Let us add that the Zakharovo estate is famous for the fact that it was here that the poet Alexander Pushkin spent his childhood years. It was in this estate that nanny Arina Rodionovna told the genius her fairy tales.
Co-creation is a word that can describe not only creative collaboration, but also unity in the family and even a common search for answers to the most important life questions, from the meaning of our existence to the fate of the country. The festival program was developed by writer Zakhar Prilepin, as well as producers Eduard Boyakov and Dmitry Vadimovich. Provided great support in organizing the festival museum-reserve A.S. Pushkin.

How to get to the Zakharovo estate
Zakharovo is located just an hour by train from the Belorussky station (Moscow region, Odintsovo district, Zakharovo railway station).
DOSSIER
The "Tradition" festival is held under the auspices of the Russian Artistic Union, which unites artists and cultural figures, independent creative leaders of different directions on the basis of traditional values. The event is supported by the Russian Ministry of Culture, the Moscow Region Ministry of Culture, and the Odintsovo District Administration.
On July 8, the Day of Family, Love and Fidelity, the annual Tradition festival was held in the Zakharovo estate near Moscow. It was organized by the Russian Art Union (RUS), which previously included director Eduard Boyakov and writer Zakhar Prilepin.
The Tradition festival was a great success. Families, young people, wonderful musical and dance groups, were present famous figures art. The Zakharovo estate itself seems to have been created for such a cultural holiday - wide picturesque meadows, birch forests, a lake. Russian space, where you want to stay indefinitely.
True, it was pouring rain all day, but that’s what summer is like—you can’t scare the Russian people. The festival turned out to be so bright and multifaceted that the participants bravely hid under umbrellas until late at night and tried to catch all the events - lectures, musician performances and master classes, round dances and square dances, performances, poetry readings.
Eduard Boyakov: Tradition is the ability to be simultaneously with the past and the future
One of the main organizers of “Tradition” is the director Eduard Boyakov- explained in an interview with Constantinople that the place for the festival was not chosen by chance: Alexander Pushkin, who personifies the Russian tradition, once lived here. In addition, a hundred meters from the estate is the Church of Saints Peter and Fevronia, patrons of the family holiday.
“A person who studies should study and rejoice. A person who rejoices, who dances, who sings, who dances, who dances in circles, must understand that this also has meaning.” This is the idea of contrasting the boring routine work that many of us often drag ourselves through, he added.
The director noted that understanding tradition includes roots, the need to relate to one’s life path creatively. “We are not animals, we are not flowers, we are not trees that grow, and thank God they are pleasing to the eye. We creative people. We are obliged to perform a creative act. We have a responsibility to transform, we have a responsibility to grow.”
On the one hand, in creativity there is a personal, amazing avant-garde experience. On the other hand, as soon as the experience of innovations begins to be contrasted with the traditions of ancestors, a person loses orientation in space. “I will be torn apart, I will become just a grain of sand, albeit dreaming of becoming significant, egoistically very determined, but still empty. This is emptiness. We must understand that there was a lot of things before us and a lot of things after us. What happens after us depends on this moment. Depends on the music we play, depends on the words we say. Depends on how we build relationships with children, on the values we serve, which we try, as artists, to transform into artistic images and pass it on to people. Tradition is the ability to be simultaneously with the past and the future. And under no circumstances should we contrast one with the other.”
Tradition is salvation for Russia and Russian culture, Boyakov concluded.
Z Ahar Prilepin: Russia can offer the world blooming complexity
Much was said about culture, including with reference to the Russian conservative thinker Konstantin Leontiev. When asked what Russia can offer the world, the writer answered: “Blooming complexity.”
“She offers the defense of Christian values to the world. It offers opposition to unification to the world. It offers the world victory over demons, demons and terrible world evil in almost every century. She, in addition to writing great books, makes excellent music, is also a good fighter. Sacrificially, humbly, mercilessly and recklessly.”
The fact that in the West they propose “legislation for 48 different genders,” gender confusion, etc. is not a flourishing complexity, but unification, when the whole world becomes the same. And as we know, everything is the same only after death - decay and convulsions.
« And in the sphere of the fight against the pan-European hundred-headed monster, which is going to create horror every century, we are generally in authority. That's why they don't like us. What else should we offer? You know, no one will say: “What should Estonia offer to the world?” So we are carrying out the “Tradition”. You can even look at the festival program itself. This is what we offer to the world.",” stated Prilepin.
Interesting lectures were also given by Alexey Varlamov, German Sadulayev, Andrey Novikov-Lanskoy and many others. There was also a place for poetry. Archpriests read poems Artemy Vladimirov And Alexey Shmelev, and Svetlana Kekova.
Music and traditions
I was very pleased with the musical part of the festival. People were delighted with the Ichthys ensemble. “In our time of militant postmodernism, when all meanings and concepts are blurred, tradition is what resists this chaos, preserving the sanity of existence. This is more relevant now than ever.And thank God that every year, society understands more and more the importance of today's holiday. True, they celebrate it in different ways and it does not always work out successfully. “In my opinion, this festival is just a successful attempt to celebrate this holiday in an adequate way,”— the ensemble’s lead singer noted in a comment to Constantinople Adrian Huseynov.
Wonderful songs were sung by Tina Kuznetsova, the Kalinov Most group, and the ensembles National holiday" and "Cossack path". Between performances the young guys danced incendiary lezginka and invited beautiful ladies to dance.
I was especially pleased that at the festival there was unique opportunity meet a musician, saxophonist Sergei Letov, who gave a lecture about Sergei Kuryokhin and performed with the singer Tina Georgievskaya, and then with the musician Alexander F. Sklyar.
In an interview with Tsargrad, Alexander Sklyar noted that the venue itself is important. This is a wide area with picturesque lawns, which allows you to organize a truly multicultural festival, with literary, musical, and theatrical parts, as well as master classes in handicrafts.
Sklyar noted that if a musician plays consciously, this is the tradition, it is woven into his work. “Because the point is not in what genre a musician performs, but in how he understands himself in this country, in this world. My deep conviction: even if you started completely apart from traditions, let’s say, in the style of rock and roll, which came to us from the West, you will inevitably come to our tradition.”
When we sing in Russian, we carry Russian meanings, and they cannot be found apart from traditions, the musician emphasized.
Artistic part
The artist also took part in the festival Peter Sklyar, which visualizes Russian proverbs and sayings. This component our tradition, our heritage.
“In my opinion, this is very important. This allows us to maintain a connection with our roots and allows us to feel a little more stable in this world, especially when there are many distractions and false roads. It’s very easy to go astray now if you are not anchored in basic moral guidelines.”
In order not to get lost, you need to know Russian proverbs, epics and legends, songs, dances, the artist added. “Our culture in this regard is rich and inexhaustible.”
Sklyar supported the idea of celebrating Family Day, love and fidelity. “I am for the family, because there is strength in it. Here the proverb comes to mind: a tree has strong roots. And the roots are our family, our ancestors, thanks to whom we are alive. And we must give life to a new generation and try to educate it correctly.”
To sum up, we can say with confidence: the festival was a great success. It is very interesting for both adults and children (for the latter there are master classes, performances and fairy tales).
Be sure to come next year.
