00:00:02cultural palace, to be able to perform and
00:00:06to preserve our national identity
00:00:09and tradition. Thank you all
00:00:13who today and throughout
00:00:16the years have contributed to
00:00:19the organization and support of this
00:00:22festival. And the first prize is awarded to soloists,
00:00:25instrumentalists, Mr. Daniel
00:00:28Țăran. I invite him.
00:01:06sit aside,
00:01:16Sturza Bulandra Theater and
00:03:06Tell me, please, did you expect to win this award today
00:03:09at the 22nd edition of this prestigious festival?
00:03:13Honestly, I somewhat expected it, I
00:03:16prepared my repertoire as best I knew
00:03:19leave how and sang it exactly as I felt from the soul and it turned out well in the
00:03:22end. Thank you and we wish you continued success. Thank
00:03:26you. I saw young people
00:03:30awarded, but I also saw people
00:03:33who mean a lot for Romanian folklore
00:03:36and for the study of folklore. In
00:03:39these 20-something years, in these
00:03:4322 editions, messages
00:03:46have been conveyed on this stage and the one in Alba Iulia
00:03:50for the future. In
00:03:53time, Mr. Liviu
00:03:56Necșolescu, Mr. Cipariu, Mr. Stoica
00:04:00have gone to heaven, but they have left a legacy
00:04:04that, as you can see, his son and grandchildren
00:04:07are carrying this festival
00:04:09forward. I say this because we sometimes
00:04:13doubt that we don't have a secure
00:04:16future, but yes, look at our children, at our
00:04:20grandchildren, because they know what they have to do to preserve the cultural
00:04:23identity of the Romanian people. Today
00:04:27we are awarding some young people who will
00:04:31certainly be stars of Romanian folklore, but
00:04:34it is also important that here on
00:04:37the stage of the Golden Grape festival
00:04:41Romanians from all over the world perform,
00:04:43and that is essential. We were talking about patriotism, which, without
00:04:47acclaiming it, shouting it everywhere, the familialescu,
00:04:51Jidvei, Romania, carries it forward
00:04:54with achievements and with the pride of being Romanian
00:04:58by doing, not by talking.

00:07:40Daniel Breban, congratulations, prize.
00:07:42Vocal soloist, how do you feel? Thank you for
00:07:46the congratulations, I feel honored, I am experiencing an
00:07:49ineffable joy, here at
00:07:52Blaj, I don't know what to
00:07:55say, I'm very happy that I won
00:07:59this award, I've wanted for a very long time to
00:08:02be admitted to
00:08:05the Golden Grapes and look, this year I
00:08:08succeeded, I'm living a dream that
00:08:11I wanted when I was a child, I confess, congratulations Daniel and
00:08:15good luck, thank you from the bottom of my heart, all the
00:08:17best, for me this is not
00:08:21just a festival, just an event, but a spiritual
00:08:24legacy that I received from my grandfather,
00:08:27who, along with
00:08:29masters,
00:08:32who, along with masters Stelian Stoica and Sergiu Cipariu,
00:08:36laid the foundations of this
00:08:37festival.
00:08:44and it is a great honor to be able to carry it
00:08:46forward. I believe that music, folklore and
00:08:50traditions have the power to bring us together, to remind
00:08:54us who we are and where we come from. And this
00:08:58year, competitors from the historical communities
00:09:01of Romanians from outside the borders performed
00:09:04on the festival stage, and this not only makes us happy
00:09:08and honors us, but for us I think it is the most beautiful
00:09:12confirmation that this festival fulfills
00:09:15its purpose, that of bringing us together wherever we
00:09:19are and of rejoicing that we
00:09:22are Romanians.
00:09:26We congratulate all the competitors who performed on the festival
00:09:29stage and we sincerely thank the members
00:09:33of the jury, the members of the organizing team and,
00:09:36last
00:09:39but not least, we thank you, the audience,
00:09:43for keeping this festival
00:09:44alive.
00:09:49This year, the grand prize of
00:09:52the festival goes to Historical Maramureș,
00:09:55a young woman who performed on this stage with great
00:09:59emotion and who managed to convey it to us
00:10:03tenfold. Congratulations Iulia
00:10:05Vlad.
00:10:11Ah!
00:10:20Oh, proud and the birds
00:10:22sing.
00:10:55You are also proud,
00:10:58and the grass

00:12:18oh.
00:12:28Iulia Vlad, congratulations, the grand trophy at the 22nd edition of
00:12:32the Golden Grape Festival. How do you feel? I feel honored
00:12:36first of all and blessed because I hold in my hand the trophy of this
00:12:39edition. A valuable prize both for me as a young
00:12:43performer and for everything that means the
00:12:46musical and folk domain in Romania. I am honored and
00:12:50I thank everyone who contributed to my formation
00:12:54up to this day for me to win this award. I see you as such
00:12:58a gentle, delicate, refined person. Where does such
00:13:01strength come from to win this trophy? The strength and grace are due to good
00:13:05God, who gave me a talent that, along
00:13:08with the support of my parents, I managed to multiply and today reap
00:13:11the fruits of the hard work and love I have for Romanian
00:13:15folklore. How long have you been preparing for this
00:13:18festival? I started singing when I was little, I think that's where
00:13:21the first preparations began, so to speak, even from... at the age of three
00:13:25or four I was enrolled in the children's palace in Baia Mare by my parents, I did
00:13:29light music for many years, I also approached religious,
00:13:32church music and now I have come to
00:13:35know my greatest love, folklore.
