Viktor Korolev

Victor Korolev is a singer in the style of chanson - known not only in "narrow" circles of fans of this genre of songs, but also among a huge number of people who love to listen to lyrical, perky, cheerful music. He gives only positive emotions with his songs, without burdening the listener with social problems.

Victor Korolev was born on July 26, 1961 in Siberia, in the city of Taishet, Irkutsk region. Mom Alexandra Vasilievna worked as a school director, and dad worked as a railway builder on the Abakan-Taishet highway.

He graduated with excellent marks from nine classes of a comprehensive school. He writes about his childhood:

In 1977 he entered the piano school in Kaluga. Graduated with honors in 1981. Viktor Korolyov very fondly recalls the years of study at the school and believes that the knowledge he acquired during his studies was the main baggage for the development of his future career. After a music school, he decided to become an actor and entered the theater institute, but failed the exams.

In 1981, Victor was drafted into the army. He served in the ranks of the Missile Forces in Belarus. He played in the staff orchestra.

After returning from the army, he tried his luck again and in 1984 he entered to study at the Theater Institute. Shchepkin at the Maly Theater, after which, in 1988, he was hired to work in the theater of the musical by Yuri Sherling.

At the same time, Korolev began acting in films. His first film work - the film "The Battle of the Three Kings" directed by Suheil bin Barca (a military story about the liberation movements in Morocco) with Claudia Cardinale as the Queen, released in 1990. Then there were "Silhouette in the window opposite" (1991-1992), "We play" Zombies "" (1992-1993).

After working in the theater for seven months, Viktor Korolev decides to devote himself to music. In 1991 he began his solo career. And in 1992 he already became a diploma winner of the international festival "Golden Deer" in the city of Brasov (Romania), after which a film about the Russian artist was released on Romanian television.

After that, there was a three-year search for my "I" as an artist. Victor Korolev describes these years as the most difficult, but at the same time the happiest in his life.

In 1997, the first video for the song "Bazar - Station" (animation work by Maxim Sviridov) was released, which gave a start to the artist's creative career, which began to move forward quickly. Also studio "Soyuz" released a disc of the same name. Victor Korolev said about this creative start:

After the discography of Viktor Korolev songs were included:

"Cursed love" "Drunk cherry" "And I'm drunk" "For love" "White lilac" "Get out" "Stolen night" "Bite" "La-la-poplar" "Crystal castle" "You are very beautiful"

Victor Korolev often performs in a duet with other artists. He sang very energetically with Irina Krug, the wife of the late singer Mikhail Krug, performing in the lyric genre. Some of the duo's songs were included in his albums. And the song "Bouquet of White Roses" won the hearts of all his fans.

Korolev recorded songs with the "blat-pop" group "Vorovayki" ("Red-haired girl", "You got me"). This group, which was created by Yuri Almazov, although it performs in the genre "Chanson", but rather differs in "pop" dance rhythms. In 2008, Victor, along with other famous artists (Mikhail Shufutinsky, Mikhail Gulko, Belomorkanal, Ruslan Kazantsev) recorded a solo album by the soloist of the Vorovayki group Yana Pavlova.

Also in the creative baggage of Victor Korolev is a duet with the unsurpassed Olga Stelmakh. Their beautiful song "Wedding Ring" is an example of quality music about love. Stelmakh is a great singer who works with such famous authors and composers of Russia as Vyacheslav Dobrynin, Mikhail Tanich, Mikhail Krug, Sergey Chelobanov, Sergey Trofimov, Larisa Rubalskaya, Andrei Derzhavin, Lidia Kozlova, Igor Azarov, Regina Lisits.

Viktor Korolev sings songs both to his own music and to other authors. Sometimes he writes texts in collaboration with such masters as Rimma Kazakova, German Yenin, and occasionally turns to lyric poems by not eminent authors. But he never shares his songs with other performers.

One of the main features of Victor Korolev, which is not at all inherent in representatives of show business, is his complete unwillingness to communicate with the press. For all its apparent openness, there is practically no information about his personal life. This makes the average person “think out” the facts.

It is only known that Victor is divorced and has three grandchildren. When asked about children, he jokes that his children are songs of his own composition. Although he still does not hide one detail of his personal life: it is a love for a riotous life and pretty women. Therefore, if we take into account the lack of "sober memory", children, perhaps, somewhere in the big touring spaces are still there.

Heavy touring schedule, far from "puritanical" way of life are reflected in the artist's not rejuvenating appearance. Therefore, Victor does not disdain the services of beauty salons and plastic surgeons.

Viktor Korolev turned 55 in 2017. Despite his age, he seemed to remain in the scenery and manner of communication in the bygone 90s, when the artists worked with the daring and enthusiasm inherent in the time when the Russian stage began to take the "image of show business." He, as at the start of his career, is full of energy and hope:

Victor Korolev has not changed his image (a cap turned back with a visor and the image of a dashing young man of average height) for more than 20 years:

In 2018, the artist holds new concerts - he will delight the viewer with his work for a long time.

"Hello, guests" (2005), "Lemons" (2006), "Black raven" (2006), "The reed rustled" (2007), "Hot kiss" (2008), "Bouquet of white roses" (2009), “For your beautiful smile” (2010), “The bird cherry blossomed” (2010), “Roman” (2011), “I will throw my life at your feet ...” (2012).
