Tolegen Mukhamedzhanov is a man of rare talent and amazing destiny. He is not just a composer, he is an artist sounds, capable of turning music into a living emotion, into history, into the breath of time.

Born in 1948  in the Beskaragai region, he did not hold an instrument in his hands from childhood, knew not from his youth that he would become a composer. At twenty-five years old, he entered the conservatory, not knowing how to play the piano, but years later

after hard work, he became a Lenin Scholar and passed the exams for the Moscow Conservatory. This was the first step towards leaving a mark in art.

In 1983 his first author's disc was released in Moscow. Soon he headed the State Academic Opera and Ballet Theater named after Abai. Later he oversaw the culture of Astana, was involved in legislative affairs activities, but music always remained his main language. He created symphonies, operas, string quartets, wrote music for theater and cinema. His works are filled with deep meaning and reflect the philosophy of the Kazakh people.

Under the pseudonym Jean Luna, he published a collection of poems, and his rock opera "Zheruyik" became a cultural event. Author's evenings attracted full houses from Almaty to Moscow. His work has become the voice of the time, and he himself is a man whose music penetrates into the very soul.

Today his works are performed on the best stages, his music remains eternal. Talent, hard work and sincerity these are the three notes of which the symphony of his life is composed.
