Margarita Biragova: “I felt cramped in the Caucasus ...”

Popular singer, as well as poet and composer Margarita Biragova Received several offers of cooperation from Moscow production centers. She is offered a job by the author of songs for Russian performers.

“Of course, the prospect of writing songs for Russian pop stars is very tempting. But only after discussing mutually beneficial conditions will it be possible to appreciate the seriousness of the work. The fact is that it became quite cramped for me in the Caucasus, and the fees were small. And since I still intend to move to the capital in the future, it’s time to think about a more profitable job,” says the artist.

The material side of the issue, although important, is still not decisive. Margarita has long admitted that as an author, she has stopped growing and naturally, as a creative and seeking person, this gnaws at her. The maestro's soul demands more.

“Writing for the needs of the Caucasian listener is a boring business - there is no room for wingspan. Of course, there are performers and listeners who value songs with meaning rather than repeated syllables, but they are few. But writing more significant compositions for a local audience is “not worth the candle,” Biragova shared.

We will only find out next month how the situation will develop. The artist will fly to the capital to perform at a concert on May 19, and then meet with the management of production centers and discuss the terms of cooperation.