00:13:59How tall is the quince
00:14:01tree, my
00:14:03love,
00:14:06for the autumn has taken it, my
00:14:10love,
00:14:13but from my heart, my
00:14:16love, what it put there cannot
00:14:20be taken away, what it put there cannot
00:14:24be taken away, my love.
00:14:43For it put a pain of longing, my
00:14:47love,
00:14:50it won't be taken away until you
00:14:53die, my love,
00:14:56for it put
00:14:59a pain of love, it won't be taken
00:15:03away until I waste away, it won't be taken
00:15:06away until I waste away, my love.
00:15:37Many
00:15:38loves,
00:15:41I hear her singing,
00:15:45my love, the young man in the
00:15:48leaf, my love, the young man in the leaf,
00:15:52my love, my love,
00:15:56I hear the voice of the cuckoo, my love,
00:15:59I hear the beautiful girl's song, my love,
00:16:03I hear the beautiful girl's song, my love.
00:16:40You,
00:16:43finding yourself
00:16:47in this
00:16:50new delight,
00:16:53do not choose me to spread happiness
00:16:57in the world, it cannot be otherwise, the important thing is
00:17:00only the joy of living, on
00:17:03one condition, to keep the secret.
00:17:35I believe and I am
00:17:38not the only one
00:17:41that the melancholic,
00:17:44nostalgic time of actors
00:17:47who feed on stage
00:17:50talent and intuition is dramatically
00:17:54setting, of course it cannot be without them, God forbid, and that an actor
00:17:57who is much more in tune with
00:18:01the times, even the crazy ones we are
00:18:05living now, is appearing more and more, and who
00:18:08has a somewhat more clearly defined cultural background than in other times,
00:18:12to be
00:18:16or not
00:18:17to be?
00:18:21That is the question.
00:18:24He was considered the most beautiful Hamlet on the Romanian
00:18:27stage, one of the most talented actors
00:18:31in Eminescu's recitation,
00:18:34a gifted poet and writer who knew how to
00:18:36scatter his grace among mortals,
00:18:40leaving us enveloped by his indulgent
00:18:43and tender smile: to
00:18:46sleep,
00:18:50nothing more,
00:18:54don't me,
00:18:57but she
00:19:00left because
00:19:03she had started
00:19:08to leave, the one who wrote
00:19:11how should I present myself better
00:19:13to love, perhaps in the shirt my mother
00:19:17weaves, dreaming that only in it I will cross the border,
00:19:20dreaming that it is the shirt of immortality, and
00:19:23who wished to sleep where the snow is
00:19:27eternal, joked with us, imagining a
00:19:30world of play and insatiable passions.
00:19:33Born in
00:19:36October 1954 in
00:19:39Beiuș, Bihor County, Romania, Adrian
00:19:43Virgil Pintea had a happy childhood,
00:19:47learning from an early age to play the violin and to love
00:19:50reading.
00:19:53His passion for art would leave its mark on his
00:19:57existence, succeeding in the admission to the Ion Luca Caragiale Institute of Theatrical
00:20:01and Cinematographic Art in Bucharest, which he
00:20:05graduated from in 1970.
00:20:12His anthological performance in the play Romeo and
00:20:15Juliet by William Shakespeare, directed by
00:20:18Cătălina Buzoianu, where he had Mariana Buruiană as
00:20:21his partner, was to establish him as a gifted
00:20:25actor with passion and talent.
00:20:29Divine night, I fear that everything is nothing but a dream
00:20:32spun by night.
00:20:36I will do as you wish.
00:20:38and baptize me again if you call me
00:20:40love,
00:20:44from now on I am no longer Romeo, I am
00:20:46love. The audience was captivated by
00:20:50his roles full of flavor and
00:20:54lucidity over time. The idea of finding a suitor for Laura
00:20:57began to play a decisive role in his
00:21:00mother's plans.
00:21:03When I found out, a terrible
00:21:06fear took hold of me.
00:21:10If only it were some illness, because I am not afraid of
00:21:13death.
00:21:18For whom was that?
00:21:38I think for me.
00:21:50You hurried, I must escape from here at any
00:21:54cost.
00:21:59He was admired on the stage of the Bucharest National Theater
00:22:02in performances at the Lucia
00:22:06at Notara.
00:22:21and followed the path, foreshadowing the thread of
00:22:24life, about which he wrote in the essay "The Actor's Soul"
00:22:28published in the volume "The American's
00:22:31Land". The actor's soul
00:22:34appears in the agonizing lights of the stage to
00:22:37announce majestic, wild and
00:22:41in love, generous, the thread
00:22:43of life.
