If it is a song, it has to convey my thoughts. I had a period in my life when everything was changing rapidly and that is how this song came to be,” Mashurov said.
The musician added that the competition was not solely for beginners but there were well-established guitarist participating too. “To my surprise I discovered musicians whose lessons I studied when learning to play the guitar. They are very serious guys and a very serious competition,” Mashurov noted.
