YULIA SAMOYLOVA – THE FLAME IS STILL BURNING

We are not sure if she will indeed participate for Russia at the 2018 Eurovision song contest but ESC Kaz sent us some news on her.

Yulia Samoylova today will perform at Maison de l’UNESCO in Paris as guest of a special program devoted to the Disability Day.

The event is initiated by UNESCO Artist for Peace and Emeritus of the Russian Federation, pop singer and actress Zarifa Mgoyan, known as Zara, who has a long-standing commitment to charities and programmes helping people with disabilities. The aim of these charities and programmes is to involve children, who are visually impaired and hard of hearing, in artistic activities and to raise awareness of the difficulties they encounter.

As part of this year’s Disability Day programme, Zara will perform live in Paris with the participation of artists with disabilities. Accompanied by Yulia Samoylova, Valentin Tkachenko and the ensemble ‘Singing Hands’, they will perform a repertoire of beautiful songs about love and friendship in French, Serbian, English, Russian and sign language

Artist thoughts by Moscow Eurofriend (Designed by Carolina Añazgo Leo):

Hello to all my good-believing friends! I’m Moscow Eurofriend and making people believe in good things around the Song Contest is what I’m best known for! I love to create positive thoughts and feelings by looking the good qualities in every friend around. And even in the darkest hour, I help the other Eurofriends to believe in their hopes and dreams, everything we do for Eurovision can reached beyond the top of the scoreboard!

Yulia might be a wheelchair user since childhood, but she has the courage to sing beautiful songs that impressed crowds here, there in everywhere around Russia and she’s a very special Eurostar for me. Something friendmazing and good to believe it and you can agree with that! Looking foward what happens in May, there’s so many good things to believe in each song of this Eurovision!” – By Moscow Eurofriend
