Romances are rightfully called love songs, because. it is love that is the reason for the creation of many of them. Music and texts remain, but the names of the creators are often forgotten and the romance becomes "folk". The famous and very melodic romance "I remember the lovely sound of the waltz" has just such a fate, for a long time the name of its author was unknown a wide range listeners and performers. But still it exists, and it was the only musical and poetic work of Nikolai Afanasyevich Listov, and the reason for this was a happy love story.
Nikolai Listov was from Pskov, from a wealthy noble family, and received a good education. Various sources have different information about youthful years: it is only known that he was a student of the law faculty of either St. Petersburg or Riga University. During his studies, he was passionately fond of the theater and took part in amateur performances. In 1898, Listov was expelled from the university for participating in student unrest, and he returned home to Pskov, where he successfully plays in the local theater, often playing roles in which he has to sing along the way.

He meets her and falls passionately in love. The actress reciprocates, the lovers decide to get married. But Listov's parents opposed: their son, a nobleman, a handsome man and a provincial actress - a terrible shame for their family! It was necessary to make a choice between love and money.

I remember the waltz sound lovely
Late spring night
It was sung by an unknown voice,
And the song was wonderful.
Yes, it was a charming, languid waltz,
Yes, that was a marvelous waltz!
Now it's winter, and the same spruce
They are covered in darkness,
And under the window blizzards are noisy,
And the sounds of the waltz do not sound ...
Where is this old, languid waltz,
Where is this marvelous waltz!
