RAM. Russian Academy of Music named after

ANSWER TO VENUS: I am the same acting teacher who directed your son Ruslan Gainutdinov-3. I gave it the rating it deserves. They probably didn’t tell you, but before the winter session in the 1st year, my sister Ruslana visited, she thought that I graded it unfairly, but she saw how he worked (at that moment Ruslan and his classmates were in the audience) and agreed that the grade faithful. My sister is a director, and this is her profession, so she understands this. In addition, at each lesson, all students showed 5-6 observations or parodies or sketches, Ruslan showed one (!) and the same one, it didn’t work for him, and he showed it again. Regarding money for grades: I categorically do not accept this, because our profession assumes that when we go on stage we show skill. And everything is visible. As a result, I would be ashamed if my student with a grade of 4 or 5 could not do anything on stage. One more thing - Ruslan didn’t tell you that I gave him a stage speech. And the final grade for the prose passage that I did with him is 5, because I worked with Ruslan on it for a very long time and painstakingly. Let me add that I worked for free, above and beyond my workload. I did the same with other students, because I love my profession and it gives me pleasure when the guys open up in a new way. I have many students whom I prepared for further admission and this was also free, because in my head “but they are my children.” Regarding the dismissal: I told the director about leaving in February (!) and immediately collected the entire 1st year and announced it. And the head girl who wrote the denunciation (Ruslan didn’t tell you this either) - over the course of a year, she attended 20 percent of my classes and that of other teachers too. Her position, or rather what she had to do, was performed by others. I felt sorry for her and gave her a 3, although I should have given her a bad rating. Also regarding my unprofessionalism: it was I who initiated the fact that room 32 turned into auditorium 32. I brought a huge amount of props and costumes, established relationships with our carpenters and electricians, and they made the scenery for me, for free. The guys and I hung curtains and curtains in classroom 32 at our own expense, brought in additional wardrobes and a sofa, and bought music speakers. And all because I wanted the learning process to be interesting. And lastly, I haven’t worked at Gnesinka for a year (by choice), but in April I was at a concert of the class in which Ruslan is studying (he probably didn’t tell you either), so, as usual, I recorded the acting performances again errors. And then I told Ruslan a lot of things, in the hope that he would find it useful. As you understand, I said this for free throughout my consultation. Why did I write here? Yes, because I am a good teacher. And I value my name.

The Gnessin Russian Academy of Music is one of the most famous and popular music universities in Russia and abroad. The Academy was founded by the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation. Within its walls grow musicians and vocalists of various profiles, conductors, producers, sound engineers and other representatives of the musical arts.

At the end of the 19th century, the three Gnessin sisters - Evgenia, Maria and Elena - founded a private music school. February 15, 1895 is considered the official date of the establishment of music educational institutions named after the Gnessins.

The school was popular, developed, acquired state status, and now Gnesinka is the most famous music university. For many years, the head of the current academy was Elena Fabianovna Gnesina, who dedicated her life to the formation of the educational institution.

Russian Academy of Music named after. Gnessins is the country's leading university for training musicians, singers, conductors, sound engineers, musicologists, producers, and artistic directors.

Teachers of RAM named after. The Gnesins wrote an open letter to the Minister of Culture of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Medinsky. The document was published on the university website.

The letter confirms the faithfulness of the intention of the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Education to transfer music classes in special schools (such as the Gnessin MSMSH, the Central Music School at the Moscow State Conservatory named after P. I. Tchaikovsky and others) into the category of an elective during the education of children from the first to the fourth grade. Thus, from the point of view of a number of professors of the Gnessin Russian Academy of Music, it is worth teaching children music professionally only starting from the fifth grade.

Next week the site will publish an exclusive interview with the director of MSSMSH named after. Gnesins Mikhail Khokhlov on this topic.

Below is the text of an open letter from teachers of the Russian Academy of Music named after. Gnesins.

To the Minister of Culture of the Russian Federation
V. R. Medinsky

Dear Vladimir Rostislavovich!

We were prompted to contact you by speeches that appeared in the media on the issue of music education. These speeches acquire a rather aggressive character and at the same time indicate a lack of competence in the field of legislation of some individuals who are capable of influencing the opinions of both the musical community and government officials.

We consider it necessary to inform you about the existing discussion field.

