Selected text
I studied in an ordinary school in the Caucasus up to the fifth grade, and when in 1939 we moved to Leningrad, I went to the fifth grade in Leningrad. My favorite subjects were natural sciences and literature. I was not so fond of mathematics. I was a good pupil, getting good and excellent marks. I possessed a good voice, and the teacher of singing, Antonina Kharitonovna, a very intelligent woman, made me sing solo. She advised me to enter some children cultural school. I sang in a chorus until the outbreak of war [11].
