Today legendary singer Vladimir Mulyavin would turn 80
Today we also remember the legendary Vladimir Mulyavin. On this day he would be 80 years old. The People's Artiste of the Soviet Union and Belarus created a band, which was famous in the whole world and gathered thousands of spectators. Pesnyary became a true Belarusian brand and Mulyavin's songs are still loved and appreciated by his fans.
On Vladimir Mulyavin's 80th birthday his hits are heard live on the global web. The Belarusian State Band "Pesnyary" continues the cause of the People's Artiste of the USSR and Belarus in a new form. For 18 years they have been appearing before the audience without the maestro.
They are preparing an album for the Maestro's anniversary. It includes 12 new compositions by contemporary composers, but each of them is written in the trademark Mulyavin musical style. They are inspired by his heritage.
He introduced the whole world to the Belarusian culture, but he was a Belarusian only at heart. Vladimir Mulyavin was born in Sverdlovsk, today's Yekaterinburg. He got to Minsk by invitation,he was offered a position at Belarusian State Philharmonic Society. And here he didn't feel like a stranger. On the contrary, he took up the study of the Belarusian language in order to work with the folk songs. Later he founded the band "Pesnyary" known for its modern interpretation of Belarusian folk songs.
No other Belarusian band has yet managed to surpass their success. Under the leadership of Muliavin, the band broke records in record sales in the USSR. They were the first Soviet vocal band to tour the USA. They were applauded in 56 countries.
