Music and poems
The first poems of young Yuri Entin wrote in adolescence, being in the hospital after removing appendicitis - the muse was then a young nurse, and the topic is delighted how sometimes in dark moments in life can feel freely well.
However, dedicated to the study of history, Yuri Entin returned to poetry only at 33 years. At this age, he begins to seriously engage in the writings of poems and songs. In 1962, Yuri was settled to work as an editor of the children's edition of the company "Melodia".
It all started with a happy occasion, which radically changed the creative biography of the poet. Being at the set of the film "Zasva Ilyich", which took place at the Polytechnic Institute, Yuri Entin came to the concert of the Soviet poets Andrei Voznesensky, Evgenia Yevtushenko and Bella Akhmadulina. When Marlend Huziev, director of the picture, suggested reading the poems from the stage to anyone who wishes from the hall, called Yuri Entin. A young man with a slight smile on his face presented poetic parodies on poems that just heard from the mouth of the sixties.
The audience appreciated the talent of Yuri. Among the audience was a composer Gennady Gladkov. He offered a young cooperation with a young man. Just at this time, the composer together with the actor, director and screenwriter Vasily Livanov worked on a new project. Yuri Entin happily agreed and soon resigned from the edition for the sake of work on the "Bremen musicians." Since 1969, Yuri is considered a free artist and writes songs and poems to order.
The growth of the popularity of songs among the public was rapidly, children's songs were raised by adults for quotes. The phrases "no one drives with me," "Such - Syakaya escaped from the palace", "How progress has reached" and "three hundred years ago" still often pop up in conversations in adults who have grown on the songs of Entin. The poet himself loves the song Water "And I am a hunting", which he composed, taking a bath. Khudovtset did not want to miss the masterpiece for the words "Eh, my life, yes, so well in a swamp ...", but Yuri managed to convince censors in the opposite.
On the very first day after the release of the song about the "Antoshka", late in the evening, Yuri heard the middle-aged man under the windows on the street, and sowed all the throat "Antoshka, went to dig potatoes." As the poet admits, it became a faithful sign that his song instantly turned into a hat, and for the author there is no greater award than the recognition of the people in any forms and manifestations.
As for criticism, it was more difficult. Many ethnic works were considered harmful, publication and production were delayed, had to defend even harmless songs "Oh, early the guard arises!" and "Chung-Changa". A number of works managed to release contrary to criticism, the rest were postponed in a long box or reworked.
For many years, interesting facts pop up on the history of the creation of some Entin's masterpieces. For example, it turned out that the image of the princess from the "Bremen Musicians" was sought from the second wife of Yuri - Marina. Short red dress on heroine repeated wedding french female poet. The prototype of Atamanshi was the spouse of the director Vyacheslav Kotenochka.
During the preparation of this multiplication musical, there were interesting cases, which were subsequently led to friends as anecdotes. For example, on the night of the voice acting (and the record studio was free at night) of this cartoon from all the stated performers came to the studio only Oleg Anofriev. Despite the cold and high temperature, Oleg voiced first Trubadura, and then in a pure inspiration, the parties recorded all the characters, with the exception of the princess. Her party sang the fellow girl Gladkov Elmira Zherdv. When creating a continuation "in the footsteps of the Bremen Musicians", the heroes were invited to Muslim Magomayev.

Working on the text to the cartoon about the miracle island, Entin could not come up with a name. But once in the Titors to the television ether "Ballet on Ice", the poet saw the surname of the director. Balletmister called Evgeny Changa.
