The citizens, however, disobeyed.
Today, the incredible legacy of Soviet cinema is often remembered. However, it is worth remembering the music industry, which gave listeners thousands of popular songs. And Oscar Feltsman made a huge contribution to this.
The talented composer wrote songs that stood the test of time perfectly. Yuri Gagarin liked his work, and the work “The Fire of Prometheus” was in a time capsule for 50 years. The composition “Lilies of the valley” has an equally interesting story. In Soviet times, almost every citizen knew it by heart.
However, the song was banned from airing for almost 25 years.
All this happened due to the fact that foreign listeners learned about it. In the West, “Lilies of the valley” fell in love as much as in the territory of the Union republics. Zen channel “Touches” writes that it was then that the composition was recognized as “philistine” and began to be criticized in the central Soviet media. Although the citizens continued to perform the musical work of Oscar Feltsman.
