This article describes a great composer, romance singer, drama and movie actor Alexander
Vertinsky. The subject of the analysis is characteristics of the bard’s creative activity, as well

of his 20 year long separation from the country that left the trail in composer’s creative
activity and life. His fame outside the country, numerous concerts, international public and
his acquaintance were never able to reduce the artist’s wrench after leaving the homeland
