Alexander Alexandrovich Postolenko was born on August 24, 1979 in the city of Biysk, Altai Krai. I started singing from an early age. “I started singing before I could speak,” says ABBA’s “Thank You for the Music.” It is this phrase that most accurately reflects Alexander’s craving for vocal performance. Beginning at the age of two, he spent hours singing the songs of pop artists he loved, popular at the time. His parents helped develop his son’s musical talents.
When Sasha was seven years old, he was sent to music school in a violin class. In the second grade, the nature of little Sasha, reaching for knowledge, led him to the Bayan class. Learning to play various instruments, he cherished the hope of becoming a professional singer. From the age of eleven, independently mastering the guitar, he began to compose his own works. Most of Alexander Postolenko’s songs are imbued with love for Russia and his native Altai region.
By the end of the music school, Alexander knew and had no doubts about his future path. After graduating from school, he entered the music school in the department of choral conducting. At that time, he also actively performed in the vocal and instrumental ensemble, participated in the competition of young pop performers, where he took first place, performing songs of his own composition, took part in the performances of the Novosibirsk team of KVN at the international festival in Sochi for five years, and also worked as a choir artist at the Novosibirsk Opera and Ballet Theater.
After graduating from school, Alexander Postolenko, dissatisfied with the frozen forms of classical education and with a desire to discover other horizons of his future career, moved to St. Petersburg and entered the University of Culture and Arts at the pop department, embarking on a direct path that eventually led him to the stage of the Moscow Operatta Theater.
