"In my opinion, it is difficult to overestimate Charles Aznavour's contribution to the genre of French chanson - this is one of the pillars of this genre, a new perception of the French chanson of the 20th century. A man who not only continued the best traditions of this genre, but also said absolutely his word. Charles Aznavour is already a magnitude in itself, as well as Jacques Brel, Sylvie Vartan and other French chanson performers who have become classics of this genre, some standards that many performers are guided by. And the French chanson is a non-dying genre, it's a national French stage, which in France is as popular as a Russian song or a Russian stage in Russia, "he said.
The music critic also noted that the singer until the last day did not part with the music.
"Despite the fact that it was obvious that he was physically hard for him, this" sacred love for music ", about which Alla Pugacheva sang and sang, she always existed in a concentrated form. He lived a scene, not even in his best condition, he could abandon many things, but not from coming to the stage and giving his creativity to people, "he concluded.
The French chansonnier Charles Aznavour died on the 95th year of his life.
