His hits – “Weather in the House”, “Three Roses”, “Wall” and others – have been heard by audiences for decades. On April 27, Larisa Dolina will celebrate her 50th birthday on stage with a big concert at Crocus City Hall. The artist told reporters that she will perform 32 songs during this evening. And it won’t just be pop songs. After all, Larisa Alexandrovna is subject to many genders.
Music
She started her career as a jazz performer. After graduating from the Gnessin Music College in Moscow, and then studying at the pop faculty in the vocal class, Dolina performed as part of the jazz orchestras of Armenia and Azerbaijan. But since the 1980s, she chose to build a solo career. At this stage, fate was especially favorable to the singer – Dolina collaborated with outstanding composers, including V. Reznikov, M. Tanich; with their help, the songs “I want to be loved”, “Time in the house”, “I am offended” were created …
In 1993 she became Honored Artist of Russia. And in 1997 her dream came true – she performed with the Russian State Academic Symphony Orchestra.
In 2002, Larisa Dolina decided to move away from pop music and returned to her favorite jazz. She records a disc entitled “Bye, no, bye”.
Theater
In 2017, the artist begins to shine on the theater stage – she is invited to play the role of Mrs. Lovett in the musical “Sweeney Todd, the Maniac Barber of Fleet Street”. The director was Alexei Frandetti. The valley played a very peculiar heroine, the image of which, in her own words, was not easy for her. But looking at the artist’s absolutely free existence in the role, I can’t believe it:
Connection of generations
Larisa Dolina is one of the few representatives of the older generation of artists who willingly accepts duets with young contemporary performers. The singer highly appreciates the talent of Mary Gu, Marie Crimbreri, Zivert. “I really liked Artem Kacher, with whom I would even like to record a duet”, admitted Larisa Alexandrovna in a recent interview . She also collaborates with Burito – the singer wrote a solo song for the valley, and together they performed the song “Trap”.
The People’s Artist interacts with talented young people as a teacher – she teaches pop-jazz vocals to students of the Moscow State Film Institute (by the way, at a concert in honor of the anniversary of her creative activity, Larisa Alexandrovna will go on stage with some of them). According to the artist, she is quite strict with her students:
“I have introduced a rule at the department so that at each exam children must announce the authors of the compositions they sing… I also oblige our children to study the biographies of composers and poets,” he said. she one day shared on social networks. But this is not even rigor, but discipline, without which (together with diligence) it is impossible to become popular and beloved. Who, if not her, to find out.
