Few people know what it's like in appearance looks Alexander Shevchenko, and his songs of Alsou ("Winter Dream", "Spring"), Alena Sviridova ("Pink Flamingos") and other popular artists such as the CIS conducted. Alexander even tried to sing, creating a group of "Deja Vu" and even released his debut album. Standard of 1998 dashed all periods plans. Singer and composer had to write songs for other artists to work in their management. Good cooperation with Alsou Alexander was a successful businessman and has decided to pursue his solo career. He released the first album in Sweden with the musicians of the "ABBA" and "A-ha" recorded ... Song from the new album at the show presents instead Shevchenko Alla Pugacheva "Christmas meetings" in Kiev. "I took a Alain Sviridov produced in 1992" - made very little Russian stars of the parties "Christmas meetings" Alla Pugacheva in Kiev. Among the guests, or close relatives or friends. You must also consult invited? - The selection of artists - always purely subjective view Alla - says the "facts" Alexander. - Therefore, all must be taken into the show involved. Pugacheva asked me in the summer when we were on the radio, "Alla" two-hour interview, the recording. "Shevchenko, you are the most spoiled of all musicians", - she said. "Why?" - I asked. "What do you want me to say, not yet written the song?" - Asked Alla. Well, here's a thought. . Hurry We know for a long time and worked together. Danced to "Christmas meetings" in 1997 with Christina Orbakajte so fervently in my song "It will be as you want ...". I had just published the first record. And then a year later came the default. I survive the team, "Deja Vu" in these conditions, it is extremely hard! Cover with a record company, "Union", went to the bottom of the sponsors of concerts was not ... But we also need a safe place to pay to support a family. And just at that moment a call from my friend Valera Belotserkovsky: "Alexander, I have to write a girl, you need a little unusual for them!" I did listen to her record company. Quiet, very sensual. At first I thought it was singing a grown woman, but it turned out that the singer is 15 years old only. This girl was Alsou. A month later I wrote their first hit, "Winter Dream" and then "spring", "Sometimes", "Together and forever." We helped her to become a popular singer. After the first round of the audience gave them credibility, as his time Alla Borisovna. - You're so pathetic discussion, but Alsou his voice, to put it mildly, not very strong. - Not powerful, but very nice! In Mark Bernes voice not extremely power, but as he said! The main thing is that the audience believed Alsou. Together with Alsou Several projects in which to invest much more money - Honestly, it seems that they still helped more, the financial support of his father. - This is an important fact. But at the same time running a lot Alsou projects to invest where much more money. Who now remembers the singer? In case it was not Alsou humor or fun, but the real work. The girl, who is studying at a college in London, at the first opportunity flew to Moscow not to mom and dad, and in the studio, where she is waiting for someone else's uncle and aunt. Here we spent 10-12 hours: make recorded songs, arrangements ... So they flew a few months, and then suddenly came into the studio, standing for half an hour and said, "I can not sing today, something that you do not want?". Gathered the entire team (almost 20), and I said: "These people are ready to download, tomorrow they have to take a clip and go on tour, if you do not want to work hard to be a singer - .. Go .. music for us - it is a profession that nourishes us not, entertainment is something we do not, "After a pause, she said:" I understand that the singer is ".. - Still, she was forced to become a singer? - Alsou singing for a long time: for themselves, for family celebrations. Once at his brother's wedding she performed a song from the repertoire of Whitney Houston. Guests were thrilled. One of them said Ralif Safin: "Wow, what a voice with your daughter, it will show my friend the producer?" This was the producer and my friend Valera Belotserkovsky. He committed Vadik Boikova and was an avid fan of my team, "Deja Vu". We started to work on. I remember when "Winter Dream" wrote - the first great success - in the studio came Irina Allegrova. They look very excited, "Sasha, why are you such a song he gave this girl? Weak you singing! And I would" break "the country!" But it seems to me that it was the song "Winter Dream" when it performed Irina. - Similarly, perhaps there would be no "Pink Flamingos," which they performed his Alain Sviridov? - Sviridov I took produce back in '92 because Allen - the only girl on stage who wrote all the songs himself! She has also Sasha Marshall together. If I text my "Pink Flamingos" was, I realized that it can only run Sviridov. They even joked about it: "I used to be a sheep, and now a flamingo." At the end of our contract, we were good friends. Now families are friends, spend holidays together and wonder how we managed without money, then relax. The clip was