From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Pavel Lisitsian (Павел ГераÑимович ЛиÑициан) (June 6, 1911-July 6, 2004) was an outstanding Soviet baritone opera singer who performed in the Bolshoi Opera, Moscow from 1940 until his retirement from stage in 1966.
He was born into an Armenian family living in the Russian city of Vladikavkaz, where his father was a mineworker. Pavel first worked in diamond drilling, then as a welder apprentice hoping to follow his father's steps. He first began to sing in a church choir before moving to Leningrad to study cello (1930). His daughters Karina and Ruzanna are successful opera singers who frequently perform together.
