Dmitry Khramkov was born April 9, 1979 in the city of Samara. Since childhood, he loved listening to music, and his grandfather, who played the button accordion well, instilled in him a love for the instrument and taught him to play it. His parents, noticing their son’s talent, sent him to study at a music school.

After graduation, Dmitry successfully enters the Samara State Pedagogical University and ends up with the famous music teacher Alla Mikhailovna Kats. During his studies, Dmitry repeatedly became a laureate of international competitions.

After graduating from university, Dmitry dreams of starting a solo career, but for this he needed start-up capital, which he did not have at that time. Getting a job as a security guard to one of the city restaurants, Khramkov begins his career.

Having earned the required amount, he records many soundtracks for his solo concert program, with which he begins performing in the same restaurant. His performances were a success, he became popular and in demand.

In 2005, Dmitry Khramkov met with his old and good friend Sergei Voitenko, who invited him to team up to create music in a new style. Dmitry liked this proposal, and the guys began working together.

This is how the duet “Bayan Mix” was born. With their original performance, the group quickly won the love of the audience. Their audience includes children, youth, and the older generation of listeners. The duo's repertoire includes world-famous classical works (such as "Flight of the Bumblebee"), pop hits, melodies from favorite movies, folk tunes (“Czardash”, “Lezginka”), dance compositions (“Tango”), as well as our own original works.

The conquest of Moscow began with the participation of the Bayan Mix duet in a concert for the G8 Summit. Ekaterina Shavrina advised the concert director to turn his attention to young, charming and talented guys who masterfully and passionately perform their works on button accordions.

With her “light hand” they became participants in various holiday concerts and television programs broadcast on leading federal channels(Channel One, TRC "Russia", STS, TVC), such as "Full House", "Funny People", "Izmailovsky Park", "You Are Allowed to Laugh", "Life is Beautiful" and others.

The duo was invited to international festivals: “Slavic Bazaar” in Vitebsk, “Yurmalina”, “Southern Nights of Kuban” in Krasnodar.

The guys managed to film and in an episode of the feature film “Carnival Night – 2” famous director Eldar Ryazanov.

The touring life of Dmitry and Sergei was quite eventful. With a busy touring schedule, they toured with concerts not only throughout Russia, but throughout Europe. Foreign spectators warmly received the artists, giving them prolonged applause.

However, relatively recently, Dmitry Khramkov started thinking about a solo career and gave up his place as the leading accordion player in a duet Sergei Kotkov. As Sergei Voitenko states, Dmitry continues to participate in the life of Bayan Mix, but gives priority to his new projects.

Currently he performs solo at various festivals and television shows, periodically collaborates with other performers, creating joint performances. One of his last collaborations was a performance with the duet “Lyubanya”.

Brave performers are recognized from the first chords in concert halls in France, Belgium, Germany and other countries near and far abroad.

Voitenko Sergei Ivanovich in 2018 turned 45 years old. His native land, the village of Bogdanovka, is located in the Samara region. The boy's acquaintance with the button accordion began at the age of 7, when the child was enrolled in the Bogdanov Music School.

Successful training created the prerequisites for entering a music school, and Sergei continued his education in Samara in the accordion class. From the age of ten, the young musician takes part in various music competitions. Already at this time, Seryozha received many prizes and awards.

Then there was training at Samara University. His skill grew, and Sergei more than once became a laureate of major competitions. At the same time, they won first prizes twice - first in 1992 in Ulyanovsk, and two years later in Voronezh.

The talent did not dry up, by 2000 the guy completed his postgraduate studies at the Academy of Music, after which he was hired as a junior researcher at the department of musical instruments at his alma mater Samara.

Author's works of Sergei Voitenko

Sergei became interested in selflessly composing his own compositions while working within the walls of his native university. His "February Sketches" were met with unanimous approval from the musical circle of critics, and the accordion-orchestral elegy “Revelation” generally became famous in Europe and was published in several countries. This work is still played by many famous musicians.

Sergei most often performed with a button accordion to orchestral accompaniment. And already in 2000 he created a wonderful quartet "Non-stop", where his friends entered. The quartet became a successful creative team, becoming a laureate of many domestic and international competitions.

Two years later, the restless musician himself organizes a creative festival of button accordion players with international status. The love for the instrument gave rise to the pompous name of the competition - “Vivat, Bayan!”

They also added an impromptu addition to the title "Sergei Voitenko and his friends". The festival initially started in 2003 in Samara. And the brainchild has already gained international status in Moscow, where in 2009 the competition earned a stage Kremlin Palace. Then many Russian pop stars performed there.

