ESCplus has had the chance to talk to Madara, finalist of this year’s Latvian national selection for Eurovision 2018. She will perform “Esamība” at the final of Supernova, that will take place tomorrow.
Watch the interview below:
MADARA (Madara Fogelmane) was born and raised in Jelgava. She started writing poetry already in her early childhood and later on she took up the cello studies. Her Alma Mater is Brussels Royal Conservatory and The Conservatorium van Amsterdam where she did her postgraduate studies developing her cello playing skills guided by such excellent and world-renowned professors as Olsi Leka (Albania), Jeroen den Herder (The Netherlands) and Gavriel Lipkind (Israel). However, MADARA always considers Latvia her home and constantly longs for it. MADARA believes that musical instrument reflects what one really is, YOUR true ESAMIBA or existence.
