Mathematical model.
Mathematical model.
Dzhazmena Igor Butman invited to the Kremlin twice to play for
The US president - somehow in one of private conversations Bill Clinton has named
It "the best saxophonist of the world". And to that Igor lives and works in
Russia, we are obliged to visa service of embassy of the USA, which in due time
Has given up to Oksana Butman in possibility to leave to the husband in New York.
Natalia Belogolovtseva: Oksana, you model with the mathematical
Education?
Oksana Butman: I have ended fizmatshkolu at the Moscow State University where has arrived
After the ninth class, having won the regional mathematical Olympic Games.
I come from the city of Kuvandyk of the Orenburg area: after transfer
In school it was found out, what is it a boarding school and me it is necessary to move
To Moscow.
N.B.: your schoolmates, probably, were the presents
"botanikami"?
Island B: presented children from all country, very much There studied
The original. Came across both "metallisty", and di-dzhei, and fartsovshchiki.
Recently I was at a meeting of graduates of different years. The few, to
To regret, have connected a life with a science - more programmers,
Businessmen: the president of MDM-bank Andrey Melnichenko, the deputy
The head of the Russian Open Society "United Power Systems" Michael Abyzov. I, to tell the truth, worried,
That, having devoted a life to a family, has not justified hopes of the teachers.
N.B.: that is have gone on mehmat the Moscow State University?
Island B: I did not represent myself the scientist-mathematician, and to go on
Distribution somewhere would not like to teach to me. Therefore
Has entered MAI. Told, that there very interesting
Student's life, and distribution - across Moscow and area.
Has received the diploma of the engineer-system engineering, specialisation "Test
Systems of flying machines ".
N.B.: how you has managed to get to modelling business?
Island B: On a third year we with the girl-friend have heard by radio
The announcement of competition in modelling agency also have decided to try.
Then this business only just began. I very much was pleasant
To one lady - to the private agent, she then half a year searched for me,
Knowing only, that I - "Oksana from MAI". When has found, has offered
The contract in England provided that I will quickly learn language (at school at
Me there was a German). I have issued the academic holiday and have left in
London. I can not tell, that career there has developed successfully. Me
Long persuaded to be cut, and it has then appeared, that my new
The image is not pleasant to agency. Not waiting, while hair otrastut,
I have returned Moscow. Has received the invitation to work in the USA and in
France, but new academic year approached, and I have resolved
To return to institute. Continued to co-operate with Red stars,
Having warned agency, that foreign contracts do not approach me.
I acted in film much, worked on Yudashkin's displays and Grekova. To me
Has carried: in modelling business at me were only professional
Relations, I have not faced any dirt.
N.B.: you studied and worked?
Island B: On a last year me have invited in small bank -
The analyst with mathematical bents was required. I have solved
To try and for a year has got huge experience: worked and in
Credit department, both in accounts department, and in the interbank market.
It has appeared, from such job I receive the greatest
Pleasure. It wanted career growth. I have passed in bank
"The Russian credit" where me have noticed, have estimated and have begun
To advance.
Job should be left, when I have married for Igor and waited
The child.
N.B.: but it already absolutely other history. As you have met with
Igor?
Island B: Models then still there was a little, all on a kind, were on friendly terms with
Representatives of show business. Sergey Mazaev, the leader of group
"The moral code", during any moment has started to look after me,
Has invited to jazz festival and has acquainted with Igor, which
For the first time has arrived to act to Russia after a five years' break (it
Then veins in the USA). I can not tell, that Igor has made on me
Impression. However, we talked all minutes five.
N.B.: Igor has again left in States?
Island B: Yes, it made there the big success, worked with superstars
Groverom Washington, Harry Burton, Petom Metini. Coming in
Moscow, always stopped at Sergey Mazaeva, with which we
Were on friendly terms, therefore our acquaintance proceeded. From time to time
Igor called to me from America.
So proceeded year two. Until Igor has not invited
Me on the next Moscow concert. Before the following
Composition he suddenly declared, that product is written "for
The person most expensive and close to it "" the Waltz also is called for
Oksanas ". To me and earlier, happened, devoted verses and songs, but that
The case has for some reason made especially strong impression. From
Excitements, not having understood, that the composition yet has not ended
(After solo Igor), I have rushed on a scene with a bunch of flowers.
It was very ridiculous.
N.B.: the waltz was followed by the hand and heart offer?
Island B: Month through two Igor has arranged to me a trip to New York on
Jazz festival together with Irina Otievoj and "Time machine".
Has come to hotel with a bouquet and has asked: "you will marry me?" I
Has solved, what is it a joke. When in couple of days he has repeated a question,
Has uncertainly murmured:
"Good, give we will try". Igor has demanded, that I immediately
Has called parents and has informed on our wedding.
N.B.: Was afraid, what will change the mind?
Island B: Probably, yes. So we also "try" seven years. The witness
On wedding there was, of course, Sergey Mazaev.