Sergei also repeatedly wrote music for songs that later became famous. Yes, the song is performed Denis Maidanov and based on the words of Evgeniy Muravyov, she won the “Chanson of the Year 2015”, and later won the “Road Radio” award and even received an invitation to the “Golden Gramophone”.

The creative impulses of Sergei Voitenko are multifaceted. He has already created several creative groups, and the most touching thing is that he happily conducts master classes for musical children.

The history and creative rise of the Bayan Mix duet

Initially, Sergei created this duet with Dmitry Khramkov. The friends developed successfully, becoming laureates of numerous music festivals. Is it true, concert costumes The guys were very funny, their jackets were decorated with huge patch pockets, and they had huge caps on their heads.

She was the first to advise the guys to change their outfits Ekaterina Shavrina. She kindly criticized the ridiculous clothes, and immediately invited him to perform in her upcoming solo program.

Sergei later often recalled this moment with laughter. Apparently, also because a colossal takeoff began with him. The duet “Bayan Mix” began to thunder throughout the country, and soon reached the international level.

The composition changed, Sergei Kotkov began working with Sergei. “Bayan Mix” is still loved, recognized, and looked forward to meeting. Everyone has their own secret of popularity, and in many ways it is just plain luck.

In the case of the story of the creative duo “Bayan Mix”, one cannot fail to mention the enormous capacity for work, determination and, of course, talent of Sergei Voitenko! The desire to create and improve oneself has borne fruit.

Reader questions:

Semyon Semenov 14:58 01/19/2016

Hello Sergey. Tell us how you started your concert activity. After all, it is very difficult for a beginning artist to gather an audience for his concert in a city where no one knows him or knows his repertoire.

Hello! There will be many surprises. One of them is guests from Moscow, our friends - singer Utah and comedian Yuri Askarov. But that's not all... Our Samara artist friends will also be there, but who exactly is still a secret.

Good afternoon Sergey, Please tell us about the beginning of your creative activity. Who believed in you? And tell us about a spontaneous concert or performance at the Grushinsky Festival; this happened a long time ago. And one more question: is the song about a guy from the outback somewhat autobiographical?

Good afternoon, Maria! First of all, my grandmother believed in me, then my teacher Alla Mikhailovna Kats and my mother and father believed in me. I am grateful to them for my fate.
There were no spontaneous concerts at the Grushinsky Festival. I came there specifically to perform, but, of course, all the concerts were improvisational in nature. I really like the atmosphere of the Grushinsky festival, the spirit itself. Come in the summer, I will perform again.
Regarding the song about a guy from the outback, I don’t understand which one you mean. But in essence, it is so. Most famous people in our country are people from the provinces.

Oksana 13:07 01/19/2016

Hello, Sergey! Who was your first accordion teacher and do you communicate now?

Hello! The first teacher at the music school was Yuri Konstantinovich Sorokin. He's alive and well! And I wish him long life. You can see him on February 10 at our anniversary concert at the Samara Philharmonic. Starts at 19:00. Tickets are already on sale. Phone number for inquiries in Samara: 207-07-13 (14)

Ekaterina 12:59 01/19/2016

I know that you starred in different films. Which ones exactly, and how difficult is it for a musician to also be an actor? Do you like it?

Good afternoon Of course I like it. After all, many artists star in films and TV series. This reveals another facet of their talent. I starred in Eldar Aleksandrovich Ryazanov’s film “Carnival Night-2”. It was a great honor to work with such a master. It was a pleasure to work with him. He is a professional with a capital P and a person with an even greater letter. It’s a pity that such people leave early. We also starred with Dima in the series “Brother and Sister” with the famous director Alexander Baranov, who shot the series “Plot” with Sergei Bezrukov, “Rodnya”. The series is still waiting its turn. Perhaps he will soon appear on Channel One.

Margarita 12:32 01/19/2016

We are planning to send our child to a music school. My husband really wants his son to take accordion class. How does an accordion differ from a button accordion? Are these different classes at a music school? And don't you teach yourself? Maybe you hold some master classes for beginners or give private lessons?

Good afternoon I can’t say that the button accordion and the accordion are fundamentally different; they are related instruments. But I always recommend more accordion, because it is faster and more convenient for a small child to learn. And the button accordion has more possibilities, in my opinion. I provide private lessons and master classes for professionals and beginners (both in person and via Skype). My Skype: sergeyvoytenko. Link to the page on VKontakte - vk.com/sergeyvoytenko. Contact me, I will help you.

