The early years and the education of Edmund Shklyarsky Edmund Mechislavovich Shklyarsky was born on September 26 in Leningrad. By nationality, the musician is half a Pole, therefore, from an early age, he speaks freely in Russian and Polish.
He was always susceptible to music and early began to play instruments. Mother - Irina Sergeevna Shklyarskaya - taught the conservatory, led the general course of piano. Edmund Shklyarsky initially took up the keys, and then switched to the violin, but the academic career did not work out, since Western rock musicians took possession of the child’s mind. But he did not think seriously about the career of the musician and at the end of the school he chose a thorough profession - he went to study at the energy of the Leningrad Polytechnic Institute.
However, Edmund Shklyarsky did not leave music and even founded the Student Student Student, which declared himself at the Festival “Spring Rhythms”, honored with a special prize. In his youth, Edmund tried as a guitarist in the Leningrad group Aquarium, played on the keys in Orion and was in the Labyrinth ensemble. In the end, I quickly realized that I needed freedom of expression.
Dating in musical circles and membership in the Leningrad rock club helped him in self-realization. He found like-minded people and created a picnic rock band. The musicians debuted the musical career of Edmund Shklyarsky in the year, and a year later they recorded the first “smoke” disc, where Alexei prey, the co -author of Shklyarsky, performed. Subsequently, Edmund Mesclavovich will become the permanent leader.
Starting to perform in the Leningrad Rock Club, the group quickly entered its first rows, becoming a laureate of the first festival in the year along with Aquarium and Zoo. The ensemble gave the first concerts, and even then a performance appeared on the stage - a format that eventually become an obligatory attribute of all performances. Today it is impossible to imagine the show of the “picnic” without amazing instruments designed by the soloist, light effects and mummers, which go on stage on two -meter strokes.
By the beginning of X, the team recorded five albums, among which “hieroglyph”, “from nowhere” and “harakiri”. By this time, the group’s concerts took place with the Angels, and each subsequent plate became an event. In the stream of Russian rock, the “picnic” stood separately, without recalling anyone and without imitating anyone. The impassive frontman Edmund Shklyarsky sang by the buzzing tenor about strange worlds, without affecting the social and political problems that excited the majority in that vague era.
In the year, the album “Egyptian” was released, the songs from which came into the charts of “Our Radio” and became popular throughout the country. In M, the Kingdom of Crooked Crosy was recorded, the title song of which became the soundtrack for the series of the same name, and the composition “The Shaman has three hands” repeatedly fell into the “Chat Dyuzhin” “Our Radio”.
In the same period, Edmund Shklyarsky participated in the voice acting of the cartoon Tim Burton “The nightmare before Christmas”, sparing a batch of vampires. In years, the contractor continued to write songs, perform and record the discs of the “picnic”, including “Iron Mantras”, “obscurantism and jazz”, “stranger”. In M “Picnic” he noted the flying of a series of anniversary concerts around the country and released the Iskra and Cancan record, which included 10 tracks.
In the spring of the year, the group spoke at the apartment at Evgeny Margulis, dedicated to the summer anniversary of Bulat Okudzhava. Shklyarsky with the musicians performed a cover of the song "Grapes". In the same year, the studio album of the team “In the hands of a giant” was released. The Soviet tape “One of us” inspired the “film end” to write the film “The Film” of the musician, it was there that the phrase “We are on Packgauz ...
we were poisoned by a sausage.” The “cheerful and angry” album included the track “Everything will turn over”, which had previously been released as a single year. For the song, the artist Vasya Lozhkin was drawn an animated clip presented on the birthday of Shklyarsky - September 26. Edmund Shklyarsky, Edmund Shklyarsky, fell in love with the artistic talent of Shklyarsky as a child and did not leave this hobby over the years.
The ability to embody images not only in words, but also on paper led to the fact that almost all the covers of the “picnic” were illustrated by the author of texts and music. The characters of Shklyarsky’s paintings are often hidden behind masks, and in curved and deformed silhouettes an attempt to escape from reality or, conversely, get into an inaccessible dimension is read.
The painting of the artist is full of abstractions, symbolism and as if follows from his poetry and complements it. It is easy to imagine that the drawings are just captured by Zurgi and Lurgi, dolls with a human face, three -handed shamans and other characters in the lyrics. Personal exhibitions of Shklyarsky’s works periodically open. In the year, the musician’s paintings were exhibited in the Manege of St.
Petersburg, and in M the Nota-R publishing house released the album “Sounds and Symbols”, where picturesque work is accompanied by author's commentary.The personal life of Edmund Shklyarsky personal life of the musician has developed in his youth. In an interview, he said that he fell in love with Elena during the dance on New Year's Eve. They played a wedding in a restaurant on Nevsky Prospekt, where after 25 years they celebrated a silver wedding.
The wife - Elena Pavlovna Shklyarskaya - gave birth to him the son of Stanislav and daughter Alina, who, in turn, gave birth to a leader of the "picnic" of grandchildren. The Shklyar family lives in St. Petersburg. Stanislav became carried away by music and eventually played in the father of his father on the synthesizer, becoming the youngest participant in the “picnic”.
Alina also does not stand aloof from creativity and sometimes helps the parent in writing texts. The state of health of Shklyarsky after the accident was evaluated as satisfactory, although he received a traumatic brain injury and a fracture of the pelvic bone. Over time, the artists continued the tour. The tragedy at the Picnic concert in Crocus on March 22 of the year was a terrible tragedy.
On this day, thousands of spectators gathered at Crocus City Hall at the concert of the Picnic group. Shortly before the start in the building and the concert hall, unknown people opened shooting. After that, the fire began. The members of the group managed to evacuate, but the connection with one person was lost. Later it became known that it was about Ekaterina Kushner, an assistant to the director of the team, who was engaged in the sale of merchants at concerts.
She died. The musicians admitted that all their instruments were also burned in a fire in Crocus. Despite this, the group did not cancel the concert planned on March 27 in St. Petersburg and declared it charitable. All the funds earned from the event, Shklyarsky and his colleagues decided to send the victims and families of those who died in a terrorist attack.
