The Vladimir Spivakov Foundation charity project in Bashkortostan entitled “Children for Children: Music of Our Hearts” may become permanent, annual. In 2019 it is held on the grant of the President of the Russian Federation and includes concerts with the participation of children musicians and master classes of famous teachers. Events are held throughout the republic, not only in children's art schools but also in hospitals and orphanages.

“We see the genuine interest of children in the project and cannot remain indifferent. All children participate in events with great pleasure, listen to the valuable advice of our renowned teachers. “Many children from orphanages see musical instruments for the first time in their life,” Artur Naziullin, head of the Vladimir Spivakov Foundation in Bashkortostan told Bashinform News Agency. “I am convinced that this project should continue after the expiration of the grant. I hope we will find a response from the republic for the annual, ongoing project implementation.”

The other day concerts and master classes of the “Children to Children: Music of Our Hearts” project were held in Salavat, Sterlitamak, and also in the villages of Ishimbay district - Makarovo and Petrovsky. In Salavat, the city administration gathered children-orphans, children with disabilities, students at the pedagogical college.

A violinist Milena Zubaerova, 2nd-year student at the Secondary Special Music College, winner of All-Russian and Republican contests, participant of the V. Spivakov Foundation Academy in the Republic of Bashkortostan noted that all children perceived music differently. In the music school, children more deeply understood classical works, as they already had musical experience. But in orphanages, children showed a keen interest in the instruments. The audience was of different ages, there were also teachers in the hall who thanked for the opportunity to listen to the music and get master classes.
