When Yury Chernavsky began work as a music producer in late ’70s USSR, there was little around him to draw inspiration from and so he looked to the advances and innovations happening in the West. His career began in the late ’60s as a jazz musician, playing the violin and saxophone as a member of various orchestras, including ensembles led by Russian jazz stars Oleg Lundstrem and Leonid Utyosov as well as Muslim Magomayev’s State Jazz Orchestra of Azerbaijan. Inspired by Coltrane, Count Basie and Quincy Jones, Chernavsky worked the concert circuit for over a decade before moving into musical direction, composition and production. In the ’80s he emerged as one of Russia’s first modern-day music producers, working with rock and pop groups as well as experimenting with early synthesizer and studio technologies. In 1983 he recorded Banana Islands with Vesyolye Rebyata [Jolly Fellows], one of the first Russian rock albums to gain international attention, and three years later he founded SPM Record, Russia’s first independent music and entertainment company and host of the first discos in Russia, and acted as musical director for the Goodwill Games.

Очень интересно слушать, но это не про музыку. К сожалению не дослушал пока до конца, но похоже по ходу интервью не звучит ни одной композиции. Это по меньшей мере странно

[@checktheneck]

Ничего странного, композиции вырезаны на монтаже, чтобы ютуб не кинул клеймы за использование. Так сделано во всех лекциях, где ставят треки.

ну хоть список ссылок или хотя бы названий под видео разместить можно было, как это делается для других интервью

[@BigLesbowski]

почему такое ничтожно малое количество коментов и просмотров!
