His greatest story
The singer with whom a whole country was in love had one single great love — Tamara Sinyavskaya, a soloist of the Bolshoi Theatre. Their union became a legend no less than his songs.
Their story is about love not hindering talent but feeding it. Two great artists, two strong personalities who managed to stay together for decades.
Love
They met in the early 1970s and married in 1974. Tamara Sinyavskaya is an outstanding singer of the Bolshoi Theatre, and their union joined the operatic and popular summits of Soviet music.
For this love both were ready to compromise in their careers. Beside her, Magomayev found the calm and the anchor that even nationwide fame could not give.
Love
Together they lived more than thirty years — until the singer's last day. It was not a stage act or a legend for the public, but a real life lived side by side.
Tamara Sinyavskaya carefully keeps the memory of her husband, and their story remains one of the most touching in the history of Soviet culture.
