Author and performer of music
Vysotsky is a brilliant singer. He can’t be fit under the traditional canons. A special heart-breaking manner of performance of his own works does not leave the listener indifferent. Simple lyrics are so skillfully composed, that hurt the strings of the soul of even the most pragmatic people.
The repertoire of Vladimir Vysotsky includes many works. And each of them is written so deep. But it is very clear to the average person. Songs of the bard give confidence, push to perform noble deeds, make us think seriously about life, urge not to go on about the crowd, and be guided by your own mind. It is worth listening to the song “Chuzhaya koleya”, and once it becomes clear that it is necessary to choose your own path in life, and do not move the trodden way.
The singing work of Vysotsky is divided into cycles. And each of them tells about something special. War songs, lyric, composition, dedicated to various professions… It is difficult to list all that has been created by the poet. In his work, you can find a song for every occasion.
