Conversations with Isaac Schwartz 1994-2005

This book about Isaac Iosifovic Schwartz is a wonderful musician, the author of many symphonic works, music to numerous ballets, performances and especially films (more than 110).
The book is not a study of his life and creativity. This conversation with him and the memory of him, describes the meetings, talk about cinema and directors for whom he wrote music: Karamazov Brothers", "White Desert Sun", "Station Career", "Dersu Uzala", "War of Pretty Happiness" , and many other things.
A friendship with the poet Bulat Okudzhava played a big role in the composition of the composer, on whose verses he wrote thirty-two songs. B.Okuzhava highly appreciated the gift of I.I. Shvanta "to extract music from the poem itself, the very one, the only one, which only exists for each line"
