Family, origin, education of Peter Nalich

Pyotr Andreevich Nalich was born in Moscow, from where he practically never left until recently.
Nalich's parents are architects. In addition to secondary school, Peter studied at the Myaskovsky children's music school, graduating brilliantly. When the boy’s voice began to break and become louder, Peter organized a school rock band. The guys played hard rock, Nalich himself became the vocalist. After graduating from school, Peter, of course, entered the Moscow Architectural Institute - it was difficult to expect any other choice from him. However, the student of the architectural university did not abandon his passion for music, studying in parallel with the Moscow Architectural Institute at the Orpheus music studio (headed by Irina Mukhina) and the music school named after. Merzlyakov at the Moscow State Conservatory (academic vocal class). And in the MArhI itself there were musical circles - the main architectural university of Russia has long been famous for its musical traditions (as you know, the brilliant Andrei Makarevich graduated from the MArchI). Serious vocal studies began only at a music school - before that Nalich learned to play the guitar and other musical instruments. I thought that I could sing anyway. However, when I began to seriously train my voice, I realized that I still had a lot to learn.

Pyotr Nalich and the ICPN in Anti-Soviet In his senior years at the architectural institute, Pyotr got into a theater club, where he became interested in staging musical performances based on utopian plays.

After brilliantly graduating from Moscow Architectural Institute, Nalich began working in his profession, achieving significant success in the architectural field. However, the craving for singing still took its toll, and now Peter practically does not engage in architecture. The musician is proud of his origins and believes that he inherited his musical abilities from his great-grandfather. Nalich's ancestors are Bosnians, and Peter himself identifies as half Bosnian. The musician's surname is also of Balkan origin.

The musician’s great-grandfather sang at the Belgrade Opera, was a lyric tenor and had an engagement there before the war. Peter dreams of going to his historical homeland, Bosnia, but for now he is limited to only dreams - his passport has expired, and in order to renew it, he needs to leave his cozy home, and this is so difficult. Therefore, Bosnia is still out of reach for Nalich.

After graduating from the Merzlyakovsky Music School, Nalich tried to enter the Moscow State Conservatory, but was unsuccessful.

"Guitar"

Until 2006, the young musician was creative “for his own pleasure,” posting his own compositions on his website and filming amateur video clips on them. One of these video clips became a super-powerful bomb that blew up the Russian segment of the Internet, and then caused a stir on the World Wide Web. Peter posted a video for his song “Guitar” on the YouTube video service. This happened in the spring of 2007. Within the first month, the video received 70 thousand views. Bloggers shared a link to the clip with each other, and even representatives of the “live” media who were far from the Internet in those years knew about it. Several newspapers published interviews with the people's favorite. Overnight Nalich became a star; Meanwhile, the number of views of the video increased by several thousand every day.

The biography of Peter Nalich began in Moscow

The video was made up of several ingredients, each of which was explosive in itself, and when combined, the ingredients created a truly hellish mixture. It’s impossible not to fall in love with a funny guy who, on the one hand, clearly mockingly parodies the videos of current superstars that are included in the rotation of music television channels like MTV, and on the other hand, does it so sincerely and simply that he captivates audiences of any age and with any musical preferences. In addition, the song itself pleasantly attracts with its richness of musical images and melodic finds. Nalich performs his “Gitar, gitar, gitar, gitar, come to my buduar” in poor English, giving the song a resemblance both to a gypsy courtyard romance and to Latin American classics like Tonio Carotone or Juanes. After watching the video, one inevitably remains firmly convinced that this half-Jew, half-gypsy is a rising star of gypsy punk. But he is not a gypsy baron or a Jewish punk - the excited audience saw this with their own eyes when Petr Nalich announced his first concert.

Nalich's performance took place on November 9, 2007 at the Moscow club "Apshu". By that time, the performer had more than forty musical compositions, most of which were posted on Nalich’s website for free access. The archive with those old recordings still roams the Russian Internet thanks to the enthusiasm of fans of Peter’s work.

Tickets for the concert were sold out on the first day, the excitement was incredible, as if at least Iglesias had come to Apshu. The performance was successful, and the entire Russian-speaking segment of the World Wide Web was full of reviews about the event that same night. The next day, articles appeared in print publications, and at the end of 2007, the composition that marked the beginning of the boom was recognized as the best Runet song of the outgoing year.

Personal life
