Unfortunately I have only 2 films made after his death. And the last concert at 73 y.o. He died 2 years later. (1930-2005).
There are many films made in the prime of his life in our
TV archives but they dont translate them on TV or radio. They prefer to translate rude, vulgar pop shows where one cant hear voices & beauty melodies.
at the USSR period we could often see Shtokolov on TV & listened to him on the radio.
I was very happy to present at his concerts alive at the concert hall in Moscow, in Leningrad.
Everybody was delighted & with the smile of happiness on every face! It seemed as if only one person applowded. He was also a good actor.
I will remember that parties for all my life, so as my parents.
Its amazing that even for those who dont know Russian they understand Shtokolov without words! Many thanks to their sensitive souls.
Im very sorry, but my English lexicon is poor to write about Shtokolov.
The solist of Leningrad theatre here sais:
"Public adored him with his romances with his russian songs. When he sings russian folk songs I wish to cry", - she sais.