removed almost a cent, though it was hard work: to take underwater shots at the pool, saxophonist and extensive decorations. Spent a total of nine thousand dollars. Used to work for the great show to show. After producing a business has become, suddenly wanted to go to the "Mercedes". First, to think the money. "ALSU really groin, but then she had enough Wanted Love Family." - Also makes you hoped to earn good money, promoting Alsou - In fact, we were not rich. I, for example, was a stable salary - thousand dollars per month. Not so much. Alsou father originally wanted not pamper you, decided that the project to earn money. Could afford a girl from a wealthy family, not to work, and it has become a locomotive taschivshim, for large structure. It's been a crazy work! Especially after touring in small towns. True, the question of life, we have fixed it. Company "LUKOIL" could, the management team, which included his father Alsou leave much: We always welcome filed in a good hotel. - Your team began to fall apart in 2002? - Valery leave because he is not enough money! As we try to not pay the project Alsou for themselves. At their head was not a father figure. He wanted her daughter earned as a brand, not as a singer in concert. Needed a good manager who would look for lucrative contracts. - Found? - We have a lucrative contract with a Japanese company with a French brand of household appliances, as well - with the studio recording "universal". Alsou plowed really. The first Russian artists won a prestigious prize in the "Euro Vision". In 2000, in Stockholm, was the second. And then she suddenly had enough. She was tired. She wanted to love and family. Finally, she came from a big happy family, which had its own principles: listen to his father's marriage, after marriage - her husband. So she did. And I feel happy. - She's not on tour? - All the time Alsou dedicated family. Do not play live. Her record recorded a year ago, lost among many others. "Record of a song with famous musicians worth about € 9000" - Now you do not have to write for them? - I write for me. Alsou was 12 years on tour and it was for my mother and my father, and for the producer. Alsou I saw a lot more than my daughter. During this time I have collected new songs that has to fulfill itself. - In a time of crisis is not dangerous to start new projects? - Apparently, I'm the same crisis manager and author. It is born in times of my best songs. I understand that as an artist has to start from scratch. Few remember personally, but my songs are sung. And that's important. After all, now divorced many stars, the privacy to discuss the people and do not know the songs. And I want the hall resounded with me. - You have no musical training? - I do not know how I get to write. My mother - a music teacher - forced to play piano, but I did come, running away to the sport. This went on until I get a severe spinal injury. For some time I was bedridden. And then, at the age of 12 he wrote his first song. Guys come provedyvat me with a guitar. I've learned to annoy, and finally began to write. As girls and spurred me to bring, new masterpieces (laughs) create. And then chose music seriously off the evening jazz courses at the Leningrad Conservatory of Music Mussorgsky. This made it possible to write music competently. - New album you recorded with musicians of the "ABBA", "A-ha", a famous singer Celine Dion. This is probably a very expensive? - On average, the recording of a track, "turnkey" cost about € 9,000. It's okay, because the album Songs 11th Meet with these people and reduce the purchase price to help a little, me friend Leonid Gutkin. Not to be confused with the letter "g" to be confused in the middle of the word! - This is so important? - Experience shows that much (laughs). One of my school friend grandmother heard the name, said: "Dochechka in his name in the middle of the" t "or" d d "When?" "That you no longer go to him!" - "T" grandmother "-" Well, then, a boy from a good family. " Now this boy from a good family have a studio in Sweden, where we worked. After the new year we go on a tour of Russia, has scheduled 150 concerts! People buy tickets. I know nothing about the charges in the 20, 30 or 50 Euro dream. Spoiled rich corporate actors. For the possibility of pat on the back more than the present work are paid. Oligarchs called Madonna or Celine Dion. - Are not you call? - About a year ago I was on the big "Millionaire Show" playing with famous musician Chris de Burgh. Sing with a guitar in front of the moneybags. Frankly, my fee is almost no different than the compensation that was Chris. Not complain about life. I am the proud owner of an apartment on the first floor at Patriarch's Ponds in Moscow and at home in the mountains, have their shares in the recording studio in London. I have a man who can afford to can to breed horses secured. In the summer my family and I moved into a house situated on the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus. This must be a gift for Christmas. Author of the first album from 150 thousand dollars. I owe nothing to anyone, packed creativity.
