Leonid Fedorov

On Orthodox Christmas - 2019, the frontman of the AuktsYon group delighted fans of his own solo creativity by revealing to the world another winter album called "The Hymn to the Plague". Leonid Fyodorov and Igor Krutogolov (bassist of "Kruzenshtern and Steamship") set to music 15 immortal poems by Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin, starting with "Insomnia" and ending with "Chizhik". A little earlier, before the New Year holidays, colleagues released a video for the single "Talisman".

On the 8th day of the New Year, 1963, a son, Lenya, was born in the Leningrad Fedorov family, who had a craving for melodic art, as they say, from the cradle. As the rock musician has repeatedly confessed in numerous interviews, the parents strongly supported the child in his endeavors and respected his interests.

When in the 8th grade the boy put together his first boy band, Father Valentin created guitars for the band members with his own hands. However, his debut performance at the prom in his own school turned out to be a failure for Leonid - his voice treacherously sat down.

On duty and creativity, he subsequently moved to the capital of Russia, while completely not feeling nostalgia for the city where he spent his childhood, and only preferring to watch the development and changes of St. Petersburg from the outside.

In the post-Olympiad 1981, the graduate successfully passed the entrance exams for the Physics and Mathematics of the Polytechnic University, because there was a military department, which made it possible to obtain the rank of officer, avoiding military service. After graduating from high school, the guy worked for several years in a design bureau. But he got bored with this business, and in view of the circumstances, the final conviction appeared that music is something worth doing all your life.

Moreover, he did not decide to leave the job himself, but they helped him, offering him to write a letter of resignation of his own free will because of a two-day truancy. And this despite the intercession of the entire department.

Once, in an interview with reporters, the singer touched on his family biography, saying that his great-grandfather was the People's Artist, founder and leading actor of the BDT Nikolai Fedorovich Monakhov. The man was mentioned in "Walking in Torment" by Aleksey Tolstoy, was friends with Maxim Gorky and Alexander Benois, and was subsequently poisoned in Shakespeare's way by his young 17-year-old wife. Although the famous great-grandson is convinced that it was not without the intervention of the NKVD.

In 1978, the Phaeton trio was born, which, in addition to Fedorov, included bassist Dmitry Zaichenko and drummer Alexei Vikhrev. Then the group was transformed into a quintet, replenished with two members - Mikhail Malov and Viktor Bondarik, who "transplanted" Zaichenko for the organ. Later, Sergey Skvortsov was added, who was responsible for sound and light.

Since 1983, everything in the established team began to change. First, the name - instead of the original version, the sonorous "Auction" was established. Secondly, the team was admitted to the famous Leningrad rock club. Thirdly, the extravagant Oleg Garkusha more than organically fit into it, with his arrival the concerts turned into real stage shows with elements of buffoonery.

Spellingly incorrect, but musically correct "AuktsYon" won the hearts of listeners and critics at lightning speed, the result of recognition and love was a foreign tour in 1989 along with Tsoev's "Kino" and Mamonov's "Sounds of Mu", as well as the recording of the CD "How I Became a traitor. "

With France, in addition to the fateful acquaintance with the poet Alexei Khvostenko (thanks to him, the "Teapot of Wine" with his "Secret" saw the light), there is also a scandal. Vladimir Veselkin, who held the post of a dancer in the collective, demonstrated the striptease movements on the stage, for which the group was later criticized by Komsomolskaya Pravda and Soviet Culture.

Despite the noisy success of "AuktsYon", Fedorov found himself in solo work. In the late 90s, the debut "Four Half Tons" was released under the authorship of the team leader. According to some reports, the name had a real background - its creator owed $ 4.5 thousand to the release of the album.

In the future, the artist's discography was replenished with new works, as well as collections, where there was a place for cooperation with Anri Volokhonsky, Sergei Starostin, Vladimir Volkov ("Moths" and "Tayal") and other celebrities. By the way, director Alexei Balabanov has repeatedly turned to the work of the group and its leader. The hit “Road” from the disc “Bird” was honored to sound in the cult “Brother-2”, and 8 compositions (“Soul”, “Spring”, “Elegy”) - in the drama “I want to too”.

It often happens that colleagues over the years of work become, figuratively speaking, relatives. In the case of Leonid Fedorov, this actually happened. In the late 70s, Viktor Bondarik was friends with Oleg Garkusha's sister Sveta, who in 1983 became the wife of the leader of their team. The wedding was played by no means rock 'n' roll, but quite ordinary, for fifty guests.

The woman gave her beloved husband two daughters - Valentina and Ksenia, who followed in the footsteps of the famous father and were seriously interested in music. Subsequently, in the personal lives of Svetlana and Leonid, a discord happened, and the marriage broke up.

In 2003, in the Crimea, a man was brought together by fate with Lydia Bentsianova. The novel developed so rapidly that a year later the lovers legalized their relationship. For Fedorov, his wife is not only a muse, but also the second director of AuktsYon and a co-author of the Ulitka label.

It is also known that the performer is a deeply religious Christian, and he came to this through Alexei Khvostenko. According to the rocker, only faith gave him real joy, which had never been brought before by travel, new impressions or acquaintances.

Leonid Valentinovich continues to develop creatively both as a solo artist and as part of the legendary "AuktsYon". As mentioned above, at the beginning of 2019, the singer, to the delight of listeners (especially literary scholars and philologists), released the "Hymn to the Plague."
