When skeptical gentlemen claim that folk art has finally decayed, then they need to give weighty counterarguments. Or, instead of objections, invite them to the concert of Natalya Gennadievna Bannova.
Under the city of Gorky
Over the past decades, tangible changes have taken place in the everyday life of the Russian population. In the old years, songs were sung at the festive table, which sounded on radio and television. And nowadays I don't feel like singing compositions of benchmarks with a glass of vodka. The famous performer of Russian folk songs Natalya Bannova received her first vocal lessons at home. In those days, when relatives gathered at the table and started "On the wild steppes of Transbaikalia" or "Oh, the viburnum is blooming."
The future People's Artist of the Russian Federation was born on November 16, 1957 in an ordinary Soviet family. Parents lived in a closed settlement Arzamas-75, which was located near the city of Gorky. His father worked as a bulldozer driver, and his mother worked as a crane operator in a construction trust. Natalia studied well at school. Starting from the sixth grade, she participated in all city competitions and amateur art shows.
On the professional stage
The vocal abilities of the young singer became known both in the regional center and in Moscow. After the next review competition, Bannova received an official offer to study in Moscow. She received her higher musical education at the famous Gnessin School. After receiving her diploma, Natalya began to work on assignment at the Ivanovo Philharmonic. In 1980 she was invited as a soloist to the legendary Kuban Cossack Choir. The work of this group is known all over the world.
Possessing a unique range and timbre of her voice, Natalya Bannova performed the most complex vocal and musical compositions. In 1995, she was invited to be a soloist of the Central Orchestra of the Russian Ministry of Defense. From that moment on, she permanently lives in Moscow. The stage career was successful. Together with the musical group, she visited all the cultural capitals of Europe and America. She has seen a lot in distant countries and believes that there is nothing better than the native side.
Personal life score
Natalia Gennadievna Bannova generously shares her experience with young performers. She teaches the basics of solo singing at the Gnessin College. Conducts seminars at the Department of Pop Singing at the Institute of Contemporary Art. It is impossible to overestimate its contribution to the formation and development of national culture. There is one serious gap in the biography of the great singer. There is not a word about personal life in it.
Natalya Gennadievna has a nice dacha in the Moscow region. In the garden, she grows not only vegetables, but also took a place for her favorite roses. She knows how and loves to cook deliciously. I am always glad to receive guests in my home. Sisters often come to her. He tries not to answer questions about her husband.
