Dvorsky graduated from the Chernivtsi music school. In 1976 he was invited to the vocal-instrumental ensemble Smerichka replacing Vasily Zinkevich and becoming supporting vocal for Nazariy Yaremchuk, while staying in his shadow for sometime. In 1979 there appeared the first songs of Pavlo Dvorsky - Storozhary[1] and Poppy flowers for the son which was commemorated to Volodymyr Ivasyuk.

Smerykova khata became his visit card. The melody Dvorsky wrote on the Black Sea coast in Bulgaria while being homesick. After arriving back home he called Mykola Bakay and told him that he has a melody and the first words Smerekova khata, batkivsky porih... (A pine-tree house, the father's doorstep...). He knew that Bakay was the right person who would be able to find the needed words. The words were found in the matter of several days.

That song brought him the glory in 1985 after Yaremchuk performed it together with Pysanka. After that Dvorsky was recognized as equal in rights singer and started to sing his own songs. For his songs Dvorsky was awarded with the Oblast Komsomol prize.
