The Soviet mass song: the secret of «Aviamarch» |
Yaroslav V. Gloushakov
The article talks about the music piece that became the undisputed brand of the Soviet Union as well as one of the major mysteries of the 1920s: «Aviamarch» (composer – Yuliy Khayt, lyrics by Pavel German). In the rapidly evolving information space in the late Soviet period, surprising similarities were found between a well-known anthem of the Soviet Air Force «Aviamarch» and a German song of young workers of the times of the Third Reich – a march «Das Berliner Jungarbeiterlied» («Herbei zum Kampf»). Later, the story of «plagiarism» attracted public attention in the Internet space. Not only Russian but also foreign bloggers where involved in the online discussion. However they faced the diffi culty of inability to determine the exact period of creation of neither «Aviamarch» nor his Nazi counterpart. In the meanwhile, «Aviamarch» is still the anthem of the Russian Air Force…
The author analyses the historical circumstances of the creation of the above music pieces, reconstructs the poetic text of
Pavel German, draws from the modern scientifi c views regarding plagiarism, and presents priority authors of the March.
Keywords: mass culture, mass song, popular song, Yuliy Khayt, Pavel German, «Aviamarch», «Herbei zum Kampf», Leni Riefenstahl, «Triumph des Willens», Joseph Goebbels, plagiarism, propaganda.
