Great artistry, unique voice, amazingly beautiful and rich. The “opera queen Tamara” possesses all this, as Svyatoslav Belza once called her. The life of this woman is saturated and saturated with music, she achieved great success not only in creativity. Her personal life for many years was filled with happiness.
Childhood
Sinyavskaya Tamara - a Russian opera singer with a mezzo-soprano voice, was born in July 1943, 1943.
From childhood, Tamara Ilyinichna sang, organized "ceremonial concerts." I went into the large lobby of the house with high ceilings and stairs in marble and began to sing. Tamara sang until someone went out to find out who sings this at the entrance. So the girl wandered from house to house on her street until her parents gave her to the Pioneer House, to the song and dance ensemble of Vladimir Sergeyevich Loktev.
At ten years old, Tamara transferred to the choir. There she studied for 8 years. The music and stage school of Loktev was the best at that time, his children's team was invited even to government concerts.
Mastermind Tamara
The future star of the opera learned to feel the stage, not to be afraid of the audience. With the ensemble Tamara Sinyavskaya, whose biography in music was just beginning, made her first trip abroad to Czechoslovakia.
Sinyavskaya loved songs from films, with pleasure taught them and sang. With the appearance on the opera stage of the Argentinean Lolita Torres, the future Russian diva realized that it was important not only to sing on stage, but also to play an appropriate role. Having learned a lot from her inspirer, Sinyavskaya Tamara Ilyinichna was not lazy and spent hours in front of the mirror.
Student time
They say that dreams come true, but Sinyavskaya’s dream of becoming a dramatic actress was not fully fulfilled. Vladimir Sergeyevich advised her to go to college at the Pyotr Tchaikovsky Conservatory. There, Markova became her teacher, and then Pomerantseva.
Tamara did not become a dramatic actress, but she had to go through acting school. She sang in the choir at the Maly Theater. And in the play "The Living Corpse" she sang even in a gypsy choir. As a student at the school, Tamara Sinyavskaya soloed in Alexander Nevsky and in the production of Moscow.
Olga Pomerantseva, teacher Tamara Sinyavskaya considered her a hardworking student and a bright singer with a great future.
At the final exams in 1964, she was given five with a plus. This was a big exception at the time. Then at the exam she was advised to go for an audition at the Bolshoi Theater. Tamara listened to this advice.
The Bolshoi Theatre
Vocal data and artistry made a huge impression on the masters sitting in the selection committee. And there were great connoisseurs of musical art: Rozhdestvensky, Pokrovsky, Vishnevskaya, Arkhipova.
And at 20, without a conservative education, Sinyavskaya was accepted into the group of interns. A year later, she becomes the soloist of the main troupe of the Bolshoi. For almost 40 years, her creative life has been associated with this theater.
The very first role of “Page” in Verdi’s opera Rigoletto showed that Tamara is suitable to play travesty. But one day, when most of the troupe went on tour in Milan, she had to play the part of Olga in the Eugene Onegin directive. Her debut went great. Lemeshev himself said that in his 70 years he had finally met the real Olga, whom he had imagined. In the play, the great singer played the role of Lensky.
From the very first performances of Tamara Sinyavskaya at the Bolshoi, it was clear that a real diamond appeared on the opera stage. But success at such a young age did not turn the singer's head. Performing contralto and mezzo, she dreamed of a high mezzo party. And she stubbornly walked toward the dream, expanding her vocal range, and with it the creative repertoire. Since the beginning of his musical career, Sinyavskaya has already had dozens of parties. Moreover, these were far from simple productions.
Competitions and Achievements
Since 1968, Sinyavskaya Tamara has been participating in international competitions. The first competition brought her a gold medal; it was held in Sofia. The following year, at a competition in Belgium, where Soviet artists first participated, the artist receives not only a gold medal, but also a Grand Prix and an award for the best performance of romances.
In the USSR, the opera diva receives the first Tchaikovsky Prize. It was a year after the Belgian contest. Sinyavskaya Tamara Ilinichna was the youngest of the winners of the highest prizes. The Tchaikovsky Prize coincided with the final exams at GITIS. In 1973, Sinyavskaya undergoes an internship in Milan, at La Scala.
Tamara Sinyavskaya (photo below) is not only a great opera singer, but also an excellent actress. She remembers all the roles that she played. Sinyavskaya revived them, could hooligan, make laugh. Her last performance at the Bolshoi Theater was the play “The Tsar’s Bride” in honor of the centenary of Maria Maksakova. Since 2005, the singer heads the vocal department of GITIS.
Family life
But not only the opera career was stellar at Sinyavskaya. In her personal life, she also had a starry party.
They met with her husband, People's Artist Magomayev in Azerbaijan in 1972. There was a performance of Russian art, where Sinyavskaya Tamara was a guest. She really did not want to go on this trip. But fate has its own plans. She fell in love with the city, the Philharmonic and a young man.
Muslim Magomayev and Tamara Sinyavskaya met at the Baku Philharmonic thanks to their mutual friend - Robert Rozhdestvensky. Since then, they have not parted. They got married in 1974, despite the fact that before meeting with Muslim Sinyavskaya was already married and everything seemed to be smooth in her relations with her husband. But "love will accidentally come ...".
A lot of women furtively wiped away their tears, and sighed when they learned that the star couple was married. On the concert stage and married, they were together for 35 years. These years passed like one day.
Death is always unexpected, and the death of a loved one is doubly unexpected. Muslim Magomayev passed away in 2008. Tamara Ilinichna still can not accept the death of her husband. Listening to his songs, tears are not ashamed. In the life of the “opera queen Tamara” there was one love, and there was no other place.
In 2013, Sinyavka celebrated its 70th anniversary. Let's hope that this great opera diva will please us with her creativity for a long time to come.
