TATYANA DASKOVSKAYA: VOICE OVER

Tatyana Daskovskaya, a singer whose voice was heard in more than two hundred Soviet films, died at the age of eightie. Few people know her name. Everyone knows her voice.

“Beautiful Distance” from “Guest from the Future” is her. “Promise Me Love” from “Aquanauts” is also her. Duet with Alexander Gradsky in “Song Above the Clouds” — again she.

MosGupRitual expresses condolences to the family and loved ones of Tatyana Daskovskaya.

Biographical facts

Her whole family are musicians. Husband, daughter — everyone is connected with music. A dynasty where talent was passed on from generation to generation.

The Invisible Star

Tatyana Daskovskaya was a voice-over singer. This means that her voice sounded in films, but no one saw her face. The actors on the screen opened their mouths, and she sang.

That was the custom. The audience was supposed to think that the actors were singing themselves. The names of voice-over singers almost never appeared in the credits.

Main works:

• “Beautiful Distance” — “Guest from the Future” (1985)
• “Promise me love” — “Aquanauts” (1979)
• Duet with Gradsky — “Song above the clouds” (1976)
• “Dot, dot, comma…” (1972)
• “The Wolf and the Seven Little Goats on a new way»
• «New Year's Adventures of Masha and Viti» (1975)

More than two hundred films. Twenty-four years of work. Five mentions in the credits.

MosGupRitual knows: people often work behind the scenes, whose contribution cannot be overestimated. Tatyana Daskovskaya was one of them.

“Beautiful Far Away”

1985. Film «Guest from the Future». The song that the girl was supposed to sing.

Dozens of young performers listened. Nobody came. And then composer Evgeny Krylatov remembered Daskovskaya.

She sang so that her voice seemed childish. But at the same time, deep, wise, full of hope.

“Hitting the bull’s eye” — that’s what Krylatov called this choice.

The song has survived eras. It is still sung to this day. Anthem of a generation.

After glory

In the nineties, Daskovskaya was fired due to reduction. Voice-over singers were no longer needed.

The family of musicians traded at the market. She survived as best she could.

In 1999 they left for Germany. Nuremberg. New life.

There Tatyana created the group “Gezang” (“Song”). She sang again. I was happy again.

What remains

More than two hundred films. A voice that millions know. A name that only a few know.

But now we know. Tatyana Daskovskaya is the woman who sang “The Beautiful is Far Away.” The voice of our childhood.

MosGupRitual bows its head to the memory of Tatyana Ivanovna Daskovskaya.

“The beautiful is far away, don’t be cruel to me…”

This song will always sound. And a piece of Tatyana Daskovskaya will live in everyone who hears her.

Blessed memory.
