Evenk Autonomous Okrug (or Evenkia) was a federal subject of Russia. On January 1, 2007, it was merged into Krasnoyarsk Krai.
Oleg Chapogir (1952–2010) was a composer from Kislokan in Evenkia. He has released eight albums in collaboration with Nikolai Oyogir and Alitet Nemtushkin. He published the "Songs of the Taiga Region" collection. He has written more than 200 songs. He was educated at Norilsk Musical College in Norilsk. [1]
Though not a native of Evenkia, Nikolai Bilanin has also had a profound effect on Evenk music. He founded the children's folk band Osikta and an influential brass band. Nikolaevich has also arranged local folklore and worked with Chapogir, Evgeniya Kureiskaya, a popular Evenk singer, and Anatoli Kustov, a composer.