After reading the article, there is indignation at its speculative format, since the article talks about “music schools”, makes a statement about the destruction of the “initial system of training students of music schools,” which immediately makes one think about the fate of almost five thousand art schools, while the raised the problem concerns only a few schools, which were always called “secondary special music schools” (11-year schools), the importance of which cannot be overestimated, which were always elite and taught especially gifted children.

What is this – incorrectness or a cheap trick to win over even those who are not used to delving into the intricacies of the problems being discussed?

Opinions expressed both in this article and at a press conference (on the same occasion), held on December 2, 2014 at the press center of the information agency “National News Service” press conference on the topic: “The Ministry of Education against gifted children or Why Russia deprived of a full musical education? cause far ambiguous attitudes and not shared by all musicians.

As for primary music education (the first stage of music education), it, as before, can be obtained at the Children's Art School (thanks to the Russian Ministry of Culture for preserving them). The next two levels are still functioning – secondary and higher education. The three-stage structure of domestic music education has been preserved.

On education in secondary specialized music schools (SSMS).

More recently (until 2003), these institutions were ordinary secondary schools, in which music subjects were added to the regular school programs. Thanks to the efforts of the Ministry of Culture of Russia, a standard of secondary vocational education was developed and put into effect for these institutions (2004), thanks to which graduates began to receive a diploma of secondary vocational education upon completion rather than a certificate. Currently, secondary specialized music schools implement the 2011 standard of secondary vocational education with a training period of 10 years and 10 months. At the same time, children also master general education subjects.

Yes, the new Federal Law “On Education in the Russian Federation” imposes new requirements on the structure of the education system. But they make it possible to preserve the content of the education that exists today in secondary specialized music schools.

About primary music education, which can be obtained without any prejudice in secondary specialized institutions.

The Federal Law “On Education in the Russian Federation” (Part 11 of Article 83) specifically for such institutions for gifted children in the field of arts in the primary general education program (i.e. from grades 1 to 4) obliges the federal state educational standard to provide for “requirements for ensuring conditions for students to acquire knowledge, skills and abilities in the field of the chosen type of art, experience in creative activity and to prepare students for receiving professional education in the field of arts.” A clock is provided for this as standard. ( Currently, the Russian Ministry of Education and Science is making these changes to the standard of primary general education, which will ensure the existence of musical subjects is by no means “at bird’s rights”).

On secondary professional music education in secondary specialized institutions.

Part 9 of Article 83 of the Federal Law “On Education in the Russian Federation” for the education of gifted children from the 5th grade (after completion of the primary general education program - grades 1-4) provides for integrated educational programs that integrate: programs of basic general education (5- 9 grades), secondary general education (grades 10-11) - with a program of secondary vocational music education - from grades 5 to 11. Hence the period of study for this integrated program, which is 6 years 10 months.

What exactly does the draft Federal State Educational Standard for secondary vocational education in the specialty 53.02.03 instrumental performance (by type of instrument) with a training period of 6 years and 10 months provide, developed in accordance with the legislation?

1. Allows you to make selections, regulated by educational organization, not only to the first level of education (1st grade), but also to the next (5th grade), which to a greater extent protects the child’s right to choose a profession at a more conscious age (not at 6-7, but at 10 years of age), and provides the educational organization with additional opportunities to form a student population not only in the first grade, but also in subsequent ones, for example, accepting gifted children from other regions.

2. To establish, at the discretion of the educational organization itself, the content of the educational program both at the level of secondary vocational education, integrated with basic general and secondary general education, and at the level of primary general education, which, while remaining de jure primary general education, is de facto primary music education (due to the musical component determined by the educational organization).

The above arguments in favor of the said standard are not so much the opinion of the authors of this letter as a statement of objectively existing favorable conditions for the education of gifted children, reflected in current legislation. They are so obvious that it is simply impossible not to notice them. It seems (especially based on some statements at the said press conference) that the purpose of the speeches in the article and at the press conference in this case is not the federal state educational standard, but something else.

We are glad that our position is shared by the leaders and representatives of the Novosibirsk, Rostov, Petrozavodsk, Ural Conservatories, the Ufa Academy of Arts named after Zagir Ismagilov, the Krasnoyarsk Academy of Music and Theater, to whom we express our gratitude for their cooperation.
