Dear viewers!

We are very sad to release this news, however...

In connection with the tragic events of January and the state of emergency introduced in Almaty, and now within the framework of Decree No. 1 dated 13.01.2022 of the Chief State Sanitary Doctor of Almaty, we are forced to announce the cancellation of all January events.

 

This week, we have already prepared a new repertoire, taking into account the postponement of canceled performances, but since there is no exact information for how long the quarantine measures will last, the postponements become irrelevant.

Please show understanding to our colleagues who now, due to numerous cancellations, will have a very heavy workload.

 

2. If the tickets were purchased at the theater box office.

For a refund, you will need to contact the theater box office directly and have the original tickets and an identity document with you.

Opera in 3 acts

The performance has two intermissions.

Opera performed in Kazakh with synchronized Russian and English subtitles

 

The opera «Abay» - one of the best achievements of the opera art of Kazakhstan, the greatest musical and stage work of the three founders of Kazakh modern culture - composers A. Zhubanov, L. Khamidi, writer M. Auezov, still seems to be a certain result of the ascent to the heights of opera excellence in classical world understanding.

The libretto to the opera based on novel «The Way of Abaу» was written by Mukhtar Auezov. The hero of the novel is the famous Kazakh enlightener, philosopher, poet, writer, public figure, the founder of modern Kazakh written literature, the reformer of culture in the spirit of rapprochement with Russian and European culture - Abay Kunanbaev (1845-1904).

The music was authored by an outstanding musicologist, conductor, one of the founders of music education in Kazakhstan, Akhmet Zhubanov and composer, author of many songs of romances and waltzes Latif Hamidi.

The first director of the performance was Kurmanbek Zhandarbekov, the artist-decorator was Kulakhmet Khodzhikov, and the conductor was Leonid Shargorodsky. The first leading actor was the outstanding opera baritone People's Artist of the USSR Rishat Abdullin (1916-1988). He will have many more vivid images in his career, including Onegin in the opera Eugene Onegin, Targin in Yer-Targyn and Kozhagul in Birzhan and Sarah, however he will play Abai's part for the longest time, until the mid-80s. years. Later, the image of the main character of the opera was embodied by Ermek Serkebaev and Gafiz Yesimov. Kulyash Bayseitova, Shabal Beisekova and Roza Zhamanova were inimitable in the party Azhar. Anuarbek Umbetbaev, Baygali Dosymzhanov, Nariman Karazhigitov and Alibek Dnishev more than once embodied the image of Aidar in love.
