Singer Tatyana Kurtukova: "The National Centre RUSSIA is a strategically important place"
Russian
singer, actress, and performer of the hit song "Matushka"
("Mother"), Tatyana Kurtukova, once again visited the National Centre
RUSSIA, where she has performed many times before. The artist took part in a
podcast recording and emphasised the importance of the National Centre RUSSIA
space.
"The
National Centre RUSSIA is a vast yet cosy place. It brings together like-minded
people, patriots, guests of the capital and of the entire country. The centre
allows visitors to experience the distinct character and beauty of Russia’s
regions — and this is undoubtedly a strategically important task," said
Tatyana Kurtukova.
The singer
shared her thoughts on the role of women in society and in preserving cultural
traditions. She noted that her path to popularity coincided with the beginning
of her motherhood journey, and it is in the ability to balance important life
roles that she finds her strength.
"When
you're in harmony — giving time to yourself, your family, and your career —
life becomes more fulfilling. It is both possible and essential to combine
motherhood and creativity, to be a professional without losing yourself. The
key is to manage your time wisely and build relationships with the team that
helps bring your ideas to life," shared Tatyana.
According
to her, a woman is a gentle yet powerful force. This is the image she conveys
in her song "Mother Earth."
"Through
a kind and gentle female voice, we can speak of patriotism and love for the
Motherland. Women save the world not only with beauty but also with a special
way of being — with maternal love that extends not only to their child, but to
everything they do," she said.
The new
episode of the "Russia Speaks" podcast featuring Tatyana Kurtukova
will be available on the National Centre RUSSIA website and on social media.
Host Anzhelika Kiryan spoke with the singer about the growing popularity of
folk music, the revival of traditions, her creative journey, and more.
The participants got the idea that ordinary household waste can become an unusual material for creativity.
On June 26, the annual final meeting of the Board of the Federal Agency for Youth Affairs (Rosmolodezh) was held at the National Centre RUSSIA.
A panel discussion of the EISI "Video games as a tool for teaching values and protecting historical memory" was held at the National Centre RUSSIA.
