Oleg Skripka

Oleg Skrypka is a talented and popular Ukrainian singer and musician, the permanent leader of the Vopli Vidoplyasova group. Creativity made Oleg famous both in his native country and far beyond its borders, and the original arrangements are recognizable by fans from the first chords.

The biography of Oleg Skripka is rich in travel. The musician was born on May 24, 1964 in Tajikistan, in the small village of Gafurov. The Skripka family is multinational: the father is from Ukraine, and the mother is Russian. The mother of the future star worked as a teacher at school, and her father worked as a doctor in the radiology department. The sultry southern climate negatively affected the health of Oleg Skripka's mother, and the parents decided to move to Murmansk.

Little Oleg studied diligently, however, due to his violent disposition, he sometimes got involved in fights. Teachers praised Violin for her successes in the exact sciences, but, as time has shown, fate was preparing the boy for the path of a musician. After some time, the Skripka family moves again - this time to the city of Kirovsk, and then to Ukraine, where the matured Oleg begins to take an interest in music. It is safe to say that as a musician Oleg Skrypka took place long before his first success on stage. The singer independently mastered playing the button accordion and trumpet and immediately became “his own” in the new music school.

However, interest in the exact sciences was not forgotten, and in 1982 Oleg entered the full-time department of the Kiev Polytechnic, where he became a specialist in radio engineering, and even worked for some time at one of the factories in Kiev. Violin graduated from the institute in 1987. This year has become important for the musician's fans: the group "Vopli Vidoplyasova" is born. A new stage in the artist's life began.

Having decided to finally connect life with music, Oleg Skrypka went through the cities and villages of Ukraine to study song traditions, folk culture and music. Oleg Skripka's songs are largely imprinted on ancient ethnic music. Many developments made on such trips later formed the basis of the repertoire of the Vopli Vidoplyasova collective. Moreover, Skrypka himself has repeatedly stressed in many interviews that his task is to preserve the national cultural traditions of Ukraine.

In 1987, the long-awaited popularity came to the previously unknown collective. This happened, firstly, because of the composition "Dances". Oleg Skripka later admitted that this song became decisive in the group's musical career. And secondly, in 1987 "Vopli Vidoplyasova" received the first long-awaited prize at one of the Kiev rock festivals.

At the end of the 80s, the republic of the Soviet Union was embraced by the fashion for everything ethnic, therefore, the collective that performed music in the folk style became more and more popular. Vopli Vidoplyasov has toured hundreds of music festivals held in the USSR and neighboring countries. The young group had the honor to sing on the stages of St. Petersburg, Vilnius, Warsaw, Moscow and all major cities of Ukraine.

In 1990, Oleg Skripka's group began touring foreign countries. The list includes Israel, Switzerland, Russia, Portugal, Latvia and America. The concerts of Oleg Skripka and his team were popular. Everywhere the collective was met by fans who liked the musical creativity of the Ukrainian group. Until 1995, the members of the group worked in France, since they managed to conclude several very interesting contracts there.

The French public also reacted favorably to the musicians' creativity, and in this country the repertoire of "Vopley Vidoplyasov" is replenished with three albums. The group is gradually becoming not only popular, but also, as they say, cult. Each concert of Oleg Skripka and his colleagues on the stage gathers a huge audience. In 1996, the collective returned to Ukraine, where it continued its creative work on new discs, and a year later, in 1997, another cult composition by Oleg Skrypka, "Spring", appeared.

In 2001, the musician decides to try his hand at solo projects, while continuing to work with the group. Another creative brainchild of Oleg Skrypka, the importance of which is difficult to overestimate, is the ethnofestival "Land of the Mriy", the purpose of which the musician outlined is to instill respect and interest in the original folklore of Ukraine.

Oleg showed talent both as a musician and performer and as an actor, starring in the movie "Evenings on a Farm near Dikanka", where the beautiful Ani Lorak became his partner on the set. The video for this song is perhaps no less popular than the film itself, and a photo of Oleg Skripka in the image of Vakula appeared in the collection of every fan.

In addition to Evenings, Skrypka took part in such television musical films as Cinderella, The Milkmaid from Khatsapetovka and the comedy Day of the Radio. Also, the musician did not give up filming in the show “Voice. Children ”, where he showed himself as a professional musician and as a talented teacher. The girl Anya, a student of Oleg Skripka, wins the competition, adding one more star to the singer's collection of victories.

Oleg himself also masters new types of creativity in the project "Dancing with the Stars", where he achieves success, taking second place among the contestants. In addition to the main creative work, Oleg Skrypka manages to translate the songs of his idol Viktor Tsoi into Ukrainian, which wins huge gratitude from fans of rock music.

Life in France gave the singer not only great inspiration for creativity, but also the first serious feeling. Marie Ribot became the first wife of Oleg Skripka. The couple met in a theater cabaret, where Marie performed at the time. The girl turned out to be the only person from the company who knew English.

This fact became decisive: Oleg decided to get to know the beautiful French woman better, and soon the lovers got married. However, when the musician decided to return to his homeland, the woman chose to stay in France, and the marriage broke up. The rocker himself later admitted to reporters that the divorce from Marie was painful and it is still unpleasant for him to remember it. The violin does not even advertise the photos of the first wife, none of the journalists managed to find a single joint photo of the creative couple.

The second wife of Oleg Skripka, this time unofficial, was Natalya Syd. The couple has still maintained a relationship, but is in no hurry to register a marriage, although four children were born in this union - daughters Zoryan and Elizabeth and sons Taras and Roman. A father with many children admits that he loves to spend time with his family and believes that this is his favorite type of vacation.

Spouses rarely attend noisy events together, but when this happens, Skripka's wife always looks modest. Despite this, the looks of Oleg Skrypka's fans are riveted on the beautiful Natalia: the fact is that a woman prefers to wear clothes in ethnic Ukrainian style. With this she won the hearts of Oleg Skripka's fans.

Now Oleg Skripka, like the Vopli Vidoplyasova group, continues his creative work, performances and tours. A musician, without exaggeration, is a person whose opinion is important to fans. This fact served him in disservice: the scandal around the name of Oleg Skripka in 2017 seriously shaken the musician's reputation.

Oleg Skrypka's incorrect statement about Russia and about the Ukrainian language has spread throughout the media. The fact is that the musician suggested isolating people who do not know the Ukrainian language in the ghetto. Later, the singer and performer explained that such a phrase did not have the meaning that the journalists meant, taking the words out of context.
