Optimalniy Variant ((ロシア語:Оптимальный Вариант), ''Optimal Variant'') is a Russian rock group. It was formed in Moscow, Soviet Union, by Oleg Chilap (also known as ''O! Chilap'', vocals and acoustic guitar), Alexander Lipnitsky (bass) and Pyotr Anikin (drums), with a purpose to "oppose the existed rock-movements in Moscow". The group was influenced by the music of The Beatles, poems of Alexander Blok and marxist theory. "Optimalniy Variant" became famous after the performance of "Russians in Afghanistan" song in 1980. The poetry of O! Chilap is full of original metaphors and kalamburs. His lyrics reflect a philosophical view of life, with man's inner freedom constituting the central idea.〔(Optimalniy Variant in Zvuki.ru )〕 The group plays a synthesis of ballads and Russian melodies blended together on a blues basis. ''Optimalniy Variant'' was awarded by prizes at rock-festivals, included "Beatlomania" of 1989. They are organizing the "Apple Years Street" Yearly Festival.〔(The Between )〕 Optimalniy Variant was considered by Rossiyskaya Gazeta as the main successor of "post-Beatles period moods and harmonies" on Russian rock scene.〔(Музыка рыбы об лед, Rossiyskaya Gazeta, 2009 )〕 ==Selected discography== *PoshliNa, 1988 *Rizhiy albom, 1998 *Legends of Russian Rock, 2003 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Optimalniy Variant」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
