Baku / 09.03.19 / Turan: At the Eurovision Song Contest 2019 in Tel Aviv, Azerbaijan will be represented by singer and composer Chingiz Mustafayev, reported the Public Broadcasting Company.
The singer will perform on the song "Truth" ("Truth") by the Bulgarian-Austrian composer Borislav Milanov.
"I confess, I was not convinced that Truth" suits Chingiz, because he loves flamenco and guitar more. However, after a personal acquaintance, my opinion completely changed. He is an incredibly passionate musician and singer. Together we added an oriental feeling to his national style," said Milanov.
It should be noted that the author's song was chosen during a national qualifying tour, organized by Public Television in January of this year, among 350 works sent from different countries.
"Truth" is a song about stinging love. There is no place for truth. One of the couple betrayed love, and puts the other before the choice to accept the situation as it is or dispel the illusion of love.
Chingiz Mustafayev, who is seriously preparing for Eurovision-2019, changed his style and distanced from flamenco and guitar. Chingiz Mustafayev was born in Moscow. At the age of six, he moved to Gazakh with his family. As a teenager, I already played the guitar and composed songs.
Later he moved to Baku with his mother and brother. Here he became the winner of the Azerbaijani version of the program "Pop Idol", gaining recognition and popularity.
The singer represented Azerbaijan in 2013 at the new wave competition in Jurmala. In 2016, he participated in the project "Voice of Ukraine". Chingis loves dogs and traveling, meditates in the open air, practices kung fu, and enjoys cycling. -06D--
