History
Ariel formed in Chelyabinsk, Russia, with 7 November 1970 taken as the band's founding date, when two local vocal-instrumental ensembles merged under leader Valery Yarushin. Its sound became the Soviet variant of folk-rock, reworking Russian folk songs and often performing a cappella ("Shumel Kamysh") or with acoustic guitar; the band earned the "folk-rock" label after a tour of Germany. In December 1971 Ariel tied for first place with Alexander Gradsky's Skomorokhi at the "Silver Strings" competition in Gorky, and a 1973 article by Nikita Bogoslovsky in Literaturnaya Gazeta helped the group gain professional status through the Chelyabinsk Philharmonic. From 1974 to 1979 Ariel reportedly held second place in Soviet hit parades behind Pesnyary, and Melodiya released five LPs, including the well-charting Russkiye Kartinki. Known songs include "Porushka-Paranya," "Baba Yaga," and "Tishina" (1971, later covered by Bravo in 2015). The band also staged concept rock operas such as "Za Zemlyu Russkuyu" and "Skazanie o Yemelyane Pugacheve," and performed at the 1980 Tbilisi rock festival. After 1989 the group split into separate Chelyabinsk and Moscow lineups.
