Shmuel Kaminetsky welcomed the actor and suggested to make such meetings traditional. In honor of the visitor the chorus "Bnej Baruch" has sang "Lekhaim" and a song about Dnepropetrovsk. Then Alexander Jakovlevich has suggested to ask him any questions which he was answering within one hour.
People asked about the sources of his creativity, about compatibility of his two occupations (medicine and singing), about the modern music, about the purpose of his life as the Jew and about mission of Jews in this world.
