In the early 1970s, Siberian Irkutsk flew aroundwonderful news: from the forest straight into the city center galloped ... deer. It's cold, you see, it was the poor man, because he decided to "dress up" in one of the local stores. The unwelcome forest guest turned out to be an esthete: having chosen the Birch Tree, known throughout the country, among other trade establishments, he knocked out a window and jumped into the hall. Today it is not known for certain that it was he who picked up the deer with his horns - a fur coat or a hat, but the fact remains: with the fur "booty" he sped back into the forest.
Song "Forest Deer" is known todayseveral generations of Russians. She charms with light romance and extraordinary lightness. It’s impossible not to fall in love with the swift and muscular horned handsome man, and such universal recognition is the merit of two talented people - Yuri Entin and Evgeny Krylatov.
In fact, the forest deer, known to broad masses, was to be born ... a panther. Nonsense? By no means. Simply, this is the case when the heavens wanted to give joy to the world.
Working on the film "Oh, so this Nastya", YuriEntin puzzled over the verses: the task was to talk about the panther, with whom the girl was walking around the city. The right words did not go all the way to his head, and the poet decided to digress a little, he picked up a newspaper and began to study what the country lives.
Irkutsk lived on the news about deer. After reading an entertaining note, Yuri Entin instantly came up with the text. This was the famous "Forest Deer".
A beautiful song came into being, and together withher creators have problems. Entin fought with the director of the film: the seemingly uncomplicated lines did not suit him. And here the composer came to the aid of the poet. Everything was decided with a light hand and bright talent of Evgeny Krylatov. The music created by him for Forest Deer melted the stern director’s heart.
However, cuffs fell on Krylatov.The then head of the children's radio said how he snapped: “Gypsy is ugly!” And he warned, they say, only through his corpse will they hear “Forest Deer” on the radio. He did not have to wait for the official to die - the song sounded on the radio waves after his resignation.
Such is the fate of this song:and the film in which she sounded, and the singer who performed it first, have long remained only in the memory of the elect. The “forest deer” turned out to be eager for life. Moreover, the popularity of this creation does not fall over the years.
Чьим-то жестким и неумолимым решением талантливую Aida Vedischeva - the singer who gave the song success, pushed aside. On the "Song 73" the composition about the host of the deer country sang for some reason the children's choir, and this fact could not but hurt Vedischev.
It will be years, and the role of a girl asking for a deerto return by her desire, they will try on such stars of the Soviet and Russian variety as Lyudmila Senchina and Sofia Rotaru, Tatyana Bulanova and Julia Savicheva, Sveta Svetikova and Julia Mikhalchik. Even the youth bands will strike for the song “Forest Deer”.
А Евгений Крылатов и Юрий Энтин этому только рады.There was a time, explain, when it seemed that their work ceased to excite people. Everything that has been created for decades has collapsed. However, the “black line” has passed: new performers have appeared - with burning eyes, hot hearts and a mass of new ideas. “The Forest Deer” turned out to be needed, and when they are being called again and again by more and more new people, in order to demonstrate their vision of the song, it only brings joy, the authors say.
