Diana Ahmetzhan : Hello, dear viewers . Meet our guest today on Tansholpan .World famous Turkish singer Tarkan !
A : Welcome!
T : Thank you.
Q: How was the concert? Everything was as planned? How did the people of Astana greet you?
T : The concert was held at a high level . I didnt expect there would be so much people . And I am very glad that I have fans in Kazakhstan. Youth were dancing and singing with me . Is there more that the artist may wish for ?
Q: What are your impressions about Astana ? Generally , this is not your first visit here .
T : I remember that I came here six years ago. But the whole city was under construction. Today, things are quite different. Everywhere there are new large buildings . But the bad thing is that it is very cold here. Because of the concert , not to catch a cold throat , I didn't go outside to the street. There is no time to fully explore the city, but I think I can find the time to view the new capital little bit.
A : The coming year is very important for you. Since you are planning to go on a world tour . Is there much in your program ? To what countries are going to ?
T : Yes , it is the truth that it's gonna be a very difficult year. I plan to give concerts in many countries in America, Australia and in European countries. And I'm also finishing a new album. I am writing 2-3 more new songs. If I have time I will release the album soon, not making wait too long. There will be songs in English and Turkish.
A : In the internet it is written that Tarkan is always one step ahead of other artists , feels a step ahead of the rest. What can you say about this?
T : Well, since I live a completely open life, people write a lot of things about me. Of course, I will not hide that I am pleased of that opnion. Of course, the artist has to work a lot , I do not sit , I eager for something new . If do not surprise people time to time , they may lose interest in you . My main principle is to please the listener and to meet the demand . Soon I will make a surprise for my audience. Soon you will see it yourself .
D : What do you closer to : writing songs or singing them? Isnt it difficult to combine the two things at once?
T : I am a person who was born to sing. When I'm on stage I am inspired. As a composer , I wrote a lot of songs . Even if it is not professional , I try to write the words myself for the new singles. But, I was born to sing.
A : Do you want to record a duet with other artists in the future?
T : You asked like you know about it . Yes, I am gonna do so . "Haydi o zaman" song will be released in February with famous Turkish singer Nazan Ondcel .
D: I have one more question for you: the relationship between Kazakhstan and Turkey each time is getting better and better. We have one history, one culture, customs and traditions , too . What can you say about the relationship between the two countries ?
T : Of course , I'm glad that the Turkish and Kazakh people are so friendly . Today when I went on stage , the audience understood me . I feel that they are like brothers . I felt a special connection with the Kazakh people. I believe that our relations should be further developed.
A : The New Year is coming. What can you say to our viewers?
T : Recently, there are more problems associated with the Earth , with nature. We must pay attention to the pollution of nature , I believe that a man must protect mother nature and not pollute it. We must unite , strive to preserve the wealth of nature . In the New Year , I wish you all happiness , prosperity , goodness , let your family will be happy. I also wish you all love .
A : Unfortunately, our conversation comes to an end. The next year, I wish you to reach new heights , new songs. Thank you very much !
T : You , too, thank you! And I'm very glad I came here . My greetings.
At the end Tarkan says in Kazakh : Dear Kazakhstani people , Happy New Year! New happiness to you . Thank you!
