Victor Morozov ((ウクライナ語:Віктор Морозов)) (born June 15, 1950) is one of Ukraine's most popular singer-songwriters. == Musical career == Victor Morozov was born on June 15, 1950 in Kremenets, a city in the western Ukrainian SSR). He began his musical career in the early seventies in Lviv, where he created two of the first Ukrainian rock groups - "Quo Vadis" in 1971 and "Arnika" in 1972. By 1976, Victor was hired as a soloist with the ensemble "Vatra" and in 1979 became a soloist with the popular group "Smerichka". This gave him the opportunity to work closely with other well-known musicians and composers, such as Ihor Bilozir, Oksana Bilozir, Vika, Nazariy Yaremchuk and Volodymyr Ivasyuk. With these ensembles Victor also had the chance to travel and represent Ukraine, and the former Soviet Union, at many international music festivals. In 1988, Victor became one of the founders and artistic director of "Ne Zhurys!" (''"Don't Worry!"''), a cabaret-style musical theater group that mixed political satire with song. Their numerous musical-theatre productions often sharply criticized and mocked the Soviet regime and were instrumental in raising national awareness in Ukraine prior to its independence. They were bold enough to perform songs banned by Soviet censors and in 1989 became the first group to publicly perform Mykhailo Verbytsky's "Shche ne vmerla Ukraina" ("''Ukraine's glory has not perished''"), the once and future national anthem of independent Ukraine, which was officially banned at the time. Victor's popularity has afforded him other artistic opportunities, both on television, as host of the popular music video request show "Vy nam pysaly" (''"You wrote us"''), and on stage, as an actor or master of ceremonies at various concerts and productions. Victor has entertained audiences in Afghanistan, Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, England, Germany, India, Laos, Latvia, Lithuania, Mongolia, Paraguay, Poland, Russia, the United States and many other countries. He has also had the honour of being selected to perform before Hillary Rodham Clinton, the First Lady of the United States of America, during her visit to Ukraine. 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「Viktor Morozov」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
