Eurovision 2022: Azerbaijan’s First Rehearsal!

/0 Comments/in , /by

The next artist that sets foot on the Eurovision 2022 stage for his first rehearsal is Nadir Rustamli, representing Azerbaijan with the emotional ballad “Fade To Black“.

Everything about Nadir Rustamli:

Nadir is 22 years old, born on July 8, 1999 in the Salyan area. Graduated from Azerbaijan University of Tourism Management. Although he has been working professionally with music for 4 years, he has been working in this field for 7 years. Apart from singing, he composes, plays the piano and guitar, but is also involved in sports.

She has participated in many domestic competitions, such as the National Student Spring 2019 song contest (first place) and the YouthVision 2019 international song contest (second place). In addition, he is the winner of this year’s “Voice of Azerbaijan”.

The Rehearsal

Nadir sings this powerful ballad from a set of steps that are set up like stadium bleachers, using interesting camera angles as he moves through a routine with a contemporary dancer. The steps then split in half so they can face each other.

It’s REALLY clever, and the moves and lighting really help to give this song extra impact. That’s going to look amazing on TV and in the arena next Thursday – well played, Azerbaijan.
