Vasiliev Ivan Vasilievich Illustrated Biographical Encyclopedic Dictionary Vasiliev Ivan Vasilievich

“Most of all, I owe my artistic education to Grigory Konstantinovich Bureev, a teacher of Palekh miniatures.” (I. V. Vasiliev). Palekh art school of ancient painting... How many wonderful masters it brought up within its walls! The art of Palekh is a complex and peculiar art that has absorbed the traditions of Russian artistic culture. They were reflected in the high decorativeness, in the conventionality of images, coming from the poetic interpretation of the image, in the expressiveness of the silhouette, patterning and festivity. It captivated those who are truly close to the people, know their customs, understand the soul. That's why I loved it Vasiliev Ivan Vasilievich, an interesting and original artist, whose birthplace was the village of Maly Dorki, Palekh district, Ivanovo region. Since childhood, he was surrounded by rural nature, soft, lyrical, Russian, which later became a source of inspiration for him.

In 1932, he entered the Palekh school, which became his "gateway" to the world of art, to the world of anxieties, failures, and joys. The main special subject for three years was the art of Palekh. On the last, fourth, course, painting lessons on porcelain were introduced. Remarkable artists, founders of Palekh painting, I.I. Golikov, I.V. Markichev, A.A. Dydykin, N.M. Zinoviev, F.A. Kaurtsev and others visited the Dulevo plant, where they got acquainted with the technology of making ceramics, with painting with ceramic paints, and passed on the experience to their students. Study time was not wasted. And here Ivan Vasilievich remains faithful to the traditions of the glorious masters and teachers of Palekh for many years. The painting on the tea service "Hunting for a deer", the painting on the plate "Partisans" are magnificent examples of Palekh on porcelain and now adorn the Museum of Ceramics in Kuskovo.

After graduating from school in October 1939, I.V. Vasiliev works at the faience factory named after. Kalinin in Konakovo, but does not work there for long, he is called up to the ranks Soviet army. Then the hard trials of the war and the return to the plant as a holder of the Order of the Great Patriotic War with medals "For the Defense of Odessa" and "Victory over Germany".

The first years after the war, when it was necessary to restore the ruined economy, it was necessary to draw drawings for the mass production of table sets, vases, plates. But even in these products, the artist remains true to his creative style. For the last decade, Ivan Vasilyevich has been working on new forms for majolica and faience. He made original appliances for water, for breakfast, for beer, a children's appliance. The most interesting of them were exhibited in the country and abroad and were repeatedly awarded with medals, a diploma of the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR, a diploma of the Board of the Union of Artists of the RSFSR, a certificate and medals of VDNKh.

From September 1963 I.V. Vasiliev is the chief artist of the Konakovo plant. He enjoys well-deserved honor and respect there, since Ivan Vasilyevich is not only a master of his craft, but also a man of great soul. His kind advice and encouraging smile are now helping those who are just starting their career.

Years of life 1909-1977.

In 1932, he entered the Moscow Institute of Physical Education for the first two-year course taught by Vasily Oshchepkov. After completing the course, he returned to Leningrad. He played for the local Dynamo. There he began his coaching career. In 1938, a friendly meeting of five cities in sambo took place. Vasiliev, being an acting coach, led his pupils to victory in this match. In 1939, the first USSR Sambo Championship took place. The Leningrad team led by Vasilyev became the winner in the team event, winning four out of eight gold medals.

During the Great Patriotic War, he served in intelligence, trained paratroopers and special forces soldiers. On the Nevsky Piglet, Ivan Vasiliev's group encountered German intelligence. In a short hand-to-hand fight, the Nazis were neutralized, and five were taken prisoner. For this fight, Vasiliev received the Order of the Red Star. In 1943 he prepared a manual on hand-to-hand combat.

After the war, he continued to perform and coach in the Dynamo society. On the basis of his section, a sambo federation was created. 56 of his students became champions and prize-winners of the USSR and European championships. His pupils headed the sports teams of the city: Mark Girshov - the society "Science", Dmitry Domanin - "Labor reserves".

I.V. Vasiliev had employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, border guards, military personnel in training in the combat section of sambo internal troops and combatants, having trained hundreds of social instructors, regularly held seminars and consultations with demonstration performances.