00:22:48Is it healed? It can't be otherwise,
00:22:53gentlemen. The Romanian artist Adrian Virgil Pintea also
00:22:58had a brilliant academic
00:23:01career, he was a very beloved professor by his
00:23:04students, to whom he was at once a mentor,
00:23:08friend, and also a critic. The important thing is that
00:23:11they are quite young and they have good,
00:23:14positive energy and a brilliance that
00:23:18age gives. Yes, and I say that
00:23:22they also have a beginning of authentic understanding in
00:23:25what they have to do, and in 2002 he defended
00:23:29his doctoral thesis in the field of theater with the thesis
00:23:32Hamlet or the Lucid Actor, and it corresponds
00:23:35to a need for rigor that I fundamentally have, being
00:23:39Transylvanian,
00:23:41but also to a need for rigor in which I truly
00:23:44believe more and more with the visible passage
00:23:47of age. Now I would
00:23:50drink even boiling
00:23:54blood,
00:23:58I would commit such
00:23:59atrocities,
00:24:02that the day itself would
00:24:04tremble.
00:24:08You will believe why it doesn't work. He was noticed by great directors and
00:24:12cast in numerous films, from
00:24:15his performance in The Phalanstery, to Zeno in
00:24:18Lights and Shadows, from the piano tuner in
00:24:21Adela, to Avraam Iancu in the television play directed
00:24:25by Domnița Munteanu.
00:24:28I see, I see, father, I see mother
00:24:30Suglieni,
00:24:32with cheeks like a wild rose
00:24:34flower.
00:24:40From his filmography, we mention Pădureanca, The Death of an
00:24:43Artist, Nostradamus, Miss
00:24:46Cristina. He's tricking me.
00:24:53"But if he says anything else, I'll strangle him and threaten him with humor until he tells me everything
00:24:57he knows, but the role for which he remained in the
00:25:00memory of cinephiles was Iancu
00:25:03Jianu from the films Iancu Jianu
00:25:06the Outlaw and Iancu Jianu
00:25:09the Bailiff."
00:25:12But you still haven't answered what you're doing here. He participated in
00:25:15musical shows, enriching the artists'
00:25:18message with spoken poetry. If I
00:25:21found out
00:25:24that I lost you,
00:25:27Mara, I will
00:25:31listen to her,
00:25:34this enigmatic, dreamy and frenetic artist who
00:25:38recited divinely, played the guitar and composed,
00:25:42and who believed that the actor's work is a
00:25:45sculpture of smoke, said: the actor's
00:25:48soul is alive like bleeding
00:25:51flesh, and troubled by sleeplessness, and
00:25:54translucent like the eternal memory
00:25:58of love. God knows how.
00:26:03The role here
00:26:05has healed. You remain indifferent to everything, if it
00:26:08urges you, if it
00:26:10calls you, what is a wave passes
00:26:13like a wave, do not hope and do not be
00:26:16afraid.
00:26:19Ask yourself what is bad and what is
00:26:22good, everything is
00:26:25old and new
00:26:28everything. Time passes.
00:26:35Time comes.
00:26:39Soon you will witness
00:27:08the first show in Romania that
00:27:11will be broadcast live from
00:27:14the street.
00:27:21We discuss the good or the bad,
00:27:24we move here to the street, everyone can see us.
00:27:28TVR awaits you
00:27:31now.
00:27:39Beyond the Dniester, the truth is often only
00:27:41whispered. People's lives are severely
00:27:45tested by fear, uncertainty and
00:27:47compromise. Week after week, Ion
00:27:51Manole opens the files of a region where
00:27:54people's rights, freedoms and safety are severely
00:27:57affected. Transnistria, life
00:28:01in the grey zone.
00:28:10The spiritual perspective offers you joy
00:28:14and
00:28:14landmarks,
00:28:18reports, interviews, documentaries, portraits of
00:28:22ecclesiastical
00:28:23personalities,
00:28:29religious shows on television.
00:28:32Soul
00:28:39books preserve the symbols and greatness
00:28:43of a nation. From
00:28:44there
00:28:47we draw our strength to move forward and
00:28:51the belief that we can be better.
00:28:53Page
00:28:57by page we relearn what
00:29:00honor, duty, and respect mean. The
00:29:04King's hour, the hour of rediscovered
00:29:06values.
00:29:10Our energy is part of your heart. The joy
00:29:14of being together again week after week means
00:29:17responsibility and love for a job well done. We have
00:29:21histories, diverse generations, young people and
00:29:24legends. We have good music, smiles and a touch of
00:29:27madness, elegance and positive energy. I am Paul
00:29:31Surugiu Fuego and it is a blessing to know you are again
00:29:34with me at the "Drag de Romania Mea" galas.
00:30:19Welcome back to the 2 PM news, I am Alina Stancu, let's look
00:30:22together at the headlines of the edition.
00:30:26A fight between two interlope clans led to the blocking of a national road in
00:30:29Mehedinți, members of the two groups attacked each other with
00:30:33bats and knives.
00:30:36Yellow code for heavy rain in Bucharest and in several counties from tomorrow
00:30:39morning, the weather starts to get worse already today, first in the west of the
00:30:43country and then in the other regions.
