter and performed at the blind auditions. On this day, I took with me my beloved hedgehog Hedgehog, which her grandmother gave her during the summer holidays. She was not particularly fond of soft toys, in this respect it was difficult for her to please. But the hedgehog fell in love. Now he sleeps with him, carries him everywhere. For some reason, she believed that she would bring her good luck here too, and so it happened. Which we are very happy about.

On the project, Dasha calmly said that she had vision problems. She wears glasses from an early age and is not complex. She thinks they suit her. And there is. Unfortunately, we learned late that she could see poorly. It happened when she was a year and three months old. We noticed that I began to look at everything up close, for example, an ant on a walk. In our children’s clinic at that time there was no ophthalmologist, we went to another city to see a doctor, and we were told that Dasha had high congenital myopia (the image is formed not on the retina of the eye, but in front of her. – Approx. “Antenna”), set the vision minus 17. Then we got an appointment at the institute to a famous professor. He said: “Mommy, you have to go with your daughter through life. She will hardly be able to ride a bicycle. ” But Dasha studied in a specialized kindergarten using apparatus, and her visual acuity improved. And now he rides not only a bicycle, but also a skateboard! He studies in an ordinary gymnasium in the second grade, however, sits on the first desk. And she wears glasses because the lenses get in her way. But maybe, when he gets older, he will switch to them. Dasha, although she sings, dreams of becoming an investigator. The desire arose suddenly. I watched the series “Snooper” with me on Channel One and asked: “Why does my aunt find out everything? Is she a policeman? ” I told her that the main character is an investigator. Dasha replied that she was interested in such a profession.

– The older sister of Mariam Diana participated in the first season of the children’s “Voice”, – says her mother Inga. – My husband and I teach vocals, our whole family is musical. But Mariam never wanted to sing. She was always very flexible, so at the age of four they sent her to a sports school for rhythmic gymnastics. When she unsuccessfully fell and damaged the meniscus, I had to quit this occupation. Now, thanks to her plasticity, she dances well, which helps to perform. Diana and Mariam have an age difference of four years. When the eldest got into the “Voice”, the youngest practically grew up behind the scenes. She said that she would not sing, that she did not want to suffer as much as her sister. But then she showed a desire. Several years ago, on the STS channel, there was a project called “Two Voices”, in which parents and children performed, I went to it with my eldest. There they found out that there was also a youngest daughter, and dad was a singer, and they called them too. As a result, we split up, I began to participate with Marusya (as we call Mariam at home), and my husband – with Diana. In duels we were pushed against each other. Diana always won, Maroussia was jealous of this, and then the eldest won the fight with her father, and the youngest was upset. Since then, she began to study, work (Mariam – finalist of the children’s “New Wave – 2018”, winner of the first prize of the “Variety Star” competition, Grand Prix in Italy, winner of the “Country, Sing!”, Competition “Golden Voice of Russia”. . “Antennas”). She really enjoys participating in contests. At first she was worried and did not take the first places, but in recent years she wants the Grand Prix all the time, the first is no longer interesting to her. Maruska is studying in the sixth grade. It is difficult to combine school with music. She is sent to contests all the time. Once there was a funny incident – I called the director and happily inform him: “Larisa Yurievna, we got the grand prix!” And she replies: “Stop dancing already, do math.” I realized that she was happy about the victory, but from time to time we do not have time and then we catch up. Mariam is fond of filming covers of songs every day, sending me to watch, posting on Instagram. It’s fashionable now. She is also trying to write melodies herself.

This year, six more of my students got into the “Voice”, last year – five. To perform well there, you must first go through many competitions and win several times so that the child has confidence. I always tell the children: do not think about whether they will turn to you or not, just sing from the heart.

All members of the jury call Sophia nothing more than “hurricane”, “fire”, “typhoon”. Sofia has been dancing since the age of two, and individual vocals since the age of three. The parents decided to send their daughter to the teachers, having seen how the baby at any holiday carries her toy mini-grand piano to the center of the room and begins to sing and dance. All those present immediately fell under her charm and said: “You have a special child!” This feature was first noticed in the perinatal center, where after birth the baby spent a month with her mother. Sofia is a long-awaited child in the Tikhomirov family, parents have dreamed of a baby for nine years.

“The newborn child smiled at the doctors, listened to the speech, followed their actions with his eyes, and this is not typical at this age,” recalls the girl’s mother, Larisa Tikhomirova. – The doctors, when discharging us, said that they had never had such a funny baby. Later, when we were at sea, my daughter went on stage in a cafe, danced and sang what she heard on TV, not in the least embarrassed. Every evening we returned to the room with flowers from random spectators. It is impossible to stop her – she dances and sings everywhere: in lines, on the bus, on the street. The first time Sofia got on the show “Best of all” by Maxim Galkin at the age of five. Not at all embarrassed, she gave away all the family secrets that she wants a sister or brother, but we have a small apartment, she advised Philip Kirkorov to rewrite the song “My Bunny”. And a year ago we moved to Moscow, where my husband was offered a good job. We can say that Sofiyka’s dream has come true – after all, when my daughter saw the performance of her favorite artists – Loboda, Orbakaite – on TV, she always asked: “Where do they live? I should be there, I will also be an artist. ” Now Sofia dreams that dad will get better sooner and be able to earn money for a big house, where she will have a room with glass walls.
