"To nurture a unique star, you actually need a little – a competent teacher is required, who would find a talented child and then work with them not only on vocal exercises, but closely: help select the right repertoire, produce," said Svetlana Statsenko. In her firm belief, radio and television should come to the aid in the latter, because without them, the young talent will not achieve professional growth. "Understand, here's a good boy, he has a wonderful voice, musical material. And what next – who should he show it to, if there are no children's music programs on television, radio says it's non-format, how to nurture him, to move him forward professionally. He will remain just a good boy," the teacher believes. She mentioned that on the children's radio hit in Moscow, the compositions of some of her students have held top positions for several months.
