Childhood

Parents Polina divorced when she was still very young, by mutual decision she was left with her father. Oleg Osetinsky was injured in his childhood and could not play the piano, so he decided to raise his daughter as a great pianist. In his upbringing he used enough cruel methods, often beat and humiliated daughter. At age 13, the Ossetian Polina rebelled and declared her father's methods throughout the country. Then the public and learned how difficult was the childhood of the Soviet child prodigy, that's what Polina was often called.

Nevertheless, the Moscow apartment of the Ossetian was frequented by world-famous celebrities, for example, George Soros or Susan Eisenhower. Oleg Osetinsky himself called his technique "Double-stress". He heavily loaded his daughter, and by the age of 8 Pauline had in her repertoire more than 30 hours of works that she could play by heart.

The escape

By adolescence, Pauline could not stand the pressure from his father. Regular beating led to the fact that she told the whole country about his methods on the program "600 seconds", which was conducted by Alexander Nevzorov. After this event, Osetinskaya Polina began to live with her mother in Leningrad. There she began professional training first in a music school at the conservatory, then graduated from an external conservatory, and completed postgraduate studies in Moscow.

Piano music remained the main component of Polina's life thanks to the outstanding teacher Marina Wolf. It was she who helped the girl to overcome all the horrors of childhood and again to sit down at the piano. At first Polina performed with her teacher's class. She was glad that no one else was pressing her, but she understood that all former merits could be forgotten, if not improve themselves. This is what she is doing to this day.

In it, the pianist described the most terrible secrets of her childhood, for example, that the father raped girls who were brought to him for training music.

From the father's side after the publication of Pauline's autobiography, threats and insults flew. He often threatened to sue his daughter. He called her ungrateful and tried in every possible way to suppress her will, but nothing happened. Most recently, father and daughter reconciled, Osetinskaya Polina sincerely forgave the old parent.

The girl was married to Igor Poroshin, a sports journalist. But now the couple broke up. Pauline does not like to talk about the reasons.

Users of the Internet at the end of 2015 actively discussed rumors about the beatings that Igor applied to Pauline. Many believe that a woman whose family had suffered many shocks as a child so would not tolerate such an attitude. Meanwhile, now the couple do not live together, but the famous pianist in all interviews calls Igor a good father.
