Timeline
или в 1918/1919 году After the war, since 1946 he lived in Moscow, where he wrote orchestral arrangements and played the violin in small orchestras.
Yan Abramovich Frenkel (Ян Абрамович Френкель) (November 21, 1920, Kiev – August 25, 1989, Riga, USSR) was a popular Soviet Ukrainian composer and performer of Jewish descent.
Yan Frenkel was a Russian Soviet composer born in Kiev, Soviet Union.
He was originally taught violin by his father, and later studied classical violin at the Kiev Conservatory under Yakob Magaziner, and the piano.
During the Second World War he was evacuated to Orenburg, where he entered at the Orenburg Antiaircraft Military School (Zenitnoe Uchilishche), and played the violin in the orchestra of the Avrora Cinema.
In 1942 he served at the front lines and was wounded.
After the hospital, since 1943 played in the military orchestra.
He began composing songs in the 1960s.
His first was the song Gody ('The Years'), written to lyrics by Mark Lisianski.
Frenkel gave concerts in which he performed his own music.
During these concerts the audience would generally join in.
His songs were included in the repertoire of many Soviet performers.
He also appeared in the movie The Elusive Avengers, for which he composed a score.
Yan Frenkel died on August 25, 1989, in Riga (as foreshadowed in his song Avgust ('August') to the lyrics of Inna Goff).
His wife Natalia died in the mid-1990s, but his daughter Nina has lived in Italy since the 1980s.
His grandson Ian Frenkel is a musician (pianist and arranger) in the United States Coast Guard Band.
As reported by composer's fan site, members of Soviet ruling bureaucracy orchestrated a campaign against 'The Cranes', citing the song's religious undertones.
The case was elevated all the way to the Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev, who decreed "acceptable to perform, but not too often".
Frenkel was the prototype for Gena the Crocodile, a fictional, friendly crocodile in the series of popular animation films Gena the Crocodile, Cheburashka and Shapoklyak.
