January 31 during the "Violin and Her Friends" concert, audiences will witness the ongoing bond and deep respect between teacher and students.

It should be noted that many successful musicians, trained by a wonderful teacher, Professor Askar Duisenbayev, today work in the most prestigious creative groups of the world, as well as in the capital's orchestra "Astana Opera".

"Askar Samratovich Duisenbayev is my mentor. It is not without reason they say: "A good teacher has good students". His rich experience and wise advice became a light on the way of many young talents. Therefore, the idea of the upcoming concert is a tribute to our teacher. He is a very profound musician, subtly feeling the slightest nuances of psychological states conveyed by composers in music. Askar Samratovich is a demanding person not only to his students, but also to himself. Even after graduation he continues to be a teacher for us, an example of true service to art. I would also like to tell about Dana Galimovna, a wonderful musician, who will perform the piano part at our concert. Thanks to her support, sensitivity and musicality, without doubts and fear one gives oneself completely to the music during the performance." - violinist Akerke Ali shared her thoughts.

Askar Duisenbaev himself will perform at the upcoming concert, as well as his students, who are laureates of international competitions. Among them are Akerke Ali, artists of "Astana Opera" orchestra Asel Zhakiyanova, Asem Zhakparova, Shalkar Zheldibai, artists of "Astana Ballet" orchestra Talshyn Keshilbaeva, Saniya Isabekova, Ardak Kaimuldinova and others. In addition, Askar Duisenbayev's daughters Adela and Rayhan Duisenbayev, who continue the musical path of their father and are his followers, will take part in the musical evening.

The participants of the concert will demonstrate their skills in duets, quartets and, of course, with solo numbers. On the stage of the Chamber Hall named after Kulyash Baiseitova will sound famous works of Kazakh and foreign composers, such as M. Sagatov, E. Brusilovsky, P. Tchaikovsky, A. Vivaldi, N. Paganini, K. Sen-S. Paganini, C. Saint-Saëns and M. de Falla.

"For us, students of Askar Samratovich, violin is not just an instrument. Our mentor taught us to treat it with great trepidation, so much so that it has become an important part of our lives. That is why the title of the concert "The Violin and its Friends" was not chosen by chance. I invite everyone to share with us this event filled with respect and gratitude to the teacher, as well as boundless love for high art. I am sure that the gentle and enchanting sound of the violin will touch the hearts of listeners and leave an unforgettable impression." - concluded Akerke Ali.
