Oh! My poor little journal! It haven't been updated for ages... After passing the exams I felt free to do nothing and just waste my time. Now I'm still on vacation. And it's great because I can go skating and even eat icecream without being afraid that I'll catch cold and miss the studies :)
Yesterday I saw an interview with Alex Prior on TV. His ballet Mowgli (based on Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book) will be played on 3rd of February 2008, in Moscow Kremlin. Alex will conduct. And he's 15 years old!!! That's more than wonderful. Alex was born in London in 1992 and at 13 he became a student at the St Petersburg Conservatory where he is currently studying composition. He has now written more than 40 works, including symphonies, concertos, two ballets, two operas and a Requiem for the children of Beslan. But yesterday during the interview he spoke just like a boy, not like an adult or someone from the other planet. No! He's a very talented boy, who is really in love with music! :)
P.S. And I have written a few new poems in Russian.