The fruits of the highly qualified and conscientious work of Vasiliev I.V. are 60 masters of sports of the USSR, 22 gold medals of the championships of the USSR won by his students, Olympic medalist in judo, Honored Master of Sports A. Bogolyubov, multiple champions of the USSR in sambo Danilin V.T., Ivanov S.N., Skvortsov A.P. , Trouble P.K., Kulikov N.T.

An excerpt characterizing Vasilyev, Ivan Vasilyevich (general)

The countess was lying on an armchair, strangely awkwardly stretching herself, and banging her head against the wall. Sonya and the girls held her hands.
“Natasha, Natasha!” shouted the countess. - Not true, not true ... He is lying ... Natasha! she screamed, pushing away those around her. - Go away, everyone, it's not true! Killed! .. ha ha ha ha! .. not true!
Natasha knelt on an armchair, bent over her mother, embraced her, lifted her up with unexpected force, turned her face towards her, and clung to her.
- Mommy! .. my dear! .. I'm here, my friend. Mom, she whispered to her, not stopping for a second.
She did not let her mother out, tenderly wrestled with her, demanded a pillow, water, unbuttoned and tore her mother's dress.
“My friend, my dear ... mother, darling,” she whispered incessantly, kissing her head, hands, face and feeling how uncontrollably, in streams, tickling her nose and cheeks, her tears flowed.
The Countess squeezed her daughter's hand, closed her eyes, and fell silent for a moment. Suddenly she got up with unusual rapidity, looked around senselessly, and, seeing Natasha, began to squeeze her head with all her might. Then she turned her face, wrinkled with pain, to look at him for a long time.
“Natasha, you love me,” she said in a low, trusting whisper. - Natasha, you will not deceive me? Will you tell me the whole truth?
Natasha looked at her with tear-filled eyes, and in her face there was only a plea for forgiveness and love.
“My friend, mother,” she repeated, straining all the forces of her love to somehow remove from her the excess of grief that crushed her.
And again, in a powerless struggle with reality, the mother, refusing to believe that she could live when her beloved boy, blooming with life, was killed, fled from reality in a world of madness.
Natasha did not remember how that day, night, next day, next night went. She did not sleep and did not leave her mother. Natasha's love, stubborn, patient, not as an explanation, not as a consolation, but as a call to life, every second seemed to embrace the countess from all sides. On the third night, the Countess was quiet for a few minutes, and Natasha closed her eyes, leaning her head on the arm of the chair. The bed creaked. Natasha opened her eyes. The Countess sat on the bed and spoke softly.
- I'm glad you came. Are you tired, do you want some tea? Natasha walked over to her. “You have grown prettier and matured,” the countess continued, taking her daughter by the hand.
“Mommy, what are you talking about!”
- Natasha, he is gone, no more! And, embracing her daughter, for the first time the countess began to cry.

