The premiere of the video version of the concert Aslan Tkhakumacheva "Si guryshle shehu" ("The Secret of My Love")
On February 22, 2020 in Nalchik, on the stage of the House of Culture of Trade Unions, a solo concert took place Aslan Tkhakumacheva... The guests of the evening were: Khasan Sokhov, Arnella Keldieva, Lorianna Dorogova, Oksana Khakulova, Dina Kharadurova and the Zvezdochka Exemplary Folk Dance Ensemble.
Aslan Tkhakumachev told us about how the preparations for the concert went, what atmosphere reigned in the hall, and what songs were performed.
How was the preparation for the concert going? Why did you decide to host a solo program?
The concert "Si Guryshle Shehu" is a creative process that lasted almost a whole year. Work on yourself, on the style of performance, on the image. And this concert is the annual event that helps me evaluate the quality of my work. It is the audience and their reaction that best evaluate the path I have traveled, their emotions, energy, burning eyes that charge me with energy and the desire to create! My songs are mostly lyrical in nature, and I constantly collaborate with authors, composers, looking for new motives and old, close to everyone, truths.
Authors such as Hasan Sokhov, Aslan Mamiev, Anzor Khaupa, Muradin Dumanov, can perfectly embody texts in a filigree lyrical motive. And Aslan Mamiev is the person who can always pick up exactly those notes, feelings that I experience in each work. He really was able to create a repertoire for me and make many listeners fall in love with my songs. Many compositions performed by me at the concert belong to the pen of Aslan Mamiev.
What compositions were performed that evening?
The concert program was not entirely devoted to the theme of love for the fair half, I tried to touch upon love for the Motherland, and love for my mother, father, brother and sister. There were poems with a special meaning associated with life. Indeed, love can truly manifest itself in different forms. The concert featured many new songs performed for the first time.
The concert program is called "Si gurishle shchehu", why did you choose this name? What unites the songs that have become part of the concert program?
Why "Si guryshle shehu", you ask? Because it seems to me that the translation itself says that "The Secret of my Love" is mentioned above. The songs that I performed at this concert combine different feelings and emotions that I have in me: these are sincere respectful attitudes towards elders, towards my relatives, towards my Motherland and my environment.
How was the concert, how would you rate it yourself?
It was very exciting, and it went in a way that was not expected. It became easier in my soul when I gave myself to the viewer and upon completion I realized that such an involved, grateful and empathic audience is a great success, success! It was a unique feeling of unity, they gave a lot of warm emotions and energy! I am very grateful to all those who shared this evening with our team then.
How important was the concert to you?
You know, this is probably very important, because for an artist it is like a challenge, a challenge to what you have achieved, what you can, how your fans will appreciate you. This is basically a growth point for a performer. Such events allow you to see and give an objective assessment of your work, because the audience is the people thanks to whom you are called an artist.
Who participated in the organization of the concert?
We organized it as a team: authors, composers, sound engineers, cameramen, dancers, my fellow singers, everyone who is not indifferent to my work. This, of course, and Ruslan Keshokov - my friend, who was engaged in advertising and PR of this event, all the preparations from sound and light to the staging of this concert. The script was written by our beloved colleague, an actress of the Kabardian theater, Fatima Chekhmakhova, who performed it with co-host Vladimir Timizhev.
What would you like to wish the audience?
I hope that all those who for some reason could not attend my concert will watch its video version with pleasure. I would like to wish you pleasant viewing and good mood! All goodness, peace and peace of mind! Love, create, and the world will become much warmer!
