The Song Remaines With You. lilies of the valley

For more than 60 years, with the word "lilies of the valley", we remember, of course, both white flowers and the smell of spring, but first of all, our favorite song that begins to sound in our heads. Oscar Feltsman wrote the music for the song "Lilies of the Valley" back in 1958. Feltsman composed it in his characteristic short and easy manner and went for vacation to the seaside. And there, in the south, a week later he received a telegram from a friend: “Oscar, rush home, all Moscow is singing your "Lilies of the Valley.” So this song brought a smashing success to the little-known then composer Oscar Feltsman.
