Selected results of optical high-resolution spectral observations 2002-2004 are briefly reviewed. Optical line profile variations were detected during X-ray flare. The comparison of observed and non-LTE model profiles for HI, HeI and MgII is given taking into account tidal distortion of Cyg X-1 optical component and its illumination by X-ray emission of secondary one. We set limits on the optical component main characteristics Teff = 30400±500K, log g = 3.31±0.07 and overabundance of He and C, N, O, Mg, Al, Si, S, Fe and Zn by using spectra of 2003-2004. The Doppler images were reconstructed by an improved Doppler tomography method on the base of HeII4686A profiles of 2003 (“soft” X-ray state) and 2004 (“hard” X-ray state). It allowed putting a limitation on the black hole to supergiant mass ratio 1/4 < M/MO < 1/3. The photometric and spectral variations point to the supergiant parameters changes on the time scale of tens of years. Line profile non-LTE simulations lead to the conclusion that the star radius has grown about 1-4% from 1997 to 2003-2004 and the temperature decreased by 1300-2400K.