Do you play at corporate events? I would like to take you to my Sister’s wedding and a work holiday, how much will it cost?

Guest 12:19 01/19/2016

Why do so few girls play the accordion?

Good afternoon It’s just that the accordion looks more familiar on fragile women’s shoulders, although it is just as heavy, and sometimes heavier, than the button accordion. Just a tradition.

Tatyana 12:19 01/19/2016

Hello, which Russian pop star are you friends with?

Good afternoon A lot of them. Well, for example, Utah, Yuri Askarov, Yuri Galtsev, Gena Vetrov, Oleg Mikhailovich Gazmanov, Rodion Gazmanov, Denis Maidanov, Nikolai Rastorguev and so on. Why are you interested in this?

Semyon, Samara 12:18 01/19/2016

Hello! Why doesn’t the program “Play Harmony” come to us in Samara? Could you help with this?

Good afternoon Okay, I'll try to call Zakhar Zavolokin.

Ekaterina 11:23 01/19/2016

Sergey, good afternoon! We know that you have a wonderful family! Are you planning to create a dynasty of accordion players? :)

Hello! Thanks a lot! Man proposes, but God disposes. I never tried to force my children. How will it be! If they want, there will be a dynasty. How are you doing with this?

Good afternoon I won 11 international competitions. The idea to create a festival and competition “Vivat button accordion!” came because I myself attended a lot of competitions abroad. As a friendly person, I have a lot of friends who are musicians and button accordion players. I wanted to show their art to the audience of the Samara region. And this is how we have been for 14 years We introduce our listeners and spectators to the work of great performers. It is the festival that allows us to do this, because otherwise these artists would hardly come to us in Russia on tour. There is a group on VKontakte, come and follow the news of the festival - vk.com /vivatbayan There is also a competition website: vivatbayan.com

Anna 23:33 01/18/2016

Hello! Who is your idol? Who did you look up to on the path to success?

Good afternoon As an accordion player, I was guided by Alexander Sklyarov. As a composer and producer - Igor Matvienko. As an artist, I now focus on the famous foreign singer and showman Robbie Williams.

Veronica Ilyina 20:35 01/18/2016

Hello! Do you often visit Samara? or more and more in Moscow? don’t you forget your small homeland?))) what do you love about Samara?

Good afternoon I live in two cities. I have many friends both in Samara and Moscow. My mother, father and relatives live in Samara. I also have a lot of interesting things to do in Samara. That's why I don't leave her. Although I admit honestly, Moscow gives me much more opportunities as an artist.

Victor Toyushev 20:33 01/18/2016

Good afternoon Vivat, accordion has been held for many years in a row. what will surprise you this year? What kind of stars are you preparing?

Good afternoon This year we decided to invite for the second time the team that we already had. This is the Gelato quartet from Canada. These are driven guys who simply “blew up” the entire Samara region in 2012. Therefore, it was decided to invite them again. Their concert will take place in May.
In March there will be a concert by a young jazz performer from Moscow - Sergei Luran and his trio. Also, the finalist of the “Voice 2015” project will take part in this concert, but who exactly is still a secret.
On February 10, as part of the festival, the anniversary concert “Bayan MIX” will take place. All festival concerts will be held not only in Samara, but also in the cities of the Samara region.

Vladimir Viktorovich 20:31 01/18/2016

Greetings! Do you plan to promote young talent? Who are you currently producing and what projects are you preparing?

Good afternoon I am also producing, as before, three projects - “Bayan MIX”, “Matrekha” and “Bride”. And the young talent that I have now undertaken to produce is Sergei Voitenko, who began to compose songs and sing. These songs are now actively heard on the radio. You can follow the fate of the young talent: vk.com/sergeyvoytenko and on other social networks.

Marina 20:30 01/18/2016

Good afternoon As a child, I also studied at a music school, and in a regular school I was teased. Like, I'm a nerd. Have you encountered such bullies? Were you teased at school? And what do they say about your success now?

Good afternoon At school they didn’t tease me, but they didn’t take me seriously either, because when I was studying, musicians were also considered nerds. But because I was stubborn and had a fairly strong character, I became one of the people. And of course, now everyone with whom I studied respects me.

Semyon 20:28 01/18/2016

Hello! Have you dreamed of becoming a musician since childhood? Or did it come with time? Still, playing the button accordion is not the most popular in the world of music? Did you want to switch to pop guitar or drums?

Good afternoon, Semyon! You are right that the button accordion is not the most popular instrument. But since I am a stubborn person, and once I take on something, I will see it through to the end. This happened with the button accordion.
