Death of Andrey Davidyan

The artist’s representative is surprised that the “Voice” star was not given gentle anesthesia

One of the most bright participants TV project "The Voice" 60-year-old Andrei Davidyan died in the Botkin hospital on Sunday morning. In recent days, the musician desperately fought for life, but all efforts were in vain. As the artist’s representative Yuri Denisov told MK, at the end of October Davidyan was already in a hospital bed with appendicitis, and the operation was performed under general anesthesia.

We will find out why, at such an advanced age, doctors did not use gentle anesthesia on him, for example. After the surgery, Andrei was bothered by pain, so the doctors gave him more cleaning. He managed to go to Riga for a few days. I returned from there full of creative plans. And suddenly on November 5 he had a stroke. Thank God it happened at home, with family. He was urgently hospitalized at the Botkin Hospital. At first we thought it was a stroke. But heart problems were discovered. Doctors diagnosed an ischemic stroke. He spent several days in intensive care. I came to my senses. We visited him, he even talked to us, but his speech was very “floating”, every word was difficult to come by. Unfortunately, his condition worsened and he fell into a coma. Last days was connected to a ventilator. We really hoped that he would be able to overcome the disease. But all the efforts of doctors were unsuccessful.

His companion Victoria Kolos wrote about the singer’s death on her social network page, and posted joint photo with him and wrote: “Sleep well, my boy...” Also by artist kind words remembered the winner of “The Voice” Sergei Volchkov: “Today my dear person, friend, great artist..."

Andrey was born into a musical family. His father, Sergei Davidyan, is an opera singer, Honored Artist of the USSR, performer of Arno Babajanyan's hits, his mother is a pianist. Andrey himself began singing at the age of three. It so happened that Davidyan studied at a school with in-depth study of literature and art along with other children of musicians, actors, writers and artists. There he became friends with Bulat Okudzhava’s son Igor. Together they created an amateur group in which they sang and played a homemade drum kit.

After school, Andrei tried to enter drama school. By the way, Efim Shifrin also wanted to take the same course with him, and both of them did not pass the competition. Then, before being drafted into the army, the singer was a member of the Leap Summer group, founded by Chris Kelmi and Alexander Sitkovetsky, and after serving, he immediately became part of another musical team - Voluntary Society, where he performed cover versions of hits Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin and Grand Funk Railroad. In 1977, he and other musicians created the group “Victoria,” which performed “Russian funk.” Later there were studies at the Institute of Asian and African Countries, a trip to Egypt and Algeria, and after returning home - work in the State Variety Orchestra of Russia, where Andrei got thanks to Maxim Dunaevsky.

Davidyan was a member of the groups “SV”, “Alter-Ego”, “Rock-Atelier”. The latter collaborated with Lenkom, and it was she who performed the music of the legendary opera “Juno” and “Avos”. In 1987, Andrei, along with many celebrities, took part in the filming of a video for famous song“Closing the Circle,” written by Chris Kelmi and Margarita Pushkina. Since 1993, the artist had his own project “Sound Cake”. In recent years, he has sung soul, funk and jazz-rock in clubs, performing both world hits and his own compositions.

Davidyan loudly reminded the mass audience of himself in 2013, when he became a participant in the second season of the popular television competition, and, despite the fact that he dropped out of the show after the quarterfinals, it was as if he had experienced a second creative youth. His creative baggage included various projects, genre experiments. In 2014, he even performed with military bands at international festival"Spasskaya Tower". Alas, now this voice is silent forever.

Musician Andrei Davidyan died at the age of 61

At the age of 60, the musician, participant in the recording of the song “Closing the Circle” and the second season of the show “The Voice,” Andrei Davidyan, died. After an ischemic stroke, he was hospitalized in intensive care, fell into a coma and died.

In 2013, Andrei Davidyan performed the song “Georgia on my mind” at the blind auditions for the second season of “The Voice” - and in such a way that he made all the mentors turn to him. He chose Pelageya (as, by the way, did Anton Belyaev from Therr Maitz, who participated in the show that year), reached the quarterfinals in her team and lost.

However, he, like Belyaev, came to the competition as an already established musician: Davidyan was 57 years old that year.

Davidyan grew up in Moscow, was friends with the son of Bulat Okudzhava, tried to enter the theater school, but did not pass the competition. Before the army, he played in the rock band “Leap Summer” together with Chris Kelmi, sang covers of famous Western hits; After the service, he created the Voluntary Society group with Pavel Smeyan and his brother Alexander, which also performs cover versions of Western rock songs. True, this team did not last long, and Kelmi took Davidyan to his “Rock Studio”.

Andrei nevertheless graduated from the institute, but became not an artist, but a translator, worked in Egypt and Algeria, upon returning to the USSR, he got a job in the State Variety Orchestra of Russia with Maxim Dunaevsky, and in 1987 took part in the recording famous composition“Closing the circle” by Chris Kelmi among other Russian pop stars.

But he himself never became a star; for some time he played in the group “SV” - before Alexey Romanov returned there, with other groups, and in 1993 he created his own project Sound Cake, with which he performs funk, jazz-rock and soul and with which he performs at “live” concerts. Therefore, on “The Voice” the masters - Alexander Gradsky and Leonid Agutin - recognized him, however, after they turned their chairs; listening with his back to Davidyan’s performance of “Georgia on my mind,” Gradsky persuaded his neighbors that there was a black performer on stage (of course, there are such people on the project). He was called the “discovery” of “The Voice” - but, of course, there was no need to discover such an artist: he was already famous, and the show only added to the number of fans of the middle-aged musician.
