AUGUSTE
RODIN
In 19th century ,in the era of creation Auguste Roden chose not to rebel against the past. Rodin gave a new life to old. Rodin’s talent emerged in his early teens, as his poor eyesight opened up new vision for him. When he first started to paint in the age of seventeen, he was rejected by École des Beaux-Artsdespite. His talent was only recognized in 1870 when he completed his first masterpiece “The age of bronze”. Rodin was naturalist ;he searched for the beauty in humans and in general, the world around. Through this works, Rodin responded to his own statement “ the artist must be ready to be consumed by fierce of his own creation”. Rodin restored the ancient role of sculpture and presented human body in a number of masterpieces. In mastery of form, light and shadow he composed unbelievably detailed and characteristic sculptures. Those that convey beauty, history and esthetics of life. Some of these unearthly sculptures are accessible to us in ‘Victoria and Albert museum in London, presented by August Rodin himself, honoring the soldiers of Great Britain. V&A houses 18 of his sculptures, including ‘Cupid and Psyche’, ‘Saint John the Baptist’, The ‘Prodigal son’ and others. But if you are really passionate about Rodin, you can visit his house in Paris where you can see environment in which he used to create masterpieces and a wider range of unique statues.

Are you worried about the fact that the interest to classic music has diminished among young people? It’s quite worrying and sometimes pretty hard to share my passion with my friends when they are skeptical to classical music in general. Majority of my friends find classic music boring. However, even if they happen to attend a concert, they get sense and start enjoying it. So I think they don’t like it because they don’t know it.
Tell us a little about yourself I am Natasha Collins. I am 17 years old. I was born in France, as I am half French and moved to England with my family only when I was five. I am doing A levels in Music , English literature and Philosophy in one of West London sixth Are you tired of people highlighting your form. age over and over? Some of my friends ask me why I am not bored of piano. I remember once I was When did you start playing? performing in the concert called “hidden talI fell in love with piano when I was 5. When ent” so audience wasn’t able to see who was moved to London our landlord had a piano. As playing; After performance I was standing on a child I was bored of the conversation adults the scene among other much older performwere involved, I set down and tried to play. It ers. While I was introduced I could feel the came as surprise to households, everybody that people in the audience were kind of rushed into the room, and realized that was me shocked. After the concert, an elderly womplaying. The landlord told my mum ‘she is good an approached me and told “I am playing ’. My mum didn’t know what to respond as it 40 years and I am not able to feel the music was the first time I had ever played. So I guess I the way you feel it and you are just 17. How start playing from 5. it comes! ”.
As a young child was it hard to memorise notes? Any advices you would give young pianists Not really, as I fully divulge in music and it helps to learn. I am able to play, even without notes. As a child I associated notes with objects and even named them differently . My advice would be not to give it that importance and not to look at it as a boring subject just learn them in order to master your talent.

Do you see yourself as a creator or as an artist? I consider every artist as a creator. As I grow older, I consider myself as an artist, In a way , we all can become artists in what we do, if we pursue the passion and work hard.
