”He is one of the great pianists what I ever heard of ..” -Ahmad Jamal -
Elegantly blending his classical knowledge, Azerbaijan’s traditional folk “Mugham” and his jazz influences, Shahin created his own unique and accomplished musical universe, among which he combines eastern and western cultures. A gentle wave of exotic melodies, powerful and sharp harmonies, capricious eastern rhythms struck by an American Jazz lightning, majestic and vigorous.
Shahin did his first tour in America and Europe in 1997 with different projects: trio, solo, quartet, etc.. There have also been experiments; adding different instruments to the group, including his own voice. Shahin has recorded three live albums: Live in Moscow, Live in Prague Castle and Jz'Mu, Live in Baku. There is also the experimental album Eternal Way, and Bayati, recorded while living and touring in America and released on the French Bee Jazz label.
A defining moment in Shahin’s work and career was his meeting with Ahmad Jamal in 2014, who rated his music highly and is representing Shahin to the world.
Jamal also co-produced his 2017 album “Emanation”, which received UK Vibe award as “Best Jazz Albums of 2017”, album was released on the French label Jazz Village, PIAS. In 2019, September 13th on Jazz Village, Shahin released his album “ From Baku to New York City”, produced by Ahmad Jamal. Shahin is today an icon for Jazz and has received enthusiastic comments from worldwide critics and audiences.
