Sviatlana began singing in childhood. She studied successfully at the Lepel Music School and participated in numerous vocal competitions, so after graduating, she made a firm choice of profession. She easily enrolled in the Novopolotsk Music College, majoring in choral conducting, and came to work in her native Lepel region. Sviatlana generously passed on her vocal skills and artistry to the young students of the "Sviatlana" pop studio, which she created at the district House of Culture. Art enthusiasts became acquainted with the performances of the young artists at the "Flowers of Lepel Region" vocal creativity festival, held at the House of Culture.
While engaged in her favourite work, Sviatlana constantly improved her creative style and deepened her professional skills. She completed her studies extramurally at the Belarusian State University of Culture and Arts and successfully participated in numerous regional and republican creative competitions. Among them are the television festivals "Zornaya Rostan" and "Take the Song with You". At one time, the young singer became the winner of the republican festival "Belarus – My Song".
Currently, Sviatlana teaches piano at the Stai Children's Art School of Music and Traditional Culture and does not part with her creative pursuits for a moment. She delights the residents of the agro-town of Stai not only with her vocals but also with her dancing skills, and together with her colleague Yauhen Yasiukevich, she prepares humorous miniatures.
It is no coincidence that based on the results of her work for 2012, Sviatlana Tkachenka was recognised as the best in her profession among cultural workers. Well, may this latest success be a bright start to new heights.
Sviatlana SILVANOVICH.
