Boka piano sheet music of popular songs

Boris Arkadevich Davidyan (April 28, 1949 – July 20, 2020), better known as Boka, was an Armenian singer and songwriter, a well-known performer of "prison-style songs". He was born in Soviet Azerbaijan to an Armenian family. In 1972, he recorded his first music album in Yerevan. During the Soviet years, he became a very popular soloist with Armenian rabiz, Caucasian, and Russian chanson lovers. In his albums, most of the songs are his own creation, although he also sang compositions by Vladimir Vysotsky and Arkady Severny. He performed his songs with a special oriental flavor. Some sources call him a "classic of chanson". In 1988, he visited United States and recorded there his new and popular album, "The Thieves' Share" (Russian: Доля воровская). The main composition of this album became a hit and was subsequently performed by many of his fellow soloists.
