For the past 30 years, Aida Vedishcheva, whose biography will be told later, has lived and sang in California, and all these years she has been loved by us and remembered for her talent, magnificent voice and exceptional repertoire.
Childhood and youth
Ida Solomonovna Weiss was born in 1941 in Kazan, where her family spent the whole war. Professor Weiss moved to Irkutsk from this city with his wife and daughter. The daughter of the doctors did not go to medicine, she always wanted to sing and play. After school, she, at the request of her parents, graduates from the pedagogical institute. Now she is an English teacher. But after that, Aida leaves for Moscow - she has her own plans. Ida Solomonovna Weiss was not accepted into the theater school. Schepkina. Despite her bright personality, her surname, name and patronymic prevented her. But a few days later they listen to her in a musical group. From the girl’s magical voice, everyone is delighted, and she becomes a singer. Aida Vedishcheva, this biography tells, has not yet appeared, she has not yet another name and a different surname.
Carier start
The beginning of her work can only be envied. First, Aida works in the orchestra of O. Lundstrem, then with L. Utesov. She is taken to the musical collective of Igor Granov, where she has a good repertoire. To avoid problems with nationality, her name is now Aida, middle name is Semenovna. Aida marries the circus artist Vedischev.
So with the surname, everything was settled. But she will soon part with her husband, but she will have a son Volodya. Everything is mixed up with such a person as Aida Vedishcheva: biography, family, children, work. In 1966, she will start giving concerts with the Melaton ensemble and will remarry the pianist and director Boris Dvernik. She had an amazing temperament and voice, it was this eccentricity that greatly complicated her life.
A song about Bears
In 1966, the movie "Prisoner of the Caucasus" was first shown at the Cinema House. Vedischeva handed out tickets to friends and parents. Everyone was very proud of Aida and looked forward to the credits, but the name Vedischeva was not in them. She was terribly ashamed. She watched the entire comedy of Gaidai through tears. This, of course, was wrong. They put all the names in the credits, except Vedischeva, and the song became popular. The same story will be repeated two years later.
But at the first show of The Diamond Arm by Aid Vedishchev, the biography does not hold back about this, no longer invites anyone and doesn’t come by itself - she knows in advance that her last name is again missed. Two years later, the name Vedischeva will again be absent from Poor Nastya. And in the movie “to sing” will be an actress, allegedly performing “Forest deer”. She had to give her voice to other artists before. It seems especially offensive and strange that it was the songs for the films that made Vedischev a real star. Composers turned to her a lot, everyone wanted their song to be sung by Aida Vedishcheva, whose biography is associated with the best pop composers. The circulation of records with Vedischeva’s records was unusually high.
Sopot and Furtseva
It is believed that Furtseva did not like Vedischeva and her frivolous songs. Vedischev was invited to become a guest in Sopot in 1968. The Ministry of Culture allowed her to sing one song about geese. But the audience didn’t leave Vedishchev with vacations, and she sang an encore of an unapproved song. There was a scandal in the homeland. And for ten years Aida fought for the right to sing. Under various pretexts, her concerts were canceled throughout the country. Tired of endless nit-picking, in 1980 Aida Vedischeva emigrated to the United States. Paradoxically, the fact, the appearance of the owner of one of the most popular voices in our country was practically unknown. After departure, all the records, maybe, with the exception of one or two, were demagnetized.
In America
She left for the States with her son, mother, husband Boris, several suitcases and five decorative dogs. There, singer Aida Vedishcheva, whose biography begins anew, graduated from college. She creates a program from popular American singles. For several years she and her son and mother travel around the country and give concerts.
But for the Americans, she remains a stranger. In America, she takes the pseudonym "Amazing", but they recognize her only among immigrants. She later divorced her husband Boris.
Third marriage
It all started beautifully, as in a fairy tale. Such an amazing biography of Aida Vedischeva, whose personal life is complicated, as she is. The newly arrived beauty singer is 45 years old. And Jay Markuff is already over 60. He saw her on stage and fell in love at first sight. He sought her out, but Aida, as an independent woman, was preoccupied with earning her bread.
Jay was persistent, and the singer became his wife. The first two or three years after hard work was a break. It became even interesting. 30 concerts a month for seventeen consecutive years - she is just very tired. But a millionaire fell in love not with a singer, but with a woman. He did not want her to perform on stage. Jay also did not take into account that Aida had her own opinion on everything. Therefore, divorce was inevitable. He was heavy, because Aida left herself, and not vice versa. Three years the divorce lasted.
Troubles came
First, after a serious illness, her husband Boris dies. Aida worried - not a stranger, after all. Then mom dies. And finally, when she was a little over fifty, she finds out about her terrible diagnosis. She was denied surgery. But she insisted. And her friend, Naim Bedim, who would later become a husband, did not abandon her at this terrible time, was always there. After the operation, he did not invite her to a restaurant, but to dance, and then she, forgetting about a serious illness, gave herself up to joy and dancing. After defeating the cancer of Aida Vedishchev, the biography, whose family deserves attention, found a new husband - a faithful friend and admirer.
