Republican Competition of Traditional Performance in Almaty
The Amre Kashaubayev Republican Competition has brought together traditional performers from across Kazakhstan. The three-day creative contest is taking place on the stage of the Zhambyl Kazakh State Academic Philharmonic in Almaty, 24.kz reports.

The main criterion for evaluating participants is not only technical skill but also a deep understanding of the work. > Naturally, performance skill, diction and the development of the image come first. A very important point is the interpretation of the work, that is, the song must not only be sung, it must be lived and presented with dignity, so that the listener understands what this work is about
- explained Birzhan Khasangaliyev, deputy director of the Zhambyl Philharmonic.
The competition demonstrates the relevance of traditional performing art in the country's contemporary cultural life.
