Lyubov Kazarnovskaya is an incomparable opera star. She was applauded by the world's best opera music venues, and to this day the singer continues to delight the audience with her performances. For a long time in the life of Lyubov Yuryevna, vocal career remained in the first place, but meeting with her future husband Robert Rostsik helped her to realize the value of true love and family.
Love story
Initially, Lyubov and Robert had few chances to meet: he lived and worked in Austria, she sang in Russia, gradually going international. All the more surprising for the spouses is a series of events and coincidences that led them to each other. For example, after school, Robert decided to get a language education and, in addition to popular English, he wanted to learn Russian. This choice was prompted by his love for music and, in particular, for the Russian singer Fyodor Chaliapin. And later, in communication with the future wife, there was no language barrier between them.
After graduating from the University of Vienna, Roszik built a successful business career in an Austrian firm, until he suddenly decided to change his field of activity and go to an impresario. In the late 1980s, with the beginning of perestroika, foreigners began to visit the USSR more and more often in search of young Soviet talents. At one of these auditions in 1989, Robert met his future wife. By that time, Kazarnovskaya was already well known in her homeland. Since 1981, she has successfully performed on the stage of the Stanislavsky Moscow Musical Theater, and in 1986 she became a soloist at the Mariinsky Theater.
The singer admitted in an interview that in her youth she had many novels, she adored courtship and male attention. And at the time of her acquaintance with Robert, she was in a relationship, like her future husband, by the way. But this did not stop the lovers from understanding that they should be together. Having met in January, Rostsik and Kazarnovskaya officially legalized their relationship in April. The first and only time Lyubov Yurievna got married at 32 years old. Since then, the couple have been happily married for almost 30 years.
The birth of a son
The help and support of her husband helped the singer to become famous internationally. At a time when her career was rapidly gaining momentum, it was not easy for Kazarnovskaya to decide to have a child. Moreover, she heard many stories of how, against the background of hormonal changes and restructuring of the body, the singers lost their voice or for a long time could not restore it to its previous level.
But Robert really wanted a child, and for some reason Lyubov Yuryevna herself believed that any difficulties would bypass her. So in 1993, the couple had their only son, Andrei. The singer became a mother at the age of 37. With her return to the stage, in fact, everything turned out well: within a month and a half after giving birth, she began rehearsals, and after three - she first appeared in front of the public. In this difficult time, most of the child's care was taken over by her beloved husband.
And later, after returning to Russia, Robert raised his son, while the singer performed, went on tour around the world. She admitted that at such moments she really wanted her husband to be near, but still, the presence of one of the parents was more important to Andrey. As for the upbringing of the child, here the spouses adhered to the carrot and stick tactics: they spoiled a lot in childhood and taught a reasonable attitude to money at a conscious age.
Andrei grew up a long time ago and also linked his life with music. Kazarnovskaya's son graduated from the Moscow Conservatory, plays the violin and conducts. He is truly passionate about his work, which makes his parents very happy. True, the earnings of young musicians are small, but Lyubov Yurievna encourages her son to material independence in every possible way. And sometimes he invites him to play at his concerts, giving him an extra opportunity to earn money.
The young man does not plan to start a family yet, although he is in a relationship. By the way, the singer herself admits that she does not yet imagine herself in the role of a grandmother, but she really hopes to become a wise and kind mother-in-law.
Family life
For the sake of his beloved wife and son, Robert Roszik left his job in Vienna. He followed Kazarnovskaya when she was offered a job in the United States. Then, 10 years later, the family decided to return all together to Russia. One of the reasons for this choice was the high level of musical education they planned to give to their son. According to the singer, in Europe or America she has not met such responsible and talented teachers as in her native country. Therefore, I really wanted Andrei to study music in Moscow.
The secret of family happiness spouses call trust in each other. According to Robert, when you meet your man, you need to appreciate this happiness, given from above, and not overshadow it with resentment, jealousy, quarrels. Lyubov Yuryevna herself admitted that next to her husband she learned to be softer, more feminine, more tolerant. True, at the beginning of her life together, she tried to establish matriarchy in the family. Affected by the upbringing of the general's daughter, accustomed to command and suppress. But very soon Kazarnovskaya realized how lucky she was with her husband. On the contrary, the less you demand or pressure from him, the more willingly he goes to meet, without unnecessary reminders, standing at the head of the family.
Having raised their son, the couple finally got the opportunity to spend maximum time together. Rostsik accompanies his wife on tours, performances, filming, decides organizational issues for her. Robert and Lyubov have many common interests, they are still interested in each other. The spouses love to spend their free time in their own home in Bavaria, reading books, watching TV, and cooking their favorite dishes. Active recreation does not appeal to the couple, since their work is already associated with constant travel, business meetings, and visits to public places.
By the way, Kazarnovskaya even makes purchases in the company of her husband. It was he who had a hand in creating her stage image, when he began to give large unusual jewelry. And very soon they became an integral part of the singer's image. Robert helps his wife with the choice of concert outfits, unmistakably determining what suits her. For 30 years of marriage, they have become truly close and dear people, and, moreover, they are not at all tired of each other. On the contrary, the opera star admits that her husband “needs as much as air”.
