The winner of the “Slavianski Bazaar” Yernar Sadirbayev known by his stage name AMRE represented Kazakhstan at ABU TV Song Festival. This year, the international festival was held online. Performers from 12 countries took part in it. The candidacy of AMRE for participation in the festival was supported by “Khabar” media holding, which is part of the Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union. The music video of the Kazakh singer for the song “Omir – teniz” (Waves of life) presented for participation in the festival was shot on the Sharyn canyon, Almaty region. According to the director, its concept and idea have a special deep meaning.
“We chose the location of Sharyn for the music video for the song “Waves of life” by AMRE. We wanted to showcase the sights of Kazakhstan and make a philosophical approach to it. We show that each person has their own hardships, but this all will resolve. We wanted to show that we are one. Overcoming difficulties, we come back to normal life after quarantine,” said Galymzhan Bayazitov, the music video director.
