The name of Alexander Vertinsky is legendary. His songs never did acquire the infection of revolutionary rhetoric - he remained a liberated child of his great culture. The fact that he survived Stalin's purges imparted a mythical reputation to his later years in the USSR. Perhaps the explanation was that even a despot's heart has a secret compartment to which the poet holds the key. Vertinsky's poetry, music and singing from the summit of Imperial Russia's period of artistic decline; he is the final ray, gleaning in the twilight of Russian Silver Age.