Princess Mary postponed her departure. Sonya and the count tried to replace Natasha, but they could not. They saw that she alone could keep her mother from insane despair. For three weeks Natasha lived hopelessly with her mother, slept on an armchair in her room, gave her water, fed her and talked to her without ceasing - she spoke, because one gentle, caressing voice calmed the countess.
The emotional wound of the mother could not heal. Petya's death tore off half of her life. A month after the news of Petya's death, which found her a fresh and vigorous fifty-year-old woman, she left her room half dead and not taking part in life - an old woman. But the same wound that half killed the Countess, this new wound called Natasha to life.
A spiritual wound resulting from a rupture of the spiritual body, just like a physical wound, however strange it may seem, after a deep wound has healed and seems to have come together, a spiritual wound, like a physical wound, heals only from within by the protruding force of life.
Natasha's wound also healed. She thought her life was over. But suddenly love for her mother showed her that the essence of her life - love - was still alive in her. Love has awakened, and life has awakened.
The last days of Prince Andrei connected Natasha with Princess Mary. A new misfortune brought them even closer. Princess Marya postponed her departure and for the last three weeks, as if she were a sick child, she looked after Natasha. Last weeks, held by Natasha in her mother's room, tore her physical strength.
Once, in the middle of the day, Princess Mary, noticing that Natasha was trembling in a feverish chill, took her to her and laid her on her bed. Natasha lay down, but when Princess Mary, having lowered the blinds, wanted to go out, Natasha called her to her.
- I don't want to sleep. Marie, sit with me.
- You're tired - try to sleep.
- No no. Why did you take me away? She will ask.
- She's much better. She spoke so well today,” said Princess Marya.
Natasha was lying in bed and in the semi-darkness of the room she examined the face of Princess Marya.
"Does she look like him? thought Natasha. Yes, similar and not similar. But it is special, alien, completely new, unknown. And she loves me. What's on her mind? Everything is good. But how? What does she think? How does she look at me? Yes, she's beautiful."
“Masha,” she said, timidly pulling her hand to her. Masha, don't think I'm stupid. Not? Masha, dove. I love you so much. Let's be really, really friends.
And Natasha, embracing, began to kiss the hands and face of Princess Marya. Princess Mary was ashamed and rejoiced at this expression of Natasha's feelings.
From that day on, that passionate and tender friendship was established between Princess Mary and Natasha, which happens only between women. They kissed incessantly, spoke tender words to each other, and spent most of their time together. If one went out, the other was restless and hurried to join her. Together they felt a greater harmony with each other than separately, each with himself. A feeling stronger than friendship was established between them: it was an exceptional feeling of the possibility of life only in the presence of each other.
Sometimes they were silent for whole hours; sometimes, already lying in their beds, they began to talk and talked until the morning. They talked mostly about the distant past. Princess Marya talked about her childhood, about her mother, about her father, about her dreams; and Natasha, who previously with calm incomprehension turned away from this life, devotion, humility, from the poetry of Christian self-denial, now, feeling bound by love with Princess Marya, fell in love with Princess Marya's past and understood the previously incomprehensible side of life to her. She did not think of applying humility and self-sacrifice to her life, because she was used to looking for other joys, but she understood and fell in love with another this previously incomprehensible virtue. For Princess Mary, who listened to stories about Natasha's childhood and early youth, a previously incomprehensible side of life was also revealed, faith in life, in the pleasures of life.
They still never spoke about him in the same way, so as not to violate with words, as it seemed to them, the height of feeling that was in them, and this silence about him made them forget him little by little, not believing this.


VASILYEV Ivan Vasilievich (1810s - 1870s) - an outstanding gypsy musician of the 19th century, conductor of the famous gypsy choir, singer, guitarist and composer. It was to Ivan Vasilyev, as the most talented musician, and not to his sons or other relatives, that I.O. Sokolov directing his choir. In the 50-70s. the choir became famous in Moscow for performing Russian songs and everyday romances in a peculiar choral manner of Moscow gypsies. The performance of the songs was devoid of the tinge of vulgarity that the gypsy choirs acquired later. The choir was highly appreciated by A. Ostrovsky, I. Gorbunov, Ap. Grigoriev, A. Fet and others. A.N. Ostrovsky recorded a number of old Russian songs from Vasiliev; one of them - "The Baby Came Out" - was used by M. Mussorgsky in the opera "Khovanshchina" (Marfa's song "The Baby Came Out"). Vasiliev was the first to introduce ensemble singing into the choir - trios and quartets. He was the author of romances and songs popular in everyday life and became the first gypsy composer whose works were published: about twenty published songs by Vasiliev are known.

Historian-life writer M.I. Pylyaev, the author of the books "Old Moscow" and "Old Petersburg", wrote about I. Vasiliev's choir: "In the fifties, Ivan Vasilyev, a student of Ilya Sokolov, appeared; he was a great expert in his field, a good musician and a wonderful person who enjoyed the friendship of many Moscow writers, such as, for example, A. N. Ostrovsky, A. A. Grigoriev, etc. During a conversation with him, the latter wrote his own poem, which was later set to music by Iv Vasiliev. Gypsy choirs in Moscow and St. Petersburg picked up this song, and she went for a walk around the wide world without the name of a poet, without the name of a musician-composer, losing the words and stanzas of the poetic original, acquiring new words, and became a folk gypsy and folk Russian song... Here are the words of this unprinted romance:

Two guitars behind the wall rang, whined,
O motive, my beloved, my old friend, are you?
It's you: I recognize your move in D minor
And your melody in frequent enumeration.
Chimbiryak, chimbiryak, chimbiryashechki,
With blue eyes you, my darlings! ..

