Izabella Yurieva (Russian: Изабелла Юрьева) is the stage name of Izabella Danilovna Livikova (Russian: Изабелла Даниловна Ливикова;[1] 7 September 1899[2] – 20 January 2000), a Russian singer nicknamed the "Queen of the Russian Romance"[3] who celebrated her centennial at a tribute concert given in her honor at the Central Concert Hall in Moscow in 1999.[4]
She was one of the top performers of the romantic Russian Gypsy songs in the late 1920s and 1930s before the genre became almost taboo in Soviet Russia.[5]
Yurieva was largely forgotten until the 1990s when she resurfaced on television and was named a People's Artist of the Russian Federation.[3]
