Alexander Rosenbaum is a renowned Russian singer-songwriter, known for his distinct style that often incorporates elements of the bard, a term used to describe poets-singers-songwriters who write and perform their own songs accompanied by a guitar. Born on September 13, 1951, in Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg), Russia, Rosenbaum trained as a doctor before pursuing his passion for music. His works frequently draw from Russian folk traditions and often reflect on themes such as patriotism, war, and everyday life, which resonate deeply with his audience.

Initially gaining prominence in the Soviet era, Rosenbaum has continuously evolved his craft, contributing immensely to the genre of author song (Avtorskaia Pesnia). Many of his songs are narratives with a deep emotional core, reflective of Russian social and historical contexts. Among his array of work, the songs "Вдребезги" (In smithereens), "Симбиоз 2" (Symbiosis 2), and "Здравствуй, мой Магадан!" (Hello, my Magadan!) are just a few examples that highlight his storytelling prowess. Rosenbaum's legacy is also marked by his collections, such as "The Best," which compiles some of his most cherished works, solidifying his status as a pillar of Russian music and culture.
