Muslim Magomaev. Biography
The cause of death of the singer, as was later said in all newspapers and news, is coronary heart disease. He died in 2008, on October 25, and 4 days later he was buried in Baku, on the Honorary Burial Alley. The tomb of Magomayev is next to the tomb of his grandfather, also a great artist - conductor and composer.
Muslim's father was an artist, and his mother a dramatic actress. As you can see, the whole family was very creative, so it’s not at all surprising that the biography of Muslim Magomayev is completely connected with the scene.
He was born on 08/17/1942 in the city of Baku. His maternal grandmother was half Russian. Speaking about his nationality, Magomayev claimed that Azerbaijan was his "father", and Russia was his "mother." And this is true: he loved both countries equally.
The biography of Muslim Magomayev is very curious, although his path to fame cannot be called thorny. But there were some difficulties. His father died at the front, and his mother after the war left her son in the care of his uncle. Muslim went to school at the conservatory. There the boy’s talent was noticed by a cello teacher. V.Ts. Anshelievich began to give Magomaev vocals. And when he was 15 years old, secretly from his family in the Baku House of Culture, the debut performance of a novice artist took place.
After grade 10, he enrolled in a music school. As a 20-year-old boy, he became famous. Muslim Magomayev spoke at the Kremlin Palace of Congresses, and after that absolutely the entire Soviet Union knew him. His voice captivated everyone: ordinary listeners, professional musicians, party leaders, and leaders of the country.
The biography of Muslim Magomayev was very successful. A year later, he performed at the Moscow Conservatory. There was a real full house! Magomaev skillfully combined in his performances the performance of both classical works (Mozart, Hegel, Bach) and pop songs.
In those years, the artist toured extensively throughout the Soviet Union. He received recognition not only from us, but also in Cannes (Golden Plate award), and in France (Olympia), and in the United States and Poland.
At the age of 31, Magomayev became a people's artist of the USSR. He took part in all the Blue Lights. Khrushchev, Brezhnev, and Andropov liked his work. People’s love didn’t fade even in the 90s, when after the collapse of the USSR , newly made “stars” began to appear. However, when he was 56 years old, he decided to stop the concert activity, although his voice was still very strong and clear.
The artist spent the last years of his life in Moscow with his wife (famous opera singer) Tamara Sinyavskaya. In addition to singing, Magomayev was very fond of painting, writing various essays, playing the piano. Everything worked out perfectly for him, but he did not call his vocal performance anything but his “hobby”.
This is the biography of Muslim Magomayev - the great Russian and Azerbaijani artist.
