Vasily Pavlovich Solovyov-Sedoi (Василий Павлович Соловьёв-Седой; 25 April [O.S. 12 April] 1907 – 2 December 1979)[1] was a Soviet classical composer and songwriter who was born and died in Leningrad.
Solovyov-Sedoi composed the music for many songs such as "Moscow Nights" (Russian: Подмосковные вечера) and "Nightingales" (Russian: Соловьи).[2][3] He also wrote music for numerous films. The melody of the Moscow Nights by Solovyov-Sedoi resembles the famous On the Banks of the Wabash, Far Away by Paul Dresser https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpXve4jdD3E Originally named Solovyov, when he entered the Union of Soviet Composers he added the suffix "Sedoi", meaning grey-haired, to avoid confusion with another composer with the same surname.[2]
