Mini bio
How it started.
Born in Ust-Usa, Valery sang in a school choir and enjoyed drama, drawing, and dancing. Amateur performances in Vorkuta led to his first solo concert in 1972 and work with the ensembles Mechtateli and Echo.
Finding his audience.
Wins in Yalta in 1979 and Bulgaria’s Golden Orpheus festival in 1980 helped establish his career. He built theatrical concert programmes alongside collaborations with composers including Raimonds Pauls, Yuri Chernavsky, and Igor Krutoy.
Songs with a life of their own.
“Deltaplan” and “Margarita” remain familiar entry points into his music. His official channel also preserves full concerts and videos, including the Hollywood-shot “Po doroge v Gollivud” and 2021’s “Na krylyakh lyubvi.”
These days.
He has stepped away from regular concerts, while making occasional appearances such as New Wave in Kazan in 2025 and 2026. His director said in August 2026 that a return to concert activity was not planned.