Igor's many friends tried to convict me of the mercenary
Intentions: "She simply wants to America!" Though I for that moment
Was the girl well-founded - worked in bank, had the car,
Room in Moscow and the bill on five thousand dollars. Igor's property
It was limited to two saxophones. Before our wedding it removed
Expensive apartment in New York also spent practically all, that
Earned. When looked after me, constantly did to me gifts
Also drove in restaurants. After wedding Igor joked, that "its" money I
Did not regret, and "ours" now I save. So it has turned out, that the first
Two months we lived for my salary very quite good on those
To times.
N.B.: but you were not going to to remain in Russia?
Island B: I planned to live together with the husband, though to America
Especially it was not torn. Process of official registration of papers in connection with
By surname change it was a little tightened, by the moment of reception the guest
Visas already was evident, that I am pregnant. There were some
Complications in embassy of the USA.
Our son Daniel was born in Moscow. And Igor had all
It is more and more jobs in Russia. Three years ago it was carried out it
Dream: in Moscow jazz club Le club, analogue of one has opened of
Main sights of New York - club Blue note,
Performance in which is more prestigious, than at any festival. In Le
club Igor works as the art director is the centre of a jazz life
Moscow where stars of the first size act: the best
Alto-saxophonist of world Kenni Garret, the drummer Bills Kobem,
Trumpeter Rendi Breker.
N.B.: Igor has collected the big-band in Russia?
Island B: All over the world it is accepted, that on Mondays in jazz
Clubs play big-bands. Igor tries "to maintain the reputation":
Invites to act only the best musicians - and Russian, and
The foreign. Today it became fashionable to listen to a jazz, among habitues
Club - known businessmen, politicians: the president of Alpha bank
Peter Aven, the chairman of board of directors "Alpha groups" Michael
Fridman, the chief of a medical Administrative office of the president
Sergey Mironov, Boris Nemtsov, recently quite often
Irina Kasyanov, the spouse of the prime minister calls in.
N.B.: you should conduct secular conversations with honoured guests?
Island B: It is a pleasant duty, in informal conditions they
The open and lovely people.
N.B.: Igor still goes on tour abroad?
Island B: Now it became known in jazz circles as
The organizer of tours worldwide. Goes much and carries actors
Across Russia.
Fans of a jazz are everywhere, but not everywhere there are means for
Carrying out of concerts. Such sensation, that does not notice the state
Igor's efforts on jazz popularisation in our country: on one
It has not received action from the state copecks. Igor even
Not the honoured artist of Russia, never received any
Awards.
N.B.: and for performances in the Kremlin?
Island B: the Letter of thanks from the culture Ministry.
N.B.: and why to act have invited Igor?
Island B: Igor Butman's Big-band many times acted in embassy
The USA, and the mister the ambassador were its admirer. When it was planned
Clinton visit to Moscow, first was a question of its visiting Le
club, have then decided, that is easier to Igor to arrive to the Kremlin. I
Observed of Clinton because of side scenes.
When Igor the American president has won back "Nostalgia",
Has closed eyes and has thrown back a head with enthusiastic exclamation, then
Has risen and applauded standing.
N.B.: you do not aspire to make own career?
Island B: While I cannot devote myself completely any to the
To business. It is necessary to help Igor: to be engaged in the organisation of shootings
Clips and their placing to search for sponsors for some
Actions to correct the schedule of tours - to work as though
The "shadow" director. At leisure I prepare Daniel for school:
Has learnt to read, I drive it in pool.
N.B.: you, probably, are going to to give the child to the jazz
The Kazarnovsky?
Island B: No, at Daniel good mathematical abilities, it already
Now knows very much and solves non-standard problems.
Probably, the school will be with profound studying of the exact sciences.
N.B.: and the daddy learns the son to game on a saxophone?
Island B: to Daniel 6 years, and to it rather early seriously to be engaged in music.
When the free time stands out (and Igor works practically without
Days off), it learns the son to go for a drive on the hockey fads.
N.B.: Oksana, and you understand a jazz?
Island B: I have simultaneously met Igor and with a jazz.
Despite it, Igor consults often on me, knowing, that mine
Musical knowledge are limited to the name of notes. For me
The big riddle: why it does it? Certainly, for seven years
Joint life with the musician I something has learnt. When Igor
Was a producer Peter's of disk Podgorodetsky, it has taken an interest in mine
Opinion on sounding of some fragments. I, as could, have told
The sensations. Igor has made round eyes and has asked:
"You that, called up with Petej?" It has appeared, that has told
About the same, as I, and even in similar expressions. And when
Igor wrote down Rakhmaninov's sound-track, I have literally insisted on
Choice of that solo which is pleasant to me.
N.B.: Oksana how you think why all is possible to you?
Island B: Simply I am not afraid to try to realise all ideas,
Which come to to me mind.
