— Before to receive a post of the minister, you were engaged in public and legislative work much, for what has repeatedly been noted by the State Duma. But besides it in a coin box of your awards there is also a reading and writing from Russian Orthodox Church …
— Yes, it is the reading and writing of the Patriarchal center of spiritual development of children and youth. Have handed over it that we many years realized such project, as festival of children's creativity "Wind rose". Many children who have passed through our festival, study in Gnesinke, live in Moscow and sing in "Fidgets" and other known ensembles. For children from remote places it is the social lift, a step in other world. Многие дети, которые прошли через наш фестиваль, учатся в Гнесинке, живут в Москве и поют в «Непоседах» и других известных ансамблях. Для детей из глубинки это социальный лифт, шаг в другой мир.
Some years ago we brought to us to Ljubov Jakovlevnu Zhuk's area, he/she is the leading teacher on a psaltery in Gnesinsky academy. It propagandizes a psaltery as the tool which keeps genetic memory of the people, and works with a patriarchy. With its help we have spent some master classes and concerts (it came with ensemble "Kupina"). For children it was opening. They have started to concern patriotic things differently absolutely. Here after these festivals, after work with Love Jakovlevnoj such reading and writing to me a distance. С ее помощью мы провели несколько мастер-классов и концертов (она приезжала с ансамблем «Купина»). Для детей это было открытием. Они начали совершенно иначе относиться к патриотическим вещам. Вот после этих фестивалей, после работы с Любовью Яковлевной такую грамоту мне дали.