Ivan Vasiliev himself was a good baritone, his romances at that time were a great success and were sung by everyone<...>Quartet singing and trios especially flourished with Ivan Vasiliev ... "(Pylyaev M.I. Old Petersburg. 3rd ed. St. Petersburg, ed. A.S. Suvorin, 1903, p. 408-417).

M. I. Pylyaev’s reference to Ivan Vasiliev as the author of the melody to the famous “Gypsy Hungarian Woman” by Apollon Grigoriev is very significant, since the name of the author was not disclosed in the musical literature before him. At the same time, Pylyaev, judging by his remark about this romance as "not published", did not know that in 1857 "Gypsy Hungarian" was published.

The following is known about the history and further fate of this romance:

Apollon Alexandrovich Grigoriev - one of the brightest figures of Russian culture in the middle of the 19th century, a poet, prose writer, translator, literary critic - was a selflessly enthusiastic guitarist and "gypsy player" (as passionate admirers and connoisseurs of gypsy songs and gypsy dances were then called) . In his youth, he learned to play the piano with a famous musician and teacher and played this instrument well, but later mastered the guitar and gave up everything for the sake of a “seven-string girlfriend”, with whom he almost never parted and played with true skill. “He sang all evening long,” Fet wrote. - He delivered real pleasure with the sincerity and skill of his singing. He didn’t actually sing, but, as it were, he marked the musical contour of the play with a dotted line ... His repertoire was varied, but his favorite song was “Hungarian”, in which the dreary revelry of lost happiness broke through. It was Apollon Grigoriev who composed the poems “Oh, speak with me at least ...” and “Gypsy Hungarian” (both poems were written by the poet in 1857). The poet's friend, Ivan Vasiliev, was a sensitive person, able to understand and share someone else's pain: when Grigoriev read to him The Gypsy Hungarian, the musician was immediately imbued with the poet's feelings. He processed the "Hungarian" melody and composed the famous guitar variations. So Grigoriev's "Gypsy Hungarian" became a song. Very soon, gypsy choirs began to perform it. The second part of the song includes stanzas from the poem "Oh, at least you talk to me ...". Someone completed the chorus "Oh, once, again! ..", which was not in Grigoriev's poems. On the basis of this new “Hungarian dance”, a gypsy tap-dance began to develop, which we simply call “Gypsy”. Subsequently, the "Gypsy Hungarian" began to live an independent life. That is, not according to the written text and not according to the notes, but as if by itself. Different performers included different stanzas from Grigoriev's poems in "their" song and supplemented them with new verses with the same freedom. There were sometimes mediocre and vulgar additions, but basically the variants of "Gypsy Hungarian" - now the song was called "Two Guitars" - are worthy of the original. The dancing "Gypsy Girl" is a kind of monument to the Moscow life of the gypsies, this guitar improvisation on a dance theme in the spirit of the traditions of the tabor art has remained to live in the performing practice of the best gypsy guitarists.

Apollon Grigoriev himself performed his poems to his own guitar accompaniment as two different romances:

"Oh, talk to me at least..."

Oh, speak at least you are with me
Seven-string friend!
My heart is full of such sadness
And the night is so moonlit!

There is one star burning
So bright and painful
Rays heart moves,
Teasing him caustically.

What does she want from her heart?
After all, she already knows
What is longing for her long days
My whole life is chained ...

And my heart knows
drenched in poison,

That I drank it into myself
Poisonous breath...

I am from dawn to dawn
I mourn, I suffer, I mourn...
Drink to me - agree
You are an unsung song.

Speak to your sister
All the omissions are strange...
Look: the star burns brighter...
Oh, sing my desire!

And before dawn I'm ready with you
To carry on this conversation...
Agree only to me, finish drinking
You are an unsung song!

"Gypsy Hungarian"("Two Guitars")

Two guitars ringing
Mournfully whined...
From childhood, a memorable tune,
old friend mine is you?

How can I not recognize you?
You have a seal
violent hangover,
Bitter fun!

It's you, dashing spree,
You are a confluence of evil sadness
With the voluptuousness of a bayadère -
You, the motive of the Hungarian!

Quints rattle sharply,
Sounds are pouring out...
Sounds whine and squeal
Like groans of flour.

