 | Vladimir Vavilov (1925 - 1973) Russie
Vladimir Fyodorovich Vavilov (5 May 1925 ? 3
November 1973) was a Russian guitarist, lutenist
and composer. He was a student of P. Isakov
(guitar) and I. Admoni (composition) at the
Rimski-Korsakov Music College in St Petersburg. He
played an important part in the Early Music
Revival in the Soviet Union.
Vavilov was active as a performer on both lute and
guitar, as a music editor for a state music
publishing house, and more important, as a
composer. He routinely ascribed his own works to
other composers, usually Renaissance or Baroque
(occasionally from later eras), usually with total
disregard of a style that should have been
appropriate, in the spirit of Fetis, Kreisler,
Manuel Ponce,[citation needed] Casadesus and other
mystificators of the previous eras. His works
achieved enormous circulation, and some of them
achieved true folk music status, with several
poems set to his melodies.
The most famous of his hoaxes were
"Сanzona by Francesco da Milano". Poets A.
Volkhonsky and A. Khvostenko would later set
lyrics on this music, the song called "The City of
Gold" song (in Russian "Город Золотой"). The song,
in turn, would become a hit in the 1980's when it
was performed by Aquarium for the score to the
film Assa.
"Mazurka by Andrey Sychra",
"Elegy by Mikhail Vyssotsky",
"Russian Melody (tremolo study) by Mikhail
Vyssotsky",
"Ricercar by Niccolo Nigrino",
"Impromptu" by Balakirev, and most famous of all,
"Ave Maria" (Vavilov himself wrote it under
Anonymous. A few years after it was first
released, Mark Szachin added "by Giulio Caccini"
to it[citation needed]). It is often performed to
this day, notably by Inessa Galante, Andrea
Bocelli, Sumi Jo, Charlotte Church inter alia. (Hide extended text) ... (Read all)
