About Pesynari

In the lackluster Soviet music scene of the 1970s and '80s, Pesniary (the Storytellers) ostensibly played wholesome folk songs in the Slavic tradition, but also fed audiences incendiary doses of funk, psychedelia, and progressive rock. Hailing from the Soviet republic of Belarus, the group dominated the state-controlled charts between 1974 and 1980 with hits like "Moy Adres Sovetskiy Soyuz" (My Address Is the Soviet Union), "Belorussia" (Belarus), and "Olesia." They can be compared to Western folk-rock groups of the era, but their presentation was tame -- even quaint -- in comparison to rough-and-tumble analogues like Creedence Clearwater Revival and the Byrds. But their squeaky-clean image met the demands of Soviet ideology, allowing them to experiment with elements of Western music and gain fame, if not fortune, in the U.S.S.R. In 1976 they even became the first Soviet rock group to tour the United States. Pesniary's principal innovation was the adaptation of rock instruments to the folk medium, incorporating thickly layered vocal harmonies and a diverse array of instruments that included at different times bayan, violin, flute, saxophone, folk whistles, and lyre. The group was large and amorphous on-stage, musicians sometimes numbering in the teens and twenties. Its longtime leader was Vladimir Muliavin, who died in 2003 from injuries received in a 2002 car accident. In the wake of the tragedy, and even before, four different parties came forward to lay claim to the celebrated name of Pesniary.
The group had its official start on September 1, 1969, when the state recording monopoly, Melodiya, released Pesniary's first LP, Ty Mne Vyasnoyu Prysnilasya (I Dreamt of You in Spring). In the years that led up to the release, a similar lineup -- also led by Muliavin -- had played under the moniker Liavony (the Jesters). From the moment Pesniary's first record dropped it began to sell in astonishing numbers, as did the studio albums that followed: 1974's Alesya, 1977's Perepyolachka (The Quail), and 1979's Vologda. Though the band was selling millions of albums, performing to packed audiences, and appearing frequently on TV and in radio hit parades, its members saw little monetary evidence of their success, since Melodiya paid its artists only through a symbolic system of honors. The songs played during the group's early years were Belarusian folk standards arranged by Muliavin as well as his own original compositions and those of other Soviet composers. Pesniary always took an active role in arrangement of the songs they played even if they were common folk standards, something that set them apart from their less enterprising contemporaries.
In the mid-'70s, Pesniary were among only a few ensembles allowed to travel to the United States, touring the South alongside American folk-rockers the New Christy Minstrels. As a result of their widespread commercial success, bandleader Muliavin became a bit bolder in his creative probings, composing two conceptual pieces: 1977's Pesn o Dole (Song of Fate) set to the poetry of Yanka Kupala, which was never recorded in a studio; and 1979's prog-folk Gusliyar, re-released in 2000 on the New Boheme label. These two experimental albums, though not widely heard, are regarded as the peak of the band's artistic ascent. In this golden era of Pesniary, when the band was achieving both far-reaching popularity and artistic innovation, there were often as many as 15 musicians on-stage at any given time, almost all contributing to vocals. The essential lineup was Muliavin (vocals, guitar), Leonid Bortkevich (vocals, lyre), Anatoliy Kasheparov (vocals, bayan), Vladislav Misevich (saxophone, flute, whistles, vocals), Valeriy Dayneko (violin, vocals), Leonid Tyshko (bass, background vocals), Aleksander Demeshko (drums, vocals), Vladimir Nikolaev (keyboards, background vocals, trombone, sax), Cheslav Poplavskiy (violin, vocals), Anatoliy Gilevich (piano, keyboards, background vocals), and Vladimir Tkachenko (guitar, violin, background vocals).
