Not every person can dare to show their extraordinary talents in front of thousands of people. But not everyone can appreciate the gift given to a person. In this regard, tons of negativity, offensive comments pour out on the brave man, and he, unable to withstand the attacks of people, is forced to flee, covering his face from shame. But not everyone at home is waiting for calm, sometimes the closest people finish off the poor fellow. This happened to the participant of the TV project "Minute of Glory" Alexander Malyutin. Without waiting for his moment of glory, this elderly man could not stand the criticism pouring in from all sides, even from his own sister.

Love for music

Malyutin Alexander was from the village of Altai. This beautiful resort place, chosen by tourists, is famous for its juicy grapes and apricots. It was in one of the cozy houses of the colorful village that Alexander Malyutin lived with his second wife Nina Panarina. He was a well-known person in his area, because already in 1965 his name appeared on the pages of newspapers. They wrote about howthe boy is successfully studying in general education and music schools. It is worth noting that it took him a long time to get to the second one from his village by bus going to the regional center.

Alexander Malyutin, whose biography is described in this article, loved music to the point of madness. He was ready to spend hours learning new instruments, forgetting about having fun in the yard with friends, about homework and dinner. He dreamed of fame and went to it for many years.

Self-Taught Professional

Musician Alexander Malyutin was a real virtuoso, he could not live a day without music. He mastered all the instruments he played on his own, and delighted his fellow villagers with playing the piano, balalaika, accordion and guitar. But not only were his hands adapted to the music, the instruments easily gave in to his toes as well.

Alexander Malyutin, whose personal life was very successful, for some time was a member of the Siberian Choir, together with his first wife Lyudmila taught at the Kemerovo Music College. The family had two sons, for the sake of which the musician once went to shoot a television show. He wanted to show his matured children that he did not become lost after he left his family, he was able to achieve great success in the world of music. But all this was later, much later, before the TV project, many other adventures awaited him.

New record

After leaving his wife Lyudmila, Alexander got a job as a teacher at a children's art school. After a while his profession althe road ran to a kindergarten, where he also worked as a music teacher. But Malyutin dreamed of something completely different, he did not want such a life. For several years, Alexander dreamed of getting into the pages of the Guinness Book of Records, which he found out quite by accident when he saw her great-nephew.

For a long time, the musician thought about what number to put in order to receive a great honor, and came up with.

In 1999, Alexander made a small test for himself, which he recorded on videotape. He stood on his head for four hours, while masterfully performing musical pieces on the button accordion. After that, he decided to prepare more qualitatively - to make a real performance out of a simple playing of musical instruments. Thus, on the eve of Epiphany 2000, he arranged a concert, which was to take pride of place on the pages of the cherished book.

During the day, Alexander Malyutin continuously played the accordion, piano, guitar and balalaika, performing more than three hundred pieces of music during this time. The action was recorded on many video cameras so that the commission would not find any errors or quackery in the room.

Memory video

After a successful recording, the cassettes were sent by the Altai representative office of "Altai Guinness Power" to the Russian representative office of the great book. But no one else looked at the records, since it turned out that our representative office did not pay the British an annual participation fee in the amount of one hundred and eighty thousanddollars. Since then, the Book of Records has remained a cherished and unrealizable dream for many people in Russia. Of course, no one warned future participants that so far we are not participating anywhere, and talented people continued to record their records. Only they remained as a memento, recorded on many meters of videotape.

Lefty

Alexander Malyutin from the village of Altaiskoye could not be called a man of a timid dozen. He did not become very upset because he could not get into the pages of the Guinness Book. The musician heard about the Russian book of records called "Levsha" and decided that he would definitely get there.

Having prepared the program, in 2004 Alexander Malyutin hastened to show everyone that even upside down instruments can be played perfectly. And he was able to conquer the jury, becoming one of the winners. Under the terms of the competition, the finalists had to go on tour with their program in the cities of Russia. Alexander, who had been seeking recognition for so long, was crazy with happiness, he was looking forward to his first tour.

But in "Lefty" he was not destined to capture his outstanding talent. The first city that the record holders of Russia were supposed to visit was Moscow. The concert was canceled because terrorists from Chechnya laid siege to the Beslan school on the first day of September, and the first day of Alexander's tour. The entire festival has been postponed indefinitely.

Alexander Malyutin: "Minute of Glory"

In 2007, the musician caught fire with a new idea. He wanted to take part in the talent show that started on the first TV channel. Alexander Malyutin told his wife about his desire. The "minute of glory" for the 56-year-old man was the last chance to prove to himself that he had not lived his life in vain, and his talent would be accepted and remembered. Of course, Nina Panarina supported her husband, who was so eager to show people his art.

Viktor Korshunov, the head of the district where the musician lived, also supported his countryman, and even allocated money from the budget for Alexander's trip to Moscow. He told Malyutin that the whole country would be watching him, and his native region, like no other, would be rooting for his musician.

Last fight

Countrymen and former colleagues of Alexander remember how proud their musician was when he went to Moscow. He just wanted to live, to show his talent to all the people of Russia, to tour, to take part in concerts. Alexander believed that he would certainly be noticed in the capital, and the life he had dreamed of from early childhood would begin.

At the show, Alexander Malyutin performed "Turkish Rondo" (Mozart), turning away from the piano, and then "Dog W altz" with his toes. Fat Tatyana was the first to press the red button, saying that the musician plays disgustingly, and in general, he bared his legs in a decent society! She was supported by both Maslyakov and G altsev. They also expressed themselves rudely, saying that the musician, most likely, is not adequate. So "Minute of Glory" became formusician "Eternity of Shame".

"Requiem" by Mozart

Of course, Alexander Malyutin understood that this was just a television show, but still the words of the jury knocked him down. He walked quietly for a week, almost did not speak, completely abandoned his "Music Box" - this is how his relatives called the room in which the musician had all the instruments. Nina Panarina says that there was always a mess there: scattered notes, untidy instruments. Arriving from the show, Alexander neatly tidied everything up, put the notes in the cabinet, the instruments in the cases, and did not play them at all. At the request of his wife to perform something on the piano, Alexander played "Requiem".

In the future, he was not accepted to his former job - to a kindergarten, and he was forced to get a job in another, but not as a music teacher, but as a loader and janitor.

Last birthday

On September 10, Alexander turned 57 years old, noted in a close family circle. Literally at the same time, Malyutin received a letter from his sister. She wrote that her brother had disgraced the whole country, and that she herself was disgusted to watch the gray-haired old man "clack" his feet on a musical instrument. Perhaps the words of a kindred soul became the last argument in favor of death.

Alexander Malyutin hanged himself in his old house, built by his father in the village of Sarasu, where he went on September 15, five days after the celebration of his 57th birthday.

The worst thing is that the juryliterally killed the musician, did not express words of regret to his family. They said they don't have to blame themselves for what happened. The elderly man was pitied only on the Internet in numerous comments. And the show goes on! Members are still humiliated and insulted there.
