A very rare original of a famous artist of Russian emigration .   Boris Semyonovich Rubashkin (real name-Chernorubashkin) He began studying vocals and continued to sing in a restaurant in the early 60s, he met with a producer, with whom he signed a contract for the first four records. The first record with Russian songs performed by the singer was released in 1965. In 1967, the artist won the competition and received his first engagement as a baritone at the Salzburg Opera. At this point, his work in the restaurant ended, and he left for the professional opera stage. The singer moves from Vienna to Salzburg. He was already 35 years old when he began his singing career. With the beginning of his solo opera career, the surname Chernorubashkin was shortened to "Rubashkin" - this was more profitable from a commercial point of view, because for a Western listener, his real name sounded too difficult. From 1967 to 1976, Boris Rubashkin worked at the Salzburg Opera (first baritone), and toured extensively. Since the early 70s, the singer began to successfully perform Russian songs and romances in his programs. Russian Russian singer-songwriter Rubashkin made a musical arrangement based on the famous Russian song "Katyusha" in the early 70s, commissioned by a French publisher, and performed his famous Russian modern dance "Kazachok" on stage, which became a worldwide hit and made his performer a millionaire. Records with different versions of "Kazachka" became "gold" and "platinum". More than 10 million CDs have been sold worldwide. European newspapers of that period wrote: "Vienna gave the world two fashionable dances-Strauss 'Waltz' and Rubashkin's 'Kazachok'...".  ...more
