Subscribe to the end of the story Advertising of the WhatsApp channel, having been in Moscow for the first time in Moscow, Lorenzo did not study the Russian language, because then he still did not suspect that he would soon return to Russia and remain there for a long time.

In his opinion, Moscow has very modern youth, and it so happened that his best friends are from Russia. And my culture was closer to me then, and my parents too, because they, of course, affect our decisions, too. And I can say that their love for your culture also influenced my decision. And so I entered the Gnesins Academy of Music and finally began to learn a language in order not to feel a stranger.

” When asked where he was, Lorenzo replies: "From Italy, but perhaps a Russian soul." However, he has no Russian passport. But, on the other hand, the Italian passport also allows, fortunately, there are a lot of where to go, ”he explains. Lorenzo admits that his Russian is not perfect, but that's why, speaking on it, he feels a little more free - interlocutors, realizing that Russian is not native to him, is easier to relate to mistakes, and it helps psychologically.

The position of Russian passports is now “delicate”, but Lorenzo hopes that the situation will improve over time. About the show on Russian television and work on a wide audience, Lorenzo gives concerts, he is a rather successful blogger with a decent number of subscribers. He began to lead his channels during the pandemic, "because there was more free time, and there were fewer concerts." At first there were videos in Tiktok, because he didn’t have much to mount time - the pianists have to constantly deal with it.

Suddenly a significant audience arose, Lorenzo says, and he was written from Channel One Dmitry Borisov, with whom they later became friends and proposed a joint project. In July, Lorenzo went to Kamchatka. Now the program comes out on the channel “Let's go! Although Lorenzo does not exclude that the show will be released on the first. And for me this is fine, because I believe that any platform, including, of course, television if we can use it, of course, this is a huge opportunity to convey thoughts, ”he says.

When Lorenzo began to blog, his main desire was to bring closer to a younger audience with classical music, he says. Not everyone knows who the bang is. But let's try. Let's start talking about something else. About our languages, for example, ”he explains. After a trip to Kamchatka, Lorenzo began to work hard with Borisov. They spent two weeks there.

You live together, you rejoice together, you are afraid together, because there were really there are really dangers around the corner - bears, for example. And so it all accelerated our relationship. And already after Kamchatka it seemed that as if we had known each other for a long time, ”he says. As for the bears, this is not a joke. In one of the episodes of the Lorenzo show, it was necessary to sing loudly in Italian to scare the bear from the camp.

I try to be about the attitude to the state propaganda “I, honestly, I try to be, especially for interviews, on television in Russia, outside politics, because I believe that I am not a political scientist, I am a musician,” says Lorenzo. And I really like that on television in Russia there is an opportunity, at least, to talk about the unification. Now, unfortunately, we are more far from each other.

And I believe that there are things that unite us, especially if we talk about Russians and Italians. We have a lot in common. It seems to me that the historical roots of our friendship are very deep. ” That is, there were such cases when they tried to ask some more political issues. But I like to talk more about music. And if interested, about my story as an Italian in Russia and so on.

” He admits that now it is less comfortable to talk about politics. But this does not mean that he does not think about her at all. But I repeat, I am glad that I have the opportunity to travel around the world, in Russia and music. Because this is the most important thing. Therefore, I do not want to be taken from me, no matter where - in Russia, in Europe - this opportunity. Because otherwise what is the meaning of my life?

He emphasizes that he uses these platforms in order to talk about music. And responsibly, of course. Therefore, I have to behave carefully, but use them. Therefore, so far I see that there is a good response from the audience, ”the musician explains. “Concert activity allows you to travel about Moscow and Russia,” says Lorenzo. They meet him warmly, he says: “Very warm.

I am very grateful, indeed, even sometimes, it seems to me, too warmly. ” Well, this beauty then remains in the eyes and inside. And sometimes I feel even more comfortable than at home, because after all, not everyone behaves so nicely at home. ” Would Lorenzo vote for Putin in the elections next year? There is, of course, but I think it is inappropriate to share them here.

”Lorenzo says about social networks that when at the age of 15 he began to engage in social networks, in particular Facebook, who was then “in fashion”, he was afraid that if he was not talking about music, this would affect his concert activity. Therefore, he began to lead his channel in Russian. He invites his brothers to record videos with him. The younger brother Gabriel, who will also soon come to Russia to give joint concerts in four hands with Lorenzo participates with pleasure.

And the older brother, Tommaso, refuses, fears that his colleagues-contracts will not appreciate this. Yes, and he is even much funnier than me, when with his friends, and for some reason he is afraid of something, ”says Lorenzo. The “star” status in Italy Lorenzo is mainly learned by Russian -speaking, and in Russia, as he says, he has a wider audience.

If earlier I loved to go to some places, now, for example, it is better not to do this sometimes, ”says Lorenzo. According to him, in Italy, famous people are more mundane, drive on ordinary cars and generally behave easier. Russian stars live, he says. When there were opportunities to buy, for example, a car, everyone began to buy large cars, just to show that, they say, we have such an opportunity.

And in Italy there have been such opportunities for a long time. About the business and the team “I myself come up with all my videos, and so it was from the very beginning,” says Lorenzo. Professionals help to mount and shoot videos with advertising, and he shoots his own - he has his own camera, light, recording equipment. But there are more and more advertising offers, and hands begin to be missed.

On the set in Russia, operators help, there is a person who helps with translation and script. According to Lorenzo, now more and more proposals are received about advertising on the blog, and the number of concerts per month is still limited. Sometimes they offer a concert in the Kremlin, and then it turns out that this is a deception. ” There are proposals from foreign companies, in particular, from the Italian entrepreneurs with whom work is now going on.

And why not in classical music, for example? Under the brand "Lorenzo Banyati" tea is already produced. Lorenzo makes all key decisions himself. One of the advantages of blogging is that new prospects can open every day. ” This material contains content provided by Google YouTube.
