PJ Harvey announces Radio 3 World Routes Academy’s youngest-ever protégé

Tonight, at a special event at the BBC Broadcasting House Radio Theatre in London, internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter PJ Harvey announces the appointment of 17-year-old Fidan Hajiyeva, a self-taught singer in the Azeri tradition, as the 2013 World Routes Academy pupil, with Azerbaijani music master Gochaq Askarov as her mentor.

Too bad it was fully booked, would have been worth the hour and a half drive into London ..... but decided to go without a ticket in hand anyway and ....... got in :-)

Polly didn't sing or play any instrument, she chatted with the presenter for a good few minutes before announcing the winner of the 2013 World Routes Academy. She was dressed all in black, sleeveless shirt, above ankle trousers, and boots. Her hair was different from any previous style I've seen, about three inches below the shoulder and kinda frizzy/crimped in a most adorable way. There was a professional photgrapher taking pictures throughout the show so the photos should be up on BBC Radio 3's website in the next couple of days, then you'll be able to see for yourself what I meant by my mangled description.

^ I adored your description
I'm so in need of her thank you

sanvean.....good man

.....woman ;-)

btw there was no mention of any forthcoming Polly projects, she only discussed how world music affects her.

^ sorry just a figure of speech and funnily enough sounds less patronising than "good girl" strange eh!!
Good-on-ya regardless and with an hour half trip on a whim shows balls...... HaHa there I go again

Well now I'm just really excited to see her hair.

Priorities.

wow, listening to her voice again makes me melt
hope she will give a new record soon

it starts at 24' http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/player/b01pz96j

it made my day (or evening) to listen to this, even though it was only a brief moment.
by the way, has anyone seen fit to snag this? one more precious moment to preserve in our Pollyphonic archives.

not a picture of this event has surfaced yet, right?

I was enjoyed this event so much

The contest RADIO 3’S is very helpful to bring the actual talents in front of the world. Last year my friend got this award and he was really talented personalities. We believe this is the best platform he can get to explore the talents he have.
