Biography
Eleanor Valerianovna Belyaeva, who for three decades led the TV program "Music Kiosk", was remembered by the Soviet and Russian television viewers with their soft, intelligent manner with which the TV presenter acquainted the audience with examples of classical music and with modern authors.
Eleanora Belyaeva was born in the Voronezh region, in the village of Ramon. Eleanora's father was a military. The childhood of the future TV host accounted for the time of the Great Patriotic War and subsequent years, heavy for the entire Soviet Union. As Belyaev remembers later in his interview, she remembered all his life with post-war times when the children actually lived on the street.
Thanks to his mother, who dreamed of a musical career for a little Eli, a girl with honors graduated from the central music school in Voronezh in the Piano class. Then there was a Voronezh musical school, and finally, the famous metropolitan "Gnesinka". Initially, the girl planned to enter the Nizhny Novgorod conservatory, but the relatives convinced her to "mark higher". Relatives were right: Belyaeva was accepted at the vocal department of the university already after the first round.
But the singing career was not destined to work out. The next day, after the next exam, Belyaev lost her voice. A few reasons affected: stress due to a divorce with the first spouse, as well as the original mistake of Gnesin teachers - Belsheeva vocals determined as a coluturated soprano, although the girl had a range of lyrics. Because of this, learning was incorrectly, which led to such sad consequences.
Voice loss has become a strong blow to the singer. In addition, remaining after the divorce with a small daughter in his arms, Belyaeva needed to look for livelihoods. For some time she was engaged in rewriting the notes, the skills of the game on the piano - a woman gave private lessons.
Eleonora Belyaev's television hit the will of the chance. Once, having met on the street of his fellow students, Vladimir Fedoseyev, she was mentioned in a conversation about his distress. Fedoseev helped the old familiar to get on television editor to the department of mass genres. Belyaev was translated several times between the departments. She worked with folk creativity, and with classical music, before starting working with Nina Zotov, which Eleanor Valerianovna was grateful to the last days for introducing an inexperienced graduate of the Gnesinsky School into the world of television.
"Musical Kiosk"
"Musical Kiosk", a program-supplement to the "blue light", created in the idea of Alexander Gablovich, first saw the light in 1960. Initially, Eleanor Belyaeva worked as the editor of this TV show, her musical education was pretty pleasant here. However, six months later it happened that the girl had to "close the hole" on the air and spend the "musical kiosk" instead of the sick lead. The first attempt was successful, and Belyaev was appointed a leading program, where she worked more than thirty years.
Due to the lack of advertising, the "music kiosk" was the main source of information for music lovers, because Melomanov was familiar with the next musical innovations.

Like all the events of that time, the "kiosk" did not escape censorship: as the TV presenter recalls, it was strongly recommended not to mention Sergey Rakhmaninov's names and Fedor Shalyapin, who at one time emigrated from the Soviet Union.

The anniversary, thirty-year-old issue of the "Music Kiosk" took place in 1992, this program Belyaeva led together with actor Alexander Shirvindt. Unfortunately, three years later, the Kiosk was closed due to unprofitability. As the TV presenter herself remembered, each new channel head tried to close the program, but its nationwide popularity did not give it to do. Millions of viewers from all over the Soviet Union were clearly disappointed when the program has ceased to broadcast.
