The long-awaited pop solo concert “Believe My Song” by the People’s Artist of Azerbaijan, soloist of the Bolshoi Theater of Russia, the golden voice of the legendary KVN team “Guys from Baku” Elchin Azizov will take place on May 3 at the Heydar Aliyev Palace, Day.Az reports.
– Elchin, on May 3 your first solo concert will take place in Baku at the Heydar Aliyev Palace with the variety program “Believe my song.” Please tell us about the concert.
– I admit, this is a very long-awaited concert for me. The Heydar Aliyev Palace is associated with an incredibly important stage of my life, with my favorite KVN team “Guys from Baku” and I feel trepidation, thinking that I will soon find myself on my native stage again. Apparently, now the time has come for my solo musical concert, where, of course, there will be jokes. How could we live without them?! I’m looking forward to meeting my native, I would even say home, audience.
– Why did you choose the pop program and not the classical one?
– Over the past years, I have repeatedly come to Baku and performed classical works from my operatic repertoire. Perhaps that’s why I wanted to do my first solo concert with a completely new program, more popular, let’s say. The program will feature everyone’s favorite songs from the repertoire of Muslim Magomayev, as well as songs that I performed as the Magnificent Mandrill on the “Mask” show on NTV. I also included songs by Tofig Kuliev, Polad Bulbuloglu, Lev Leshchenko, Rinat Ibragimov and Jaak Jola. The audience is waiting for a big concert, for which we are actively preparing together with the best pop and jazz musicians of Russia.
– What is your favorite song from Muslim Magomayev’s repertoire?
– For me, all the songs are beautiful. Of course, there is some top favorite and, probably, I can highlight the one that became the name of the concert itself – “Believe my song” to the music of Polad Bulbuloglu with stunning poems by Mikhail Shcherbachenko. I don’t know why, but I fell in love with her. She is close to me in energy, musicality, and condition.
– Is it exciting to perform in your homeland, in your beloved city of Baku?
– It’s always exciting for me to perform, and especially in my homeland. This is excitement, trepidation, and a whole palette of emotions. I will sing at home, and this is always very responsible. I am waiting for my friends, guests, as well as guests of our city, I am waiting for you all on May 3 in Baku at the Heydar Aliyev Palace. Starts at 20:00. Come, let’s spend time together!
