Ksenia Dezhneva. Stars of the "Main Stage": about mentors and talismans

Five years ago, the name of Ksenia Dezhneva was known only in narrow musicological circles. And even then among fans of classical opera music.

Today she is known from numerous television broadcasts with Valery Meladze and Nikolai Baskov. And solo, she has made significant progress in PR thanks to the Main Stage project on the Rossiya TV channel. A noticeable phenomenon of national music, as the composer and producer Konstantin Meladze said about it, was also appreciated by Ulyanovsk residents in September. Ulyanovsk Pravda also found out that Ksenia is a Volzhan by blood.
Over the years of television promotion, Dezhneva managed to become a professional opera singer, having received two higher education- V Russian Academy music named after the Gnesins and the Moscow Conservatory, sing on the best stages of the country and receive a number of prestigious awards at international competitions. And shortly before her visit to Ulyanovsk, Ksenia was appreciated abroad, giving her the unofficial title of a novice prima donna of Russian opera. The young (slightly over 30 - not the age in her genre) singer jokingly admits that she owes the lion's share of her success to the icon of St. Xenia, with whom she does not part. But seriously...
- It's immodest to talk about myself like that, but I'm probably stubborn. And responsible. Although she has been insecure since childhood. And I also have a Volga character.
- That is, you are practically our countrywoman?
- She could be. I myself was born in Moscow. I can consider Zhukovsky near Moscow as my homeland, where for a long time lived and met my parents. But they always assured me that I inherited my character from my grandmother, my father's mother. And here she is from Saratov. Therefore, I love all the Volga cities at the genetic level. I consider each of them family. After all, I could have been born here, after all. And I know firsthand how purposeful and strong-minded all Volga residents are.
- As far as we can judge from the few publications in the press about you so far, you are purposefully aimed precisely at the opera.
- Instead of an answer, here are two facts from my biography that have so far looped the past. I started with the role of Suzanne in Mozart's Marriage of Figaro at the Mussa Jalil Opera and Ballet Theatre. And in the summer of this year she made her debut as Barbarina in the same opera, but already in Bolshoi Theater. I can’t imagine that even for a moment I could change the art to which I went all my life. Opera is universal. And, if according to the Hamburg account, it has survived and will survive all one-day genres. Although I can guess what you're getting at. Do you want to ask in the light of the above about the show "Main Stage"?
- Less. Moreover, on the channel "Russia" you compare favorably with your voice palette, which is richer in you than in other participants. But cooperation with Meladze and Baskov somehow does not fit into the general paradigm ...
- It all started with the fact that in 2012, while still a student, I was invited to back vocals by Alexander Serov. It was new and I made up my mind. And acquaintance with the pop establishment began. Hat acquaintance, by the way. Although with Kolya Baskov, we found several common topics for conversation. He is also an opera singer by training. I can only say that I sang a duet only with interesting men. Uninteresting ones don't interest me (smiles).
- Was there anything other than music that "plowed" you for life?
- good literature- and continues to "plow". Especially Hemingway. And especially For Whom the Bell Tolls.
- Cities in tours do not merge into one yet?
- In no case. I'm still a neophyte traveler. And I'm interested in knowing everything. And first of all, the Volga cities are of interest for obvious reasons. (smiles). Ulyanovsk is extraordinary. You have order, tranquility, cleanliness, beauty, it's worth a lot. And the real home of talent, judging by what I managed to see. Performed on the same stage with folk ensemble Volga. Honesty and loyalty to the profession of Ulyanovsk dancers bribed me ...
