It was such a special meeting of Dimash, his family, friends, colleagues, and thousands of fans from different countries around the world that took place in Istanbul at the large Besiktas stadium.
The program of the "Stranger" show that evening was embellished with performances by guests and friends of the birthday boy. Musicians with world-renowned names from Turkey, Kazakhstan, and the USA came to congratulate the artist.
A special guest of Dimash's solo concert, singer, composer, songwriter, guitarist Haluk Levent, a musician who revived Turkish folk hard rock, widely known and loved by the people not only for his creative but also charitable activities, welcomed the Kazakh artist to Turkish soil on behalf of the host country and presented Dimash with a guitar.
Rocker Haluk and classical vocalist Dimash performed one of the most popular Turkish songs, "Gesi Bağlari," from the stage to the accompaniment of an acoustic guitar.
Another guest of the concert was the famous DJ Burak Yeter, with whom Dimash has been working together since the first concert of the Kazakh musician in Turkey last year, where their song "Weekend" premiered. This bright, upbeat composition was played again today to thunderous applause from the audience.
A special guest of the concert was Kazakh composer, Dimash's friend, Renat Gaisin. The song "Қайран Елім" was performed by Dimash to the accompaniment of maestro Gaisin on the piano and the drawn-out voice of the kobyz in the hands of Olzhas Kurmanbek, deeply revealing the artists' concerns for the fate of the people.
On this anniversary evening, for the first time, Dimash performed on the same stage with a guest from Los Angeles, composer, producer, and author of many famous musical works, Nathan Wang.
To the accompaniment of the composer, Dimash performed the soundtrack to Jackie Chan's great film "Vanguard" for the first time from the stage. Dimash recorded the song "Happy" in 2020 as the final song of the film. Dimash and Nathan's performance was a big surprise for the audience, who enthusiastically received the virtuoso piano and seemingly light vocals in Chinese.
The program of the show features prominently the works of Dimash's great friend, composer Igor Krutoy. The majestic cantata "Olimpico" and the skillful vocalise "Ave Maria" sounded very beautiful and broad under the arches of the huge venue. The work "Stranger", combining classical sound with national Kazakh flavor, is deservedly the title song of the show, reflecting the creative tandem of Dimash and Igor Krutoy.
Throughout the concert, the artist's fans recalled performances, concerts, and events from Dimash's life to the already hit songs "Battle Of Memory" and "Sos D'un Terrien En Détresse". They were inspired and mesmerized by every sound of the national instruments in "Stranger" and "Дурдараз".
Dimash's original compositions "Ұмытылмас Күн", the largest work "The Story Of One Sky", as well as the new ones, in terms of time of appearance and style, "Smoke" and "When I`Ve Got You" also sounded special today. And on "Махаббат Бер Маған", the words of which many Dears know by heart, the whole hall sang the chorus instead of the artist, while he proudly held the flag of Kazakhstan handed to him from the hall.