What grief? Spit, drink!
You wind it up, wind it up
Rope grief!
Drown sorrow in the sea!

Here's a walk through the Basques
With careless daring,
And behind it - ringing and din
Violent and rebellious.

Bust ... and a fifth again
Whine-howl;
Rushing blood to the heart
The head is on fire.

Chibiryak, chibiryak, chibiryashechka,
With blue eyes you, my darling!

Shut up, don't be shy
Burst, evil quint!
Don't mention them...
I know them without you!
Have a look at them at least once.
Straight, clear, bold...
And then die
It's a lousy business.
How can you really not love?
This is no good!
But what strength is enough to live,
Gotta marvel!
Get together and die
Will not come to say goodbye!
People will interpret:
This is no good!
Why wouldn't it fit?
Speaking about?
So just drop everything...
Pretty bad!
Share well, you are my share,
You are a dashing lot!
I would have broken you
If only the will!
If only she were mine
I'd love it hard...
Yes, that fierce snake
Share - life ruined.
Hands and feet
Confused-tied,
On sleepless nights
Sucked up heart!
How it hurts, how it hurts
Heart hurts...
That's what the quint says
That the bass howls so.

Noisily jumping from top to bottom
Scattered sounds,
They rang, tangled
In a circular dance.
Like a camp all day long
With a squeal, a whistle, a cry
Comes in with enthusiasm
In wild ecstasy.

Whispering sounds murmur
sweet speech...
Nudes tremble
Chest, arms, shoulders.
The sounds are all drunk
A bliss of kisses.
The sounds are full of screams
Passionate shudders...

Basan, bassan, bassan,
Basanata, bassanata!
You are given to another
No return, no return...
What's the deal? you are mine!
Does he love like me?
No - it's bullshit!
You are my evil share,
These jokes are stupid!
We are with you, my soul,
Live one life
Life together is so good
Separate - woe is evil!
Oh my life, my life...
Cling to your heart with your heart!
There will be no sin on you
Let people judge me
God forgive me...

What are you whining, my
Zealous heart?
I saw her
Ring on hand!
Basan, bassan, bassan,
Basanata, bassanata!
You are given to another
No return, no return!
Eh-ma, you wind
Rope grief ...
Take a walk and drink
Drown sorrow in the sea!

Again a dull bust,
The sounds are crying again...
What is the mute reproach for?
Say a word!
I'm at your feet - look -
With mortal anguish
Speak, speak
Have pity on me!
Am I to blame
The fact that because of the look
Yours - I would be glad
Endure the torments of hell?
That I would destroy you
And myself with you...
If only you were mine
Forever with me.
Only for us to know
Never, neither here nor there
Parting flour...
Do you hear ... again demonic din,
Sounds are coming again...
Into the ugliest chaos
Scream and groan
Everything was painfully mixed.
This is the moment of goodbye.

Go away, go away
Bright vision!
I have a fire in my chest
And excitement in the blood.
Dear friend, sorry, goodbye
Farewell - be healthy!
Get busy, get busy
Wicked Quint, again!
How to squeal from flour,
Like a child in pain
All sorrow rattle
Damn share!
Let it hurt more and more
The sounds are fading,
To make the heart faster
Bursting with pain!

Ivan Vasiliev's romances were designed for a sad half-talk to the guitar. He himself was a master of this genre, but it was already a different kind of music than the work of his predecessor. A music reviewer of that time wrote: "One cannot help but regret the unforgettable Ilya Sokolov ... And now they sing well, harmoniously, often fascinatingly; but there is no revelry, that fire, distinguishing feature gypsy song, sharply separating it from any other tune. "Here you can see the work of time. Life has changed, the audience is different - and gypsy art follows them, turning into a form of salon music playing. Shadows of past passions flash in the elegiac sound of Vasiliev's romances -" Ruined me", "Do not listen to me", "Love of a gypsy" - and in the beautifully mournful singing of his choir. Alexander Blok called the 1870s of "Russian reality" "a muddy sea and threatening shipwreck". genuine folk art of the gypsies and pop, restaurant, everyday performance of the gypsy romance.On this basis, a phenomenon associated with the decline and exaggeration of song forms arises and flourishes, which in the 19th century was called "gypsyism", and in the 20th - "gypsyism".
