Pyotr Leshchenko - "The King of Russian Tango", owner of a breathtaking, soft baritone voice - was born on June 14, 1898 in a village Isaeva in Ukraine. His father was a clerk, mother - illiterate. During the First World War, his mother and stepfather moved to Kishinev (now part of Moldavia). As a result Leshchenko has been claimed as a national by Russia, Ukraine, Moldova and Romania. In his early childhood he sang in a church choir and learned how to play the guitar and the balalaika. After the war Pyotr worked at various restaurants performing small theatrical acts, mostly dancing. After the revolution, in Paris he took some ballet lessons to perform with his Latvian wife Zinaida, who was a dancer. Their act was a mixture of ballet, folklore dance and European tango, which was so popular it led to tours to Egypt, Persia, Turkey, Germany and Britain. It was at Riga, when he improvised a kind of a gypsy/tango singing to make up for the absence of his pregnant wife, that he discovered he could sing in front of an audience. Skon he started to perform regularily. In 1935 he was at the peak of his success. Though he still included old Russian romances, and even Soviet songs , like „Serdtse" („A Heart" ) - tango from the Stalinist movie production, which was originally sung by Leonid Utyosov - in a different version, as „Kak mnogo devushek horoshih" (How Many Goud Girls Are Around!"). ) In his repertoire, one of his favourites was a Polish composer Jerzy Petersburski, but he ...

uk.youtube.com "El Día De La Victoria". Compuesta en Marzo de 1975 por el poeta Vladimir Kharitonov y por el compositor David Tukhmanov con ocasión del 30 aniversario de la victoria sobre la Alemania nazi. Interpretada originalmente por Lev Levchenko (aquí en la TV Soviética en 1976) se convirtió, pese a la reticencia inicial, en un tema muy popular y querido, hasta el punto de que se sigue interpretando todos los 8 de Mayo en los actos conmemorativos del Día De La Victoria. Russian lyrics День Победы, как он был от нас далёк, Как в костре потухшем таял уголёк. Были версты, обгорелые, в пыли — Этот день мы приближали как могли. Chorus: Этот День Победы Порохом пропах, Это праздник С сединою на висках. Это радость Со слезами на глазах. День Победы ! День Победы ! День Победы ! Дни и ночи у мартеновских печей Не смыкала наша Родина очей. Дни и ночи битву трудную вели — Этот день мы приближали как могли. Chorus Здравствуй, мама, возвратились мы не все... Босиком бы пробежаться по росе ! Пол-Европы, прошагали, пол-Земли — Этот день мы приближали как могли. Chorus x 2 Romanization Den' Pobedy, kak on byl ot nas dalyok, Kak v kostre potukhshem tayal ugolyok. Byli versty, obgorelye, v pyli — Etot den' my priblizhali kak mogli. Chorus: Etot Den' Pobedy Porokhom propakh, Eto prazdnik, S sedinoyu na viskakh. Eto radost' So slezami na glazakh. Den' Pobedy! Den' Pobedy! Den' Pobedy! Dni i nochi u martenovskikh pechey, Ne smykala nasha Rodina ochey. Dni i nochi bitvu trudnuyu veli ...
