Elena Kamburova

In addition to numerous solo albums, her voice is recorded in more than a hundred film soundtracks.

In 1967, she graduated from the State College of Circus and Variety Art (Государственное училище циркового и эстрадного искусства), and in 1979 from GITIS.

Okudzhava once noted that her art is "a lucky combination of voice, intellect, and talent."[1].

From mid-1970s, compositions of Vladimir Dashkevich made up a significant part of her repertoire, based on the lyrics by Vladimir Mayakovsky, Alexander Blok and (unfavorable with the Soviet authorities) Marina Tsvetayeva, Anna Akhmatova and Osip Mandelstam.

In 1992, Kamburova founded The Moscow Theater of Music and Poetry, where she acts as the director, a performer and an actress.
