Victor Morozov

He began his musical career in the early seventies in Lviv, where he created two of the first Ukrainian rock groups – "Quo Vadis" in 1971 and "Arnika" in 1972.

Their numerous musical-theatre productions often sharply criticized and mocked the Soviet regime and were instrumental in raising national awareness in Ukraine prior to its independence.

Victor has entertained audiences in Afghanistan, Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, England, Germany, India, Laos, Latvia, Lithuania, Mongolia, Paraguay, Poland, Russia, the United States and many other countries.

In the early nineties, Victor formed "Chetvertyj Kut" ("The Fourth Corner") with Oleh Yarema, a young virtuoso guitarist and composer, and Roman Lozynsky, a violinist and sound engineer.

Victor's translations of world famous Paulo Coelho's novels "The Alchemist)" (May 2000), "Veronika Decides to Die" (December 2001) and "The Devil and Miss Prym" (September 2002) were published by "Klasyka" of Lviv.

Viktor Morozov was selected as a "Galician Knight" for 2003 in the "Writer of the Year" category for his translation of the Harry Potter series into Ukrainian.
